The Case of Mondays

in #monday5 months ago

         I am fully aware I am writing about this on a Friday evening. Given my work schedule, the conventional days of the week are different in my life than most others. That means that my Mondays are not your Mondays. But in this case, I'll write about the actual Monday.

         Monday is when I add to my portfolio. Monday is when I add a little in hopes of outpacing inflation. When you see the world in precious metals and BTC, you realize it's silly to stay in fiat. Pensions and 401k won't be there to save you in the long run. Numbers going up doesn't mean value is going up. Oh, Social Security is a scam.

         Monday is when I check out how the market is doing. I'm glad I never had the addiction of checking the prices every few minutes. No, I'm not a trader, so I'm not too concerned about the ups and downs. I'll cash out when I have to exchange them for something else. I won't stay in fiat for too long.

         Monday is also when I look over financial obligations. Fiat comes in handy when it comes to bills and taxes. Easy come, easy go. Nobody wants to do this on a Friday when the goal is to relax after a week's work. Start the week off by making it about you.

         Monday is when I do these things. It's not everyone's favorite day, but I don't let it be the worst. Each week is another chance. Each week is another week where I can see the progress of my choices.

         Remember, we are taxed more for working than investing.

Politicans claim they want to fight inflation and protect the little guy from taxes, but do they ever propose sound money or the repeal of individual income, property, or capital gains taxes? No. In fact, they're floating a "wealth tax" now. Just like the income tax in 1913, we're assured it'll only ever apply to the 1%. Sure...

Why even tax us at this point when they can "borrow" infinitely?

America did just fine before all the random taxes bs before the Feds.

Well, you can't run a police state or wage perpetual global war on just a low import duty. But don't worry. The Modern Monetary theorists have this all figured out. A cycle of printing money for cronies and taxing the productive will somehow make us all fabulously wealthy because reasons!

Lol yeah.

Here in our country the rulers are not at all paying attention to their own people and are busy living their own good life.

It’s like that in most countries.

That’s a nice addition. Gold is always a solid play.

Agreed.

I can understand the decision to do it on a Monday because that's also when I make sure all my budget stuff is up to date lol..

I like doing that, and I even love it when I see my plans come to live and work out.

Still far behind on the silver stacking but it will come..

!PIMP


You must be killin' it out here!
@thisismylife just slapped you with 10.000 PIMP, @enforcer48.
You earned 10.000 PIMP for the strong hand.
They're getting a workout and slapped 3/4 possible people today.

Slow and steady is the way.

It's sad but true that you are taxed more for working, really it's just a bigger tax on us little guys while they (the fat cats) have to pay way less of the taxes. The income tax really needs to be abolished for a fairer system of taxation.

Yeah, no more income taxes!

I'm with you bro!

Me too! They are getting more and more expensive though.

They're getting expensive because fiat is buying less and less.

Yup.

Ooh wow. Looks like we spend our Mondays doing different things because the general knowledge is that on Mondays, everyone gotta get their asses to work

Such is life.
