Yes! Balance is key and as long as you ain't struggling, I would say you are successful :p
The whole shareholder is another aspect of greed if you ask me x)

We couldn't grow without shareholder investment - they put in real $$ and have a reasonable expectation of ongoing return. But yes, balance. Probably the person getting the least out of the whole equation right now is ME - but that could (a) change at my whim and (b) is balanced by gains over time.
Do you employ staff or have shareholders?? I'm always bewildered by the view that people who own shares are greedy. Is different from people who have success - and delegate - on Hive exactly how?
I actually think we need a whole RETHINK about the nature of work and the nature of getting our basic needs met. My socialistic Dutch self thinks a level of basic income should be a given. But I equally see the challenges as an entrepreneur. And currently leaning towards food forests and our sustenance raining down upon us without needing to be defined by another controlling human. 🤣
Okay Okay. Wrong wording from me.
But is growth nessercary? Or is it good enough if its sustainable and have a circlar Economy build in?
I don't might people building wealth, but as you can see in crypto, people are chasing that high APR to get more as fast as possible.
When I say Shareholders I am more referring to the big players who just want more and more money.
I have this whole idea about building sustainable business while paying the staff a properly salary and if we need shareholder the max dividend % would be 1% and never more.
Hopefully I can do it without shareholders.
Let me see - about 5 million unbankable Karen refugees, displaced indigenous people with no jobs, few language skills and no right to travel or work.... is growth necessary? For me? Yes. Because I'm not OK wiht only 7 people having enough to eat while the other 4,999,993 people look on.
But heck yeah - I AGREE with you about growth for its own sake being pointless.
You will see my Hive holdings very depleted right now - we're undergoing some licensing processes that are chewing up our revenue faster than we can make it, and so yeah, I am selling my Hive for a couple more weeks to make sure 1 family doesn't have to be laid off. It is what it is.
The first 2 licenses which we finally obtained last week will enable me to employ 5 more workers soon AND encourage some organic farmers. For me scaling up is about creating livelihoods.
I'd take a sweet sugar-daddy over shareholders 🤣 only the repayments in kind to the shareholders might be less onerous. 🤣
Understandable. I don't mind growth or investments at all, but at somepoint the money is better servered used somewhere else.
I am starting to make my own NGO with the focus on Renewable Installments, so its cheaper for the end-user ^^
Damn, sorry to hear that! It sounds painful to have to get all the licenses!
Good I like that :p
I am trying to build up crypto wealth, so I can give some away every now and then, since I don't need or use crypto at all xD
I am not quite there yet, sorry :p
