If you have been following my journey over the past few years, you'll know I have been taking hits lol

I've been trying to rebuild my business and life for almost 6 years now, and throughout the ups and downs the **constant** has been this blockchain.  I did pretty good up until last year when it came to just stacking.  But during the 'rebuild' I fell on some tougher times and unexpected expenses and I had to powerdown.

I made the commitment to never powerdown again and get back to building my stacks on the blockchain.  I kind of sort of hit another 'unexpected' event over the last few months but thankfully, I didn't have to powerdown.

I did though, cash out my $HBD

And while it wasn't tens of thousands of dollars worth of HBD, it was my savings over the past 8 months or so from creating on the chain.  Grateful that I could have access to it, but it always sucks when 'life' hits you with those...Unexpected events.

Hey, it's life right.  Ups and downs.  Those were the downs, here are the ups....

I'm going to start rebuilding my $HBD stacks starting this week.

However, I'm not going to put all of my HBD into savings, I do want some liquid....

Guess why?

Read on to find out....

## 150,000 Hive Power

Not a huge week for content creation rewards but that's o.k....I got some liquid $HIVE in my pocket last week and powered it up :)

**150,000 - 91,768.850 = 58,231.15 left to go**

The road to 150k continues.  And I'm working hard to hit 100k sooner rather than later.  I think I'll be able to fund more fiat into $HIVE over the next few months as well.  Gotta put some more skin in the game :)

## 100,000 LEO Power

*"O.K., what's going on with that 31.459 liquid $LEO Jongo?"*

I Thread'd about this last night, I came across a glitch in the matrix...I think:

It looks like Leo Bounties sent me 2x the rewards for delegation to @leo.voter

And I do not want to power it up because that's not mine.  As far as I can see, it looks like a glitch and double payment.  So just waiting to hear from the @leofinance team, if I should send it back directly to bounties, or even to @null

Or heck, give it away to someone lol

But that's why I have liquid LEO and it's not 100% powered up this week.

Which leads me too......

Remember when I said I wasn't going to go all in on the HBD savings?  That's because I want to make sure I'm buying $LEO every single day from the market.  So part of my earnings from the blockchain, I will use to buy LEO daily.

**100,000 - 57,135.10 = 42,864.90 left to go**

Shameless plug though, if you guys could stop buying LEO all the time and rising the price, that would be great.  I'm still trying to stack for cheap lol

## 100 Hive / Day Rewards

Nothing huge this week, and that's why it's important for me to put some extra fiat into the game.  Still, I can't believe how good we have it on this blockchain.  Imagine being rewarded for something you absolutely love to do!!!

Pinch me!

8.77% APR in my curation efforts last week, which is a bump from last week too!

Let's see how we did this week:

31.11 Rewards from Creating

12.28 Rewards from Curating

13 Rewards from Misc.

**Total rewards = 56.39 per day**

A slight dip from last week, but the extra power up helped me this week regardless.

I'll start tracking my $HBD stacks too, as I fired it back up with 10 this past week.  We'll shoot for 60 a week like before, so I can benefit from that juicy 20% APR :)

Hope you guys have an epic 7 days and I'll see you on the blockchain throughout the week!
