I appreciate that.
There was a few times in my life that I could do the same thing; pack and leave in a moment. Lived in tents, sleeping under the stars and just letting the days go by. I have fond memoires of it.
I was still very suss of the systems then. It's why I lived that way. It was simple and I could get by.
I've lived a couple lives in my day. Grew up pretty well on financially but had shit parents, and not role models who understood how my mind worked. I ended up homeless after high school for a few years. Somehow got a union job, made pretty good money for 15 years, drank it and smoked it all up then got fat and bitter. Didn't learn a fucking thing.
Kinda just got mad at myself at 35. I'm a different duck for sure but just knew I wanted better for myself so started running and just trying to be more consistent and intentional daily.
That was 2016 I found two things in 2017 that let me latch onto something daily Triathlon and Monero strangely enough.
Started with one 1700X in a bachelor pad.
10 years later I have a home, a partner, and two wonderful step-sons. A large part of it is because of the daily effort of those two things; I built something somehow just by showing up.
My story has a fuck ton more layers and trauma to that haha!
I really believe in Monero, what it's purpose is and especially how the community can still mine and hold it up. It is really something special in this day and age for something not to get corrupted or eaten up by something big and greedy.
Monero is real...and in a digital age...it really could be a great unknow. It's an honor to be able to support it how I do.
Tips go around and they come around.
Keep hashing Bud! Be consistent. You don't know what the future you holds.
I'm jealous… in a good way: I move too much for anything like that. No beautiful rigs like the ones in your mining thread, no solar, no farm: mini Whonix workstations I can pack and leave in 20 mins is all I can do rn. Got my first two small payouts yesterday after about a month (and just tipped half to you lol, thanks for your service: you are the real Monero star!). A year ago I couldn't even get that, just multiple laptops. Well, different pace, same direction.

Respect for sticking with it long enough for the hobby to become the infrastructure 💪🏻
