While I was scrolling on Facebook in search of a good meme or a funny video (yes, that's the main FB use case for me 馃槀), I bumped into a post, or better-said question that could be a gold mine of funny memes and quotes in the comment section... To my surprise, most of the comments were actually serious and very well grounded, which worked oppositely, reflecting on myself and my "socializing."

I don't believe in astrology, but in all my life, I have acted exactly as they would describe a "typical" Virgo... 馃槀 Trying to do everything perfectly, always thriving into perfectionism... If something sucks, I would criticize, trying to find a better solution, or doing things in "proper way" (at least I was thinking it's proper 馃槀)...
Now, when you know all that, it's not hard to imagine that as I'm getting older, I'm turning into that "old grumpy guy" from movies or cartoons... 馃槀 Which leads into exploring the question of today's post... Why do men socialize less as they get older?

When you are young, you have all the time in the world... When you get older, you realize that the "biological" clock is ticking, and there is no time to be wasted... Because of that, many other things get OFF the list!
I remember I had a lot of patience in listening to people... Listening to their problems, issues, being there for everyone, trying to help out... Today, I do the same, but ONLY for certain people... I have no time to listen to someone complaining about the left or right, BMW or Mercedes, red or blue, that's just stupid... It's a waste of time for BOTH parties... I talked today with my mom, which went in that direction... Abruptly, I cut the topic and moved to something more valuable for both of us... I have no time to talk about corrupted, stupid politicians, or greedy bankers...
My mom knows my intentions, so she understands it, but someone else doesn't, and those people would like to continue talking about shit... Well, for them, I'm probably the guy who "socializes less" 馃槂... And I'm fine with that... Which leads to the next reason...
This needs a bit of explaining... 馃槂 It's not that men don't care about anything when they get older, it's that they KNOW exactly what they care about! 馃槂 I heard so many stories, truths and lies, authentic and fake people, and with age, it's easier and easier to read between the lines... To see through the bullshit... 馃槂

How many excuses did I hear? Oh, man... Especially in days when I was working with many clients... Or even with some "friends"... When you are younger, you try to change them, to get their respect, to make them better... But when you are older, you learned that it's impossible to do it... Some people are like that, they are likely to be negative, or it's their way of handling life... Investing our time in them is a pure waste of it... It will change nothing, and it will not benefit anybody... Instead of doing that, we should invest time in those people who appreciate it, who help us grow, and to whom we CAN help! Which leads to the next thing...
I was struggling to be honest with people in my younger days... Not because I was a liar, but because I didn't want to hurt their feelings, or to make myself enemies... Until the point when I realized that those people who are worth our time do appreciate honesty, and don't mind getting the "wakeup call"! I would say that we are back to the main point of using our time wisely... Being honest with friends makes your relationship stronger... Being dishonest is a waste of time...
I suppose I could write a lot more on this topic, but you get the main point of all this... Quality time spent with friends! That's what counts the most... Because of that, from the "outside" it looks like we socialize less as we are getting older, but in reality, we do socialize, but only with people we care about...
How about you? Did you notice you are changing your social habits as you are getting older? Pardon, getting more experienced... 馃槂
Let's see the WorkerBee Pool numbers for this week...
This week, we have mined 98 BEE tokens in total, 4 tokens more than the week before! Getting back to the "normal numbers"...
This week, we got 1 new delegator! Welcome to the pool, 
This pool doesn't charge fees, and you can earn up to 20% more by delegating to it!
What about the bonus tokens?
While I'm not active anymore in the InLeo community, I still have a lot of LEO tokens in my wallet... As I know that some of you are still using InLEO and LeoThreads, I suppose they will be much more valued in your wallets than in mine... Of course, if you are not using the platform, you can always sell them on the Hive Engine, or move them outside the HIVE ecosystem... It's up to you...
There will be distributed 25 LEO tokens to the delegators of the pool as a bonus reward today!
25 LEO tokens will be distributed as a bonus... The APR (without the bonus) was 10.900%, and when we added the bonus, it went up to 13.388%!
I have calculated the ROI approximately with medium prices for all tokens when creating this post... So, those numbers are valid if you bought WB and sold BEE tokens at the middle HiveEngine price...
Do you want to sponsor the PH-Pool with your tokens, receive a short SPONSORED segment in this post, and raise awareness about your front-end or dApp? Please let me know in the comment section, or contact me through Discord or Twitter, and we will find the best solution for both parties...
If you want to join the WorkerBee PH-Pool, the only thing that you have to do is to STAKE tokens to YOUR account and DELEGATE your staked WORKERBEE tokens to THIS account (
@ph1102)! Every week, you will get your portion of mined BEE tokens and BONUS rewards!
.:. DO NOT STAKE TOKENS TO MY ACCOUNT!!! Just DELEGATE! .:.
If you have any questions, please leave them in the comment section!
You can find more about this pool in the initial post here @ph1102/workerbee-p-h-ool-let-s-help-each-other.
Thank you for your time.
