I hear you... I have digital 'friends' all over as well from Uganda to Germany to New York... and again, the information shared is sometimes almost priceless. My german buddy told us that Metaverse is the future and he was going all in ... and that was a long time ago. He bought parcels of land in Decentraland ... he can retire if he wishes due to his 'rental' income from his virtual land. The cheapest plot of land is now over $10k {shakes head in amazement}
