Like a lot of people here on Steemit I'm getting my weekly salary.
Depending on where I live it can cover quite a bit of monthly costs I have.
You can easily pay your food from it, no matter where you live.
But what impact will these payments trough social activity have on people?
For me as a freelancer it hasn't such a big impact as for others that are stuck in 9-5 jobs.
What if a basic income can break you free from that 9-5 job?
A lot of people dream about it, but is it so easy to be totally free?
Lottery winners are a good example of people that break free from their normal routine.
Though it seems that not all lotery winners get really happy.
And what about elderly people that are retired?
Sounds fun right? No work, all the time of your life, but can you handle the boredom?
It's good to think about what a basic income would do to your life.
Can you handle all the free time and are you creative enough to keep yourself busy?
Very good documentary about basic income, check it out:
