Budgeting my BCH Earnings in Blogging for November

And just like that, it's the start of the month again. Why do I feel like November was just a week or two that it came so fast and it's also gone quickly? I don't even feel like we're spending 24 hours in a day or maybe I'm just not doing so much in life lately.

Anyway, because the 11th month of the year just ended again, I just want to track and share how much have I earned in writing articles here on read.cash and how I'm going to save and spend this money.

Since I'm just staying at home, having not much responsibility in life where I don't pay for rent or have a sibling to support, allocating my hard-earned money all depends on how I want it to.

Read.Cash earnings for November:

Writing daily here on read.cash is quite a tough job or part-time work because there are times where I couldn't think of any good topic to write on. However, it's a good thing that my brain cells are still hanging in there and cooperating with me that I got to publish 1 article per day for the month of November.

For the 30 articles I wrote and published last month, I got to earn a total of 0.31 Bitcoin Cash, which is equivalent to $180 or 9,000 pesos when converted to Philippine currency. Thankfully, the random rewarder and other users keep upvoting my articles that I earned this amount of money.

Read.Cash Earnings Allocation:

1. Monthly Load Allowance- $6

Buying mobile data that will last for a month is one of my main monthly expenses that I won't be able to cut it off because I need it to access the online world, especially the crypto-verse.

I am using the GOMO Sim that offers mobile data with No expiry and I decided to buy their 30 GB promo worth $6 or 299 pesos. I am assuming that I won't spend that much mobile data for this coming December anymore because it's already the end of the semester.

2. Savings for Laptop- 0.2 BCH

I have saved 0.5 BCH already (0.4 BCH from the earnings I have in SmartBCH and 0.1 BCH from my read.cash earnings last October) for the laptop I want to buy as a birthday gift for myself this December but it's not yet enough because the laptop I want to buy costs approximately $500 to $600.

With the 0.2 BCH added from my read.cash earnings, I have already accumulated 0.7 BCH in total. I am optimistic that I will get to earn a good amount of Bitcoin Cash from blogging on read.cash so I will have saved enough for the laptop. If not, I guess I will have to sell some of my tokens on SmartBCH again to complete the budget.

3. For Travel Fund- $30

Aside from the monthly load allowance, one of the things that I always save up every month (it's actually a weekly saving but sometimes, I'm using the extra BCH I have on coins.ph from the previous months) is the future travel fund that I'm building.

Since I want to escape the volatility of the crypto market, I prefer to convert them into fiat and save it in my savings account so that I will not be tempted to use it in buying back the BCH.

4. Groceries and other expenses

The remaining amount from my read.cash earnings will be used to buy our basic needs here at our house, like buying shampoo, soap, food, and other things, as my little help to my parents. They are the ones paying for the monthly electric and water bill and food so buying some of our basic necessities will be my way of helping them in the house.

I also planned to give my parents money from my read.cash earnings for this month but my mama asked for money the other day already so I won't give her anymore. But I still need to give my papa money too and I hope I have enough budget for it.

Budgeting is one of the things we should do at the end or start of the month so that there is enough budget for the expenses we will cover in the whole month.

As for me, it hurts to see that instead of holding my Bitcoin Cash earnings as my long-term investment, I am slowly spending them for these reasons. But I guess, it's all part of life. Lols!

Well, this is just a nonsense article about how I allocated every bit of the Bitcoin Cash I earned here on read.cash. I am just grateful for this platform that I get to earn money just by writing articles and I hope it will stay active and paying because a lot of people are counting on it.

Cheers to a more prosperous month this December!
