Happiness Journal 23/11/24

This has been my most memorable dinner in 2024 so far.

I took advantage of the recent surge in Bitcoin price to spend 23k sats on a $30 worth of GrabFood voucher (as opposed to $20 in more fiscally sane times).

This $30 was enough to make my family of four happy. My children, because they got a dinosaur toy with their Happy Meal. My wife, because she was exhausted after a long day of work. Me, because this meant that enough people liked my writing enough to zap me 23k sats. I am a paid writer, even if I’m a hobbyist - and the satisfaction just hits different from my day job.

Also, my wife made me this cup of latte. I never really lament my lackluster earning power because I have a wife who is talented in so many areas and quenches the need for me to consume much.
