“Oh thank heaven for 7-Eleven.” (If this note is still up, then the offer is still in effect with your local participating 7-Eleven stores.)
Now the article …
I did a compound, rather than a claim, first time in a few weeks. I think the gas price was fair. Yesterday though, the 0.0025 BNB would have been too high for my BNB wallet, I was down to my last 0.0013 BNB. But I was able to pull about $2 in Fire transferred to USDC from my Fire trading tool, through xPollinate, into Pancake Swap, then into BNB. It was enough to bring my BNB up to 0.0126, which was then enough to do a full “compile” today without having to worry about having enough coin. To me, that seems okay, that BNB would pay for 5 compiles, and maybe a claim or two here or there on the Glass if I want to move a few bucks in gas to one of my matic accounts. And yes, I do agree with those who say Matic is buggy, it is. But the value is outstanding. It is a really typical product from India in my opinion. The Matic engineers found a way to make the process really, really cheap. And like an Indian-made car, when you get really cheap, you get a sometimes buggy automobile! And sometimes you are stuck in your Uncle Chaim Gadgil’s place for a few hours while your cousin Eddy finds a belt that is close enough to the one that broke to at least get you on the road until you can get it to a shop or do the work yourself. That’s Matic. It works, and it does the job in a way that is ocassionally unreliable, but it does the job most of the time in a pretty dang good reliable way. My point is that BSC is what it is … it’s a premium-quality chain that has premium quality coin. Glass is one of those coins. So I’m coming into this on a pauper’s investment, just an average Joe Shmoogieball, as a birthday gift for my daughter. I figured, someday, when she needs it, I’ll hand over a fully mature Glass account to her and it will be a godsend to get her through the rough times that we all get, and that make up some of the best parts of life. And for the son, the Fire, and for the other daughter, the seeds of her own business. Life is a short walk to the grave for every one of us, the pleasure of passing our lives to the people we love, that can be like a Free Small-Sized Slurpee for anyone 21 years old or younger at participating global 7-11 stores. courtesy of neighborday.us and an anonymous OurGlass donor. My point here is that Glass and Fire have given me a way to plan for my children’s future in a very affordable way, thanks to the “Fire & Ice Community.” Yes, it is a good bit of work sometimes. But when you put the time in, when you take notes, when you plot your strategy to your specific goals and abilities, then you learn about “The Game” as Treyvon always reminds us all. It’s a game because the rules are different for every one of us. Some of us manage other’s wallets, some of us allow our wallets to be managed by others. But for most of us it seems, we manage our own wallets, we learn the game, we grow our knowledge, and we invest in something long-term in the friends we make here, the fun we have, the things we learn, and sometimes even the money we make. Via con Dios, Glassterians.
The point of this repost, is this …
If you are 21 years old or less, please go to your friendly INDEPENDENTLY FRANCHISED neighborhood participating 7-Eleven store, on any Thursday, and get an absolutely-free small sized Slurpee of your choice. (I am a fan of my Pina-Colada and Cola mix, there is something about the taste of coconut and ice that reminds me of my duty-station in Martinique when I was guarding this real smart ass who they pulled off the ship for the United Crushing incident.) And remember, your neighborhood 7-Eleven is often owned and franchised by someone who probably lives in your neighborhood and works at the store, it might even be that person behind the cash register! So unlike those other National Chain convenience stores, if you and enough of your friends ask your friendly 7-Eleven worker for one of your favorite items, they can sometimes add it to the store’s standard lineup!
Imagine if we could customize our lineups in the fantasy draft, eh, sport fans?
