There's some controversial stuff I've heard lately about a couple (contractors) who were interviewed on national TV, where they flaunted their 100+ luxury cars (each model or edition comes in two colors - black and white, or red). Accordingly, their purpose with the interview was to inspire or motivate people, but they caused an uproar instead.
Why?
Because when asked how they went from lacking to having so much (billionaires), they were honest enough to say it was when they started taking government contracts/projects. That doesn't require extra brain power for anyone to understand, or does it? Reading between the lines, it's as if they blatantly admitted stealing public funds (people's taxes) and splurging on personal luxuries.
Crazy, huh?
We didn't watch the interview because we knew we'd be disgusted. But since many people did, the family is now a subject of mockery and sarcasm on social media. We couldn't help wondering whether the couple would be subject to an audit or a probe. We'd be very delighted if they were legally scrutinized.
Anyway, 'nuff of that before my BP shoots up, lol! Since it's the weekend, it's time for our weekly tradition: progress update on our SSC goals, for week 35, if I'm not mistaken.
25 HBD has been added in the week. That's an average of 3.57 HBD a day. I'm so chuffed that we are already inching towards September and nothing has been withdrawn from the savings, so we will continue adding to it.
Although I'm considering using half of the daily HBD rewards to acquire some SURGE, LeoStrategy's stable-ish coin that earns an interest of 16.67% PA paid weekly (every Monday) in either HBD or LSTR.
Bought some 5K+ sats when BTC hit $110k. Little did I know that the price would drop even more. It's okay, though. I may enable the auto-buy on the CEX again one of these days.
There's an addition of 170 HP during the week. While I didn't include this on my list of goals on the Saturday Savers Club chart, I am intentional about growing it. Just a little over 2k HP more to hit 30k, which means I need to stake an average of 125 HIVE per week. That's achievable with the current price of our coin.
And that's pretty much it for the week. I'm super grateful and looking forward to an exciting new month as it comes. Will the alt season come by then? We shall see.
