I've collected much SBD's from the inception of my account simply because I am speculating about its price. I sold it all for .87 cents per steem after the big correction of Bitcoin price yesterday. Now the price is already more than .88 cents and fluctuating.
Soon the steem price would go up and I would sell all what I have gained for a much larger SBD amount, about 930 more SBD's to speculate about and wait for that legendary pump that many steemians around here are waiting for.
That long-awaited pump is like a Messiah of the faithful, the nourishing rain for the parched farmland of a prayerful farmer, the dream girl for that arid stud bachelor, and for me, my ticket to self-upliftment for my sandwich of maladies.
It is the reason that I am collecting what I have earned and it is a slow process and at the same time exciting because of uncertainties regarding price jumps and falls. So I am waiting for another run and then that will help me so much that it will really change my life.
Perseverance is what I am doing now but I have not much time but maybe God will give me more for a reason or mission in this life that I don't know. So I am thankful for all this that I belong in a diverse and wonderfully helpful community that no one can find in this planet but only here at steemit. God bless this community.
