542 LEO In 40 Days
More than a month ago, I published a post where I talked briefly about my goals and that I had reached my first milestone on LeoFinance, in terms of stake. I had just crossed 1000 tokens, while not being active as much as I wanted to. Things have just recently changed a bit, because I have been able to stay active for about one week right now, which obviously helps me tremendously in terms of growth.
That being said, I have published 20 posts in total during these 40 days, including the milestone post. 7 of them where gameplay from whenever I played some video games. 13 of them was published on LeoFinance. 7 out of those posts have been published now during the past 7 days. One post per day on average, which is an amazing achievement and something I am definitely not used to nowadays.
However, 6 out of the 20 posts is still pending, which makes my growth come out of 14 posts in total. 542 LEO in 40 days. That equates to 13.55 LEO per day, or ~2.5 USD per day.
It has been just less than 24 hours since I published my last post. That one was called: Put My Money Where?! - LEO, Hive, HBD Or What?, and I talk about HBD savings and that I am not sure about how to approach things anymore. I mention that my goal and approach so far, for a few weeks, have been to buy LEO for each and any HBD rewards I earn.. But that I have started to question my plan.

Another 200+ LEO was bought and staked for my last HBD rewards, which is an amazing gift. I call it a gift, because it literally comes from my highest paid out post in a long, long time and it was mostly due to the awesome start I got with the upvote from @leo.voter.
This has basically made me grow at an average pace of 13+ LEO per day, which equates to 4745 LEO in one year. One of my goals on LeoFinance is to reach 5000 LEO.
I definitely don't mind an extra 2.5 USD per day, at these prices, but what about if things hit $1 per LEO (which I truly believe is bound to happen). That would equate in an extra 13 USD per day, just from doing what I do exactly right now. That's 4745 USD per year, which is not a small amount.
After all, I am not looking at the success of others and I never compare myself with other authors. I know that there are dozens of people out there making tons more than me, but on the other side of the fence, we can see people who are struggling and people who are earning just a fraction of what I have made.
With that in mind, I am going to stick with my current approach and continue to buy LEO for my HBD rewards, regardless of the amount, as long as we have numbers similar to what we see today. That's what I feel comfortable with right now, and that is definitely what makes the most sense for me, personally.
It works and I will hold on to that for as long as I am comfortable with the results.
