I'm closer to 60 than 50 now, and except for some direct payments in not so debased fiat in the early to mid eighties I've had to fight this for far too long...

Never went completely along, on and off I had way more freedom in relative terms than most, while running small businesses.

When someone zapped me 400 sats for posting that (fake) video of someone riding an ostrich during rush hours in Kazakhstan... Well all of a sudden I realized that this was the bloody first time that I earned real money haha!!!

What a wild reality we're living... Anyway, since then, and a couple of years before, I've been lazer-focused on earning in fully uncensorable ways only.

More or less every waking hour is tied in with this, and in such a way that its not too stressful, I simply trust 100% that it will eventually pay off, and soon I'll relocate so that I can really ramp this up.

Maybe this also will be gradually at first, then very sudden! :-)
