Financial Sustainability
This week, my investments almost returned the amount of money I needed for my life.
It's quite nice to imagine being able to just continue without ever being forced to work in the classical sense.
I should try to keep my spending even lower, or at least to spend more mindfully, and to find more sources of income, then my finances could relax even further.
As a note to myself:
This week I spent 105.21€ mostly on food and coffee, and 111.26€ on Diesel. (And my fridge and tank are full now.)
Cryptocurrencies and foreign currencies increased 105.01€ in value and stock investments 50.6€.
Work, on the other hand, will at the end of the month bring in around 157€ for this week's contribution.
So neither my investments nor my work were enough to sustain me this week, but together, they actually were, with a good margin.
Generally, this is what I'm aiming for: low cost of living, multiple sources of income, always a positive balance, and if only over a year or over a quarter. At the end of the given period, I want to be further away from debt than I was before.
Because in our current system which some people like Yanis Varoufakis deem to be techno-feudalism much rather than capitalism, debt might become the strongest impediment to freedom.
