    Thank you for your videos mate.. . Crypto education is what the world needs the most right now. I don’t think that buy and hold is a valid investment strategy anymore. Not too diluted and to a degree, follows Sophia’s trading ideas and signal tips for your portfolio growth and aggressiveness. She is a woman who has not only taught me what the cryptocurrency trading world looks like but a secret to uplift my finance. Buying crypto and waiting for the price to shoot up is not the best way to invest in the market but buying and trading is. Sophia Haney’s trade signaIs does the heavy lifting, generating competitive returns for crypto traders and investors in the form of money and peace of mind. Time in the market vs. timing the market. If you keep that mentality as an investor, you will stay calm during the storm! Within some months I was making a lot more money and have continued on that same path...

Why not sell them for a few dollars a piece and put that money towards a better sifter? With a better sifter they create more bags, more gravel and so on thus making more money which will allow them to make way more impact.

    How are 512GB and 1TB HDD not worth selling anymore? I can think of plenty of products that could benefit. Especially in surveillance systems where you want to wipe recordings often and have them be removable. I could also see value in arcades/gaming. When you don't need much storage or speed I think an old HDD with a low capacity would be great value. A 1TB SSD is $60+ if you can replace that with a $10-20 HDD you save $50. Even if you double up you save money and get the redundancy benefit.
