Hello all! Another week and it’s time again to do another #myhivegoals post, a series idea started by started by @jongolson. This also doubles as my weekly progress report for #saturdaysavers, which is a fun little group that tries to motivate everyone to save and reach their goals. I’m going to look at the progress I’ve made on my Hive goals, as well as give a few tokens I’m looking at right now. If you are here for the comment SBI giveaway, well, we’ll get to that too.

Let’s start with my Hive goals.

My current goal is 35k Hive.

Last week I made 474, bringing me to 32,934.720 total Hive Power. That’s 94.1% of my goal! Well… again, as the last few weeks.. with the cheap Hive, I’ve been buying and powering up everyday, so most of that 474 Hive is from my wallet and not from my posts. Oh well. But it is an increase, so we’ll take it!

Math time. 35k - 32,934.720 gives us 2065.28. Divided out by the days till the first of next year, we get 16.1 Hive needed per day to reach 35k by that point. So close I can taste it! 40k next?

The PIMP and CINE earning were about normal. You can see I did pick up a few BRO. I may need to redo my template and add RUG to it. I picked up about 50 RUG last week, putting me at 750. I really like RUG. Last Friday it paid me out 13 DBOND in dividend. That is roughly $3. So far I am holding my DBOND staked, but I think I may start selling it to buy more RUG.

The silver chart for last week:

Back over $30!! Barely, anyway. But over is over. Let’s see if it can keep doing well this week.

Hey, look what was waiting to greet me as I clicked on the silver chart—the Doge dog!

This… isn’t the best. The eyes look pretty strange here. But oh well, it’s Doge. Much wow!

(If you just have to have that bug-eyed dog, get it here)

That stuff out of the way, let’s do our SBI drawing! If you are new here, I give away 5 shares of SBI every week to commenters on this post. If you also reblog and comment you get a second entry and double the award (if you win).
