Still made the top 5 in stack and spend despite the requirements of my new profession as a personal butler. Not bad.

Yes that one slip up back in November has haunted my entire career since. When you play in the big leagues amongst all stars you have to be at the top of your game.

Stick with it, kid. You've got potential.

There's a character in East of Eden that convinced me being a butler is more noble and rewarding than it seems on the face of it.
reply
I tagged my son in for awhile and told him to take care of his mom while I went out to run some errands.
I will tell him it is noble work as per k00b.

I and @siggy47 are definitely excited to hold an SN meetup but I must admit that other stackers didn't react to it as excitedly as we did.
reply
Hullo! Love India for its labyrinth of colours smells sounds, but being saddled with two children means that I can’t travel like I used to ;(
reply
Yes, understandable.
However the meetup is gonna be nect year... So may be by that time.?
Also, you're not very far from India...
reply
Ad I already mentioned that I'm ready.
reply
Ahh, super cool to see my minimalism post make it to the top 5! Thanks all :)
reply
And your minimalism post inspired me to write a musing about Bitcoin n Mental Health. Thanks mate
reply
It’s a good post. If you didn’t see, they discussed it on the last Stacker News Live.

Congratulations to all top Stackers.
