Do I return here? Is it worth it? Is it worth the time and effort? What do you think?

So, for kicks and grins, considering the price of BCH, and despite my better judgement, I was giving some thought to buying 2 BCH and just let it ride. Good idea or bad idea? And if possible, tell me why it is or isn't.

Went to use one of my free WOF spins on freebitco.in issued Saturday at 923am, which is supposed to expire after 48 hours. It has only been less than 24 but is says my spin has expired. Jerks.

I just couldn't come up with lyrics, but I really wanted to enjoy my "me time," and just play with my guitar, my Spark amp, my EZ Drummer drum program and just have fin with a little bit of music. So, I decided to do something I rarely ever do, and that is just make an instrrumental. It was a lot of fun. And thought I would share it here. Hope you enjoy. https://soundcloud.com/porwest/sin-letra-instrumental-jim-bauer

Writers Are the Reason for a Writing Site All of the sites that we have the pleasure of writing on of course have rules we all must follow. As I say all the time, it's *their* site. *They* get to make the rules that we must abide by. Like it or leave it. We do not have to *agree* with the rules of course. And we have the right to express it when we *do* disagree. That's free speech, and while not all sites operate under the protections of the U.S. Constitution, it is one of…

On any site that requires content, and thus, content creators, rules are an important thing. It's what keeps things in working order and keeps certain people from doing potentially untoward and nefarious things. But determining the difference between the "real" content creators and the fakers, or those who are out to accomplish some other goal is also important. And real content creators should always be able to remind the rule makers who really make the sites valuable—and…

Being prepared for whatever comes at us in life should be a top priority. Disasters happen and decisions have to be made all the time about money and career. We can either allow circumstance to destroy us, or have a plan in place to not let it. https://www.mylot.com/post/3517013/the-24-48-proposition

My boss suggested to me that with my eight years with the company I do not have three weeks of vacation. I have news for him. I do. Every single company I have ever worked for, the basics of how vacations worked was the same. 1 week in the first year. 2 weeks in years 2, 3 and 4. 3 weeks in years 5,6, 7, 8 and 9. And 4 weeks in year 10. It's bad enough the company offers no 401k and virtually no health benefits—I use my wife's plan from her job. While I get paid commissions…

Sometimes in life it is not so much about getting tired of working. It is that you get tired of working for someone else's interests.

Money may not be the end all to be all, nor the ultimate key in life. But having it does open one primary door that is of great interest... Freedom.

When you don't have money you can only tell your boss, "Yessir. Coming right up." When you DO have money you can tell him to shove his request up his ass.

Some people might say that playing the lottery is a fool's game played by fools. And I might agree with them considering the horrible odds of actually winning a jackpot. But come on. $2 for a chance to win $810 million? I'd be a fool not to play the MegaMillions with a jackpot like that.

The Soul of America is Country First, Before All Other Things Sometimes words are harsh. They are difficult to hear sometimes. But sometimes harsh words need to be said. And sometimes we need to hear them even if they hurt. Honesty is what is most important in this world. And unfortunately, it is something we seem to be losing. We live in a world of deep biases, false truths, and most dangerously, *denial of truths*. This thought comes to mind as I have watched an…
@Porwest
There are times when defending your country, you have to call some people out—even when it hurts feelings or pisses people off. Hurt feelings do not outweigh the importance of being American, and putting Her first above all other things. I talk about this in a read article. https://read.cash/@Porwest/the-soul-of-america-is-country-first-before-all-other-things-940cb97c

Nice to see a bit of pumping in the crypto markets. For a while there I thought it might not be possible. And yet...here we are pumping. I hope it is not short lived.
