Selling my house for crypto.
Selling the house.
So firstly, I am selling the house. that part is true.
Secondly I am hoping to go full time into crypto so that part is almost true depending on how you read the title.
I bought the house four years ago when I looking to get into property and get started investing. Rent is a huge waste of money and you might as well throw it in the fire as rent all of your life.
So after saving up and finding a property. I followed all of the steps and jumped through all of the hoops that were put in front of me. Then I was lucky enough to get a house in a good area in ok condition. The price reflected the condition and i had to put a couple of years work into getting it up to a better standard.
Life has changed over the past couple of years. I have moved in with my partner nearer to my original home where it suits us both better. We have a child on the way and i no longer have use for my own home.
Markets are booming and it's the right time to sell. When I bought it originally I expected to be living there for a lot longer but it's funny how life goes.
So I have spend the past month fixing all of the little details and jumping backwards through those same hoops to get it onto the markets just two weeks ago. There has been some interest and a few bids but hopefully today it will get a booking deposit from a couple renting in the same estate. A very good deal for both of us.
The plan
I have said it multiple times in the past that it's time for change and this will be the catalyst for it.
Selling the house will allow me to quit a job that i have grown out of and freedom of choice for my next one. It won't be for the money, it will be for the interest.
I am already studying blockchain in college and hope to get a job in the industry after xmas. I'll take a nice break first after a lot of years hard work in retail.
After paying back the banks and the solicitors there won't be massive money left over but it will be enough to keep me going for a few months while i make some life changes.
It will also allow me to commit full time to hive and crypto over the next few months while i go between jobs. This will be a great chance to see if it is possible to go full time crypto in the future and set even more passive income streams and increase my holdings.
So while i won't be selling my house to buy bitcoin this time. I will use it as an opportunity to change industry and get on the path to full time crypto in the future.

Electronic-terrorism, voice to skull and neuro monitoring on Hive and Steem. You can ignore this, but your going to wish you didnt soon. This is happening whether you believe it or not. https://ecency.com/fyrstikken/@fairandbalanced/i-am-the-only-motherfucker-on-the-internet-pointing-to-a-direct-source-for-voice-to-skull-electronic-terrorism

It's an online course through the local university. Blockchain for business.
Hopefully i will be able to find a path that includes it going forward.

Full time crypto sounds like a good plan.
Thanks for that. There is a big year ahead and just trying to get everything into a better place to be ready for it.

Niall I wish you all the best! This is a scary big step, but you always have a plan b by going back to mining fiat!
Thanks for that. I appreciate it.
It's going to be a big change for the next year but looking forward to going in a different direction. Scary but good.

Best of luck! I hope it works out and you never have to work for the man again!
We'll see where it all turns out but we are in a big bubble at the moment so finding ways to create sustainable forms of income will be the biggest challenge i think.
Stablescoins, interest, passive streams of income. It will be fun but tough.

I have been tempted to sell my house in the UK - the current prices are nuts, but it's in one of those areas where the prices are increasing, and i like my house!
Passive-ish is what you want!
Splinterlands is easily my Number one!
I've moved out so mine was only sitting there and i have been offered a good price so it made sense to sell right now.
It also gives me a great chance to switch my life path which has been on the cards for a while.
I like passive and then being able to keep adding to the pile is even better. Splinterlands is great right now and hope it continues.
I hope everything works out but I hope everything goes well. It's too bad you lose out quite a bit after all the "taxes" but hopefully the increased prices offsets everything.

It's scary to start a new chapter but it's time to have a change.
I don't know where i will end up yet but the first part is getting set up to leave. After that i will see what i can do from this side and then look at other employment to go with it.

You must have a plan. Selling your house and investing in crypto is a decision that can make you a billionaire but also a homeless guy.
So choose wisely what to do.
I wish you best of luck in your journey with cryptocurrencies.

I would never risk anything that i cant afford to lose but i am happy to take on the risk of putting more into crypto. Over the past few years i have done well from being involved and hope to do even more.

Big changes man. Congrats on the bun in the oven, that's wonderful news - being a Dad is brilliant and life changing.
Your timing for selling the gaf couldn't be better as well, a total sellers market out there at the minute, with supply so poor right across the country..
And full time move into Cryptocurrency and turning your passion into your job, fantastic man 👏 All the very best with it and if you're ever in Galway, let me know and I'll meet ya for a pint 🍻
Thanks man. It's a big year ahead on all fronts. I'm not too worried but it's a little scary to leave work and not have a proper plan.
Timing is a big part of selling now with everything in life lining up and the markets on fire i should be able to move it fast at a god price. Definitely for a profit on what i payed anyway.
I'll see how the crypto goes for the next few months before making any final decisions as we all know how fast things can change but it would be great to set myself up full time on hive and crypto in general. If not i'll try to find work in the industry that suits until it can be done.
Pints are always a good idea and if im in that way i'll let you know.

No risk means no reward and sure if it doesn't work out, you can get back into your old job type again. All the best with it anyway 👍
