Good Morning!

Doing well @The-red-centaur just going through the motions this morning getting stuff done. Don't feel like I'm having any structure the past few days. Oh well Mondays are always slow aren't they?

yes, it's been a while ? @The-red-centaur Hope things not too bad for you at the moment. Fair bit has changed for me, depending on how long it has actually been

Hello @TAB how are you going buddy? Not much on today. Got part of the house vacuumed yesterday may do the living room today. That will be it. Can't think of much to babble on about

well, visit was okay while he was here @Former-Member no sign of him this morning. left stuff behind and took stuff that he had brought to give me.

Got an email this morning my passport is done and being sent to me lol that was like 7 days turnaround ha ha. not up to much here today, been tidying up. Prob shower and eat and go back to bed lol guess leave phone on and door open if he re appears ... dunno

yeah , me either re chat . @Former-Member day of rest here lol. shower soon, that might wake me up a bit

@TAB I've opened some credit union bank accounts just in case the banks do a bank run like they did with USA banks. It may be safer in a credit union. Have not bought much silver lately, its very modest just in case the dollar loses more purchasing power with inflation but I'm not like some preppers out there who are rolling in cash. Have been looking into Android phones and studying tech reports on the best affordable phones to get. I think I have stumbled on a good phone which I can do crypto on Samsung Galaxy A32. I will be opening crypto accounts soon. Privacy coins are meant to be better as they don't know the identity of the person with the transaction. Its all undisclosed so privacy guaranteed. So have checked out Epic Cash, Monero, Dash, Exodus and another one called Ferro. I like the idea of parallel economies and not to rely on the centralised banking fiat system. Thats kind of what I've been up to today. Should go for a walk but couldn't be bothered lol

personally I would not touch crypto @Former-Member I understand the arguments for it re prepping, but that can go bust anytime. Gold and or USD I would have thought ?

I've got an A13 samsung , its big and bulky but can do pretty much anything if it has the apps.

I guess everything contains risk you just gotta do what you think is right for you though. I'm not looking to strike it lucky just having alternate "money" streams I think @TAB I will check out your phone specs. How much did it cost you? I've seen a circular economy refurbished phone place called Reebelo which is cheaper than Kogan refurbished phones going by what I've seen. It was featured on A Current Affair

.wait for next model change ? @Former-Member think this was $300 is or 2 something.

I have a real collection of phones now, ones that wont die, others bought on a whim. got 2020 iphone SE from Boost refurb as new , anyway told you already was $330 with replacement warranty, screen protector, 64G
