Introducemyself

I am a 40 year old mom ... I live in France and I have a job in the wine business industy that I am not always passionate about .
Life has hit me in the face more than once , but still I feel lucky to be what I am and for my life . I have found my self in many horrible situations like most people and you can say that I am not part on an "elite" as we say here in France .

I am very concerned about my child's future what I will leave her .... The wolrd is a wonder to me and I am not always trustfull about human kind , we are so good at destroying and hating and when it comes to making good we always find excuses and delays .
But there is hope :)
I have always worked very hard in my life , as a student and after when I statrted working right after my college years .
I started working a bookseller that we call "libraire " here , it didn't pay much but I was passionate about it and at the time money was still in Francs and you could make a living and a carreer ...
When the euro came in everything changed and life wasn't so easy all of the sudden , prices were going up high along with taxes and then cam 2008 and the crisis which left me jobless for about a year and a half , with no income whatsoever , because our gouverment decided I had enough to live on 370€ per month . All that I had put aside went in everyday life to pay the rent and buy food .

I was up every day very early to job hunt , and I found myself fighting against the sexisime of the french mentality and decided to put up my own freelance activity as a translator for the wine business in 2010 , it lasted two years , two years of all my incomes going into taxes , endless papers and justifacations , of dealing with our wonderful administration and not getting a cent for my work . I stopped the activity and found at last a regular job low paid but at least i didn't have crazy taxes anymore . making money in my country is not easy .....

I had heard about BTC as I was a very active on social media and also interested in any new technology , I am a heavy reader and a dreamer .
the french press at the time talked about in the most horrible way , making BTC look like crime money and articles were very incomplete and not interesting . But I kept an eye open . When I started talking about in my surroundings people looked at me as if I was half crazy and stupid .

I have never had enough money to buy BTC and so I started my doing Faucets in 2016 , and something started moving as BTC was getting high and with more people on it , finally we were talking about the Blockchain and how it was going to be THE revolution of money .

Faucets came to be less paid out and my little wallet was staying little , but I keep it it up even today .

My point is the following : making money today for the average personne like me in the classical patern is almost impossible , even savings from my pay is tricky as taxes always suck you at one point and banks take many fees , file fees , account fees , CB fees and all you can imagine fees !

So if I am here today it is to start some long term savings , to maybe one day have a house to leave to my daughter , so whatever happens in life she will always have a roof over her head , a sheltter .

There would be much more to say and I am keeping this short but I will come back with a more detailed post one day about how my country is ruining its middle classe and making poor people feel guilty .

France can be a great country for some aspects ( when your a tourist ) but for those who live here , you see the dark side . We have two generations that are in conflict , the old world/ the new world and our politics ( they are always the same ) that divide even more our society .

But when I look at my little girl I see that our world can turn out good , she is of the generation that is concerned about others , about nature , about doing things good , she is confident , happy and stands firmly on the ground , she is hope .

Wish you all nice Sunday !

A bientôt !
