HPUD - Powered up 2000 Hive Last month had been a very tight month for me. I have made some financial planning and I had to move my funds from one place to another. This month I'm powering up only 2000 Hive. Compared to last month it is 2000 Hive less keeping me a little away from reaching my Hive goals. But there is a high possibility that earning Hive can be better if we invest through stablecoins. Yes, it is again a great opportunity for investors to purchase Hive very…
Taking personal loans to purchase stocks Today I was reading some articles advising people to take a risk on the stock market by purchasing stocks with money from personal loans. In order to become a successful investor, we have to consider both risk as well as returns. When we think more about the returns we get, we might miss the risk factors. Sometimes if we worry too much about the risks alone, we may not make proper investments and would keep the money idle. I have to…
Successful people also have bad habits We all want to be very successful in life. In order to be successful, it has been a good practice to take a look at other successful people and learn from them. This has been the practice for a very long time and people learn from others more than experiencing things by themselves. Learning through training alone can take a long time but learning by observing others is the most perfect route to achieve things faster. I personally think…
Loans or investment which should be first Recently I have been learning a lot about loans and investments. I have been exploring some investment opportunities and have also planned to take some loans. This is why I started exploring whether it is good to go for further investments or finish off the loan first. In India, loans work differently and the interest rates are also comparatively high.

Benefits of using a credit card in India My first credit card was over 10 years ago. When I started receiving a salary from my day job, there was a craze to get a credit card and make use of the features it had. Back then not everyone was eligible to get a credit card and the offers on credit cards were very good. The curiosity hit everyone and many people wanted to have a credit card and I was one such person too. The concept of credit cards in foreign countries and India…
Is it good time to cash out? People who are an investor in the crypto world usually have this question and sometimes it can even be confusing to decide if it is now the right time to cash out or not. They would like to hold something for a long time but how long is usually the question. I wanted to hold XRP for a longer period of time and I wanted to do something about it only after 5 years. I'm almost near that 5-year mark and I'm asking myself if it was a good decision or…
5 Basic tips to be successful I watch a lot of videos and read a lot of material on this topic. Sometimes people have lots of ideas to be successful but end up not executing them and end up being a normal person rather than a successful person. Some of the things that I learned that are important to becoming a successful person are something I see in common among most of the people who are already successful. I see a lot of similarities and we can even probably copy their…
Hidden cost in No Cost EMI EMI is one of the beneficial things that banks offer on our credit cards. During the old days when credit cards were not a thing, there was still an option available to buy things using EMI. It was mostly handled manually where we had to pay the monthly value with interest and principal directly to the seller. Now banks act as an intermediate person between the seller and the buyer and they see a small profit in this business. People who use the…

But I wanted to say that bear market is the best time for various reasons. For people who are planning to create a foundation, bear market is the right time because they don't have to fear about the market conditions and…

Binance was supporting BUSD as long as Paxos was supporting the minting of BUSD accordingly. But now as Paxos is stopping the minting activity, Binance is also getting out of Business. But Binance will continue to have other stablecoins and…

Sold Hive yesterday and today Hive is up The Hive price was doing good today. I guess this was an effect of the entire market doing well today. Yesterday the price of Hive was at 27 cents and today the price has improved and it went over 29 cents. Some people might say that this is just a small change in the price but we all know when the quantity is high this two cents difference does make a lot of difference. I have been moving some Hive on my exchange wallets for nearly a…
BCH helps me pay my domain costs BCH is one of the nicest cryptocurrencies that one can use. I don't know much about the coin or how the community is handling it but one thing that I like the most is the transaction speed and the transaction experience I get. It is also seamless and we can pay with our wallets. This is one of the nicest things that I like about BCH. Initially, I did not know much but only after joining Noise Cash and Read Cash, I was able to earn some BCH…

We were casually interacting and started discussing about doing some business. He was very much interested in the food industry and wanted to do some business related to food.

Want to quit working and start playing games Today I visited one of my friend's houses and he had a PS5 connected to a 60-inch television. I was so excited after seeing that. It has been my dream to play games on PS5 for several years. It is not that I cannot afford a PlayStation but I don't have the time right now for more entertainment. I'm focusing my energy more on doing some work than spending it on entertainment. Sometimes my mind says that I should distract myself…

It is finding it hard to go above 30 cents, the good thing is that it is at least staying strong at 29 cents. I see some orders being placed at 30…
Emergency funds or loan repayment which comes first Every individual should have a decent amount of money as emergency funds that would help them during tough times. Most of the time these funds are kept only as liquid funds or easily accessible funds. If there are many members in the family the emergency funds value will also differ. It will initially look like the funds are to be reserved only for one individual as not all the individuals in the family would need it at the…
Change of bank signatures Today was a great day. I'm taking a loan now with my wife as a co-applicant. The loan was sanctioned but they asked us to sign some forms to receive the amount in the bank account. When it comes to such things, one of the most difficult parts for me is to sign these forms. It was a massive effort for me because I almost forgot how to use a pen and write with that. In this modern digital world, everything is going digital, and with the help of…

It is very important because that is what creates demand and supply. Today someone introduced me to simpleswap.io for exchanging my crypto.

Payment gateways should start accepting cryptocurrencies Every time I use payment gateways, this has always been my wish. In the last few years payment gateway has become a great experience for the users. People have also started using online services more compared to physical transactions.

Can there be an end for crypto? The bear market is continuing to happen and people are and some people already sold their assets thinking that cryptocurrencies are not going to recover and they want to stop their loss. A few days back someone asked me if this would be the end of crypto because there is so much bad news in and around crypto. I would usually ignore all these negative thoughts and continue to stay invested. The main reason is that there will always be people…
Secondary income is very important in today's world After Covid, people have started to think a lot about secondary income and the importance of secondary income. One of the biggest challenges we had during Covid was a self-sustaining life. When there was a lockdown, people found it hard to get their basic needs and resources. Some people had money but they couldn't save their family member's life and some people had a peaceful life but couldn't save their family members…
Physical games or Computer games If we have to really compare physical games with computer games or digital games obviously there will be a huge demand only for computer games. The main reason is because today's world is like that. There is no possibility to get exposure outside the house to play in the streets or get some physical activity. In the olden days, we also used to have a lot of friends to play with. Today's parents are worried about sending their kids outside.…
