RE: What I Learned from Being “Poor”
Awesome post. I never read so much about your history and even realized we have lived close (I’m in the Netherlands) or where in the world you are now.
It’s a pretty humbling experience to live in a part of the world with different values and where things are valued differently :-)
It seems you learned the right lessons from it though!!! And I’m hoping for a 0.72$ STEEM soon. Maybe even double. Seems like you can do a lot with that kind of money over there.
Thanks for sharing!

I have lived in A’dam, Utrecht (also a while in Amersfoort), and in Maastricht. One summer I worked in Scheveningen on the Promenade (the bistro with the two gorillas on the roof, don’t know if it still exists).
Oh wow! You’ve seen many places :-) Next time I’m in Scheveningen I’ll look out for those two gorillas, maybe I can find them :-)
Btw both events are documented on the chain btw. The illness briefly, the first crisis became a post in my earliest months on Steem.
Yes, I’ve enjoyed life. I still — or I should say again — enjoy it. And I definitely have no intention to let this experience be my last one. But it is one I will never forget and it will stay with me, just like working in a charity with homeless people in the UK. The probably two least glamorous stages in my life are the most important ones, the ones I’m proudest of.
