My InLeo Premium Progress and a 9/11 Anniversary Memorial

in LeoFinance6 days ago

Happy Hump Day everyone. Somehow we've made it to another Wednesday. This week has been flying by for me anyway. At least BTC and Hive prices have both been somewhat better this week even though we are still in the middle of the dreaded month of September. So far this year it hasn't been as bad as many had feared, a trend that I hope continues!

9/11/2001 Anniversary

Today is also the anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks for those of us in the US. It was a horrible day with the destruction of the World Trade Center, the attack on the Pentagon, and the flight crashed in Pennsylvania field by passengers overtaking the terrorist onboard. Overall 2,977 people died according to estimates but it's still not truly known how many died in the collapsed towers even all of these years later. I still remember the events clear as day. It was an event that changed the course of my life as I joined the Army reserves and was involved in military service for roughly twenty years. I send the families of those lost in the attacks and in the wars since my condolences.

Moving on to happier topics...

Wednesday means it's time for an update on my InLeo premium status. For those of you unfamiliar with the program it is a paid service that gives you extra perks here on InLeo. It costs 10 HBD for one month or 100 HBD for the entire year. I've just been doing the month to month version myself. Some of the perks offered includes the ability to create longer threads which is very beneficial. It's easy to run out of room while threading. You can also edits your threads. You can see a more detailed list of perks in the screenshot of my current premium service below.

I meant to try out the AI out this past week to summarize my posts, but to be completely honest I forgot all about it. I'll have to write myself a note and stick it on the monitor this time around!

Another benefit not mentioned in the list above in priority curations on the posts created by InLeo authors. Of course there is no guarantee of curation and it based on quality. Over the last six months I have been using the service and always came out with a profit over my initial investment. So it has made sense to keep subscribing month after month.

Time for an update for this month's premium service since my last renewal. It has been fourteen days as of today since my least renewal. In that time period I have posted twelve posts and received curation form @leo.voter on two of them which sum up to $12.60. Then removing the 55% that goes back to InLeo that leaves me with $5.67. Subtracting that sum from my initial investment of 10 HBD I am still $4.33 in the red.

So I still haven't earned a return on the month's investment, but as I mentioned it's only fourteen days in with nineteen days to go on the period. I will keep you all apprised of the progress of the investment.

There used to be a staked based curation available with InLeo, I'm not sure it that's still a thing or not, anyone happen to know?

DUO token

Some time back I started a new token with @bulliontools and @bitcoinman with the goal of helping onboard and retain new members, and DUO was born. While we are still in the early phases it has grown quickly and currently has over 17,000 Hive Power in the curation account. For those who purchase and stake at least 200 tokens they are rewarded with a daily curation on their quality posts and daily Hive dividends. For those staking over 500 you have the ability to use the tipping bot and give out a DUO tip daily, and in return you also receive the same amount of DUO in your account as well. It pays to tip with DUO!

Right now tokens are one Hive a piece until the current tranche runs out, then it jumps to 1.5 Hive each. So get in early while it's still inexpensive!

That will round up the post of the day. Thank you so much for all of your support, I greatly appreciate it! Please feel free to leave any questions or comments below. Have a great rest of your day!

I haven't gotten a vote from Leo in quite some time. I am guessing it is mainly because I don't use the front end. Even then I am not sure I would. I think I annoyed some people there. Who knows.

@leo.voter curates posts made from Inleo exclusively

Yeah, I figured. I used the front end for a while, but still wasn't getting votes, then they updated it and it became too unstable, so I went back to Peakd.

It's gotten better since then, it's really not too bad to use now.

times fly so fast and it has been 23 years since the tragedy struck. the thing will never be the same again after that. My condolences to all the victims.

Time does fly by doesn't it? How are you doing?

ah shoot I forget to share some of my !PIMP !LUV and !PIZZA

You mean you were in the military when it was 9/11? It was a truly brutal event, and I think America really did take her security even more seriously after that event.

I joined the reserves following the attacks. Security has gone almost too extreme here now, when government anywhere sees a chance to grab more power that's what happens. The same happened here and many of the laws passed at the time are restricting freedoms until this day.

I also remember just about everything that happened on 9/11. I had just got out the USAF and was working my second day as federal worker. That day President Bush landed at the installation I was working at. I still remember the sound of escort fighters and his jet landing. I knew something was going on as they were the only aircraft flying in U.S. air space.

I have given LEO a try but I haven't received anything yet that I'm aware of. I don't know if I could tell myself to pay for the premium membership until I see something first. Now I'm not complaining I think I have only done three or four posts on their frontend. Really too small of a contribution to make a judgement yet.

That must have been weird to see the escorts and Air Force one as the only planes in the air. Not being active duty USAF might have been a good thing at that point. Deployments didn't take long to get started if I recall!

Deployments followed pretty quick but there were still plenty of them prior due the craziness in the middle east. I got out on 10 August so I missed the stop loss they had going on a few months following

Good thing to have missed, those stop losses can leave you stuck for ages...

What a tragic day in history!🙄
My condolences as well to all of the families of the victims of this tragic event !

It really was, and just a real shame that it ever happened!

I think everyone will remember where they were on9/11…….
I was just getting ready to step out the door to drive to work !😳

I will definitely buy some DUO and stake it! Great initiative

It's a great program, we're proud of it. I look forward to having you as one of our token holders!
