Now I've seen people on this platform who earn a real good living from it, in addition to their real good living that they seem to earn outside this.

and still they are asking for more, putting down a list of crypto addresses like people are just itching to be parted from their coins

This is not my case amigos

I gave up external paid work five years ago, to become a full time pauper

thinking I would do good work.

I done good work massa

I somehow picked up thirty-five rescues along the way

It's been an adventure

Nine of the canines and three of the felines

still live here with me

if you would like to help me survive send me

all the steem you think I should have to @spaingaroo

ask about buying my artwork for steem

help me to help them

whether they deserve it on any particular day

whether I ever do.

but man, they don't come cheap.
I have sterilised 15 so far, 15 out of my pocket
there's my mountain bike right there.
No wonder I never had one of them

lol
We am really doing it tough over here
but we love it
