Contrary to my wildest expectations, my previous article titled "How I Make Money Every Minute" netted me USD$0.50 even though the apps I used to use were mostly based in Southeast Asia and not applicable to the international context. I guess such articles - even ones that reveal how I penny pinch - are fun to read even if you can't quite relate to those apps. It fueled my determination to write a companion piece about making crypto through apps and other similar platforms (instead of reading Survivor recaps)!
Please note that the following account is not indicative of my everyday routine because it is the year-end holidays for teachers in Singapore. Hence, I get a respite from the grind of working life and focused time to build on crypto-churning opportunities. Also, I decided to select Monday because that's seriously the most exciting day of my week. After you read my account below, you will understand why. Last but not least, my account is populated and saturated with all my referral links in all their click-baiting grandeur. I mean, I cannot be the only one who is willing to do all this. I am here to find my tribe and share my crypto-earning resources! But, if you would rather not be bombarded by them, you could leave now. No hard feelings. :P
7am - Wake up. Bring handphone to toilet. Check my email and locate the one from freebitco.in. Scroll all the way down to click on the free spin. Shucks! I receive lottery tickets again! What use do I have for these tickets? Sigh heavily. Navigate to freebitco.in website and click to get 1 satoshi. Brush my teeth. Roll the faucet on Cointiply. Receive some coins and mentally calculate the remaining coins I need to get in order to cash out USD$5 worth of BTC.
7.20am - Work determinedly on my daily article to be published on Publish0x. Nay, who am I kidding? More like frittering time away, scrolling my social media feed mindlessly. Summon the courage to put away cutlery and utensils though so that wife is subjected to a more conducive mood when she awakes.
8am - Wake my toddler son up. Mad frenzy to get him out of the house by 8.15am. I don't care what people say about not subjecting kids to too much TV. If I don't switch on his favorite YouTube channel (the Japanese character, Anpanman, if you must know) loud enough to entice him to scramble out of his bedroom, he will still be in lala land.
8.30am - Chuck boy at childcare centre. Heave a sigh of relief. March over to my breakfast place. Scroll through Publish0x articles and tip the one that is deserving of the first tip of the day and usually pens a comment. Yes, I know the tips here are nothing to shout about but I do want my humble tip to serve as a form of encouragement, albeit limited.
10am - Go home, hide myself in the bedroom, switch on my laptop and type away my award-winning article for Publish0x. Concentrate for as long as I can. Take occasional breaks to get satoshis from freebitco.in and Cointiply. Log in onto faucet gamers. Click on the faucet. Okay, 15 game tokens again. Hang in there, CryptoSensei. You really want to see if it's possible to transfer USD$2 worth of BTC to your Coinbase wallet. Just keep at it!
11.30am - Finish my masterpiece. Publish it on Publish0x and find other articles to tip. Savor the satisfaction that all passionate writers feel from the sheer exhilaration (and pain!) of creation.
11.45am - Check my email. Soak in my report card from Cake DeFi (Referral code: 298646). Rejoice in the USD$1 worth of passive income. Hope this will generate into a powerful source of income so that I can make DFI withdrawals to Kucoin (and begin the process of converting it to cash)!
1-2pm - Break for lunch. Want to improve my mind by reading about how obsessive leaders achieve the extraordinary but end up binging on Survivor articles. As always. Without fail. Why do I lie to myself every day?
2-5pm - Continue my winning streak with freebitco.in, Cointiply and faucet gamers. Finish making all the tips allocated to me today on Publish0x. Make half-hearted attempts at decluttering my room. The contrast in motivation is stunning. Because my room stays messy, like a tornado has ravaged through it. But hey, I get my daily SHIB token from a Telegram airdrop. Finally get off my butt and register an account with Torum!
5.15pm - Check email and await report card from Hodlnaut with bated breath. Oh, here it is!
5.16pm - Hop over to my GlobalHive account and PipeFlare account to get my daily dose of Zcash. Since while I'm at it, I get my daily dose of SOL too.
5.20pm - Check my Coinbase app to make sure that the SOL has arrived safely in my wallet. Earlier this month, I completed 3 lessons on Fetch.ai. But it seems like I am out of luck today. No free money from Learn and Earn lessons. But no matter, I check my Gemini app to my daily dose of Zcash has arrived from GlobalHive. (PipeFlare does a weekly payout, so I got to exercise some patience.)
5.21pm - Immediately transfer my Zcash to Gemini Earn to eke out 1 or 2 extra cents in the mid-term. Take a mental break and binge on Survivor clips on YouTube.
6.10pm - Hurriedly rush to pick my boy up from childcare. Attempt to do 1 or 2 surveys on Cointiply during my brisk walk. Doing surveys on Cointiply is the fastest route to accumulating the 5000 coins required for a cashout. Alas, I don't qualify for any survey but still get rewarded with anything from 51 to 102 coins for my efforts. Just gotta keep going, I guess.
6.30pm - Knock on the window pane and wave hi fanatically at my son. Help him wear his shoes and transform into a bodyguard to prevent an inquisitive creature hell-bent on touching and putting every single piece of trash into his mouth. Truly many face palm moments.
7pm - Finally reach home after the ordeal. Need a break from the kid. Chuck him to - let's say it together! - TV set! Continue with my efforts on freebitco.in and Cointiply. Get my Japanese practice and collect my $1 Hi Dollar at the same time. Honestly, I'm not sure if I am really able to cash out $365 Hi dollars at the end of one year, but hopefully, my Japanese will improve by leaps and bounds!
7.30pm - Swarmed with household chores. You won't want me to bore you with how I wash the milk bottle, shower the kid, set the cutlery, tidy up my boy's play area (which is hopelessly futile but I still do it anyway because keep the wife happy.), among others.
8.30 - 9.30pm - Settle down for dinner. Finally!
9.30 - 10.30pm - Barrage of household chores continues, assaulting me from all directions until I feel like I have no room to breathe. But I guess this is parenthood for you. You sell your soul and free time just for your boy's priceless cherubic moments of belly laughter. Awww.
10.30-11.30pm - It's the boy's bedtime. Lying down exhausted while energetic babbling boy rolls from side to side and slaps me on the head occasionally. It's okay. I am all Zen!
11.30pm - Wake up and stagger to the living room. Switch on the TV for some precious me time. Do I still continue on my faucet hunt? Yes, of course. I log in onto 11BITZ and FaucetPay. Claim SOL from the former to see it instantly deposited into the latter. What can I say? I really, really want more SOL.
1am - Daily hustling finally comes to an end. Go to bed, excited to rinse and repeat the process tomorrow, as gruelling as my daily routine may seem. :P
