Isaria and I were very fortunate to receive a considerable share of the original LEO airdrop. We both delegated to a curation account @plook and used it to curate posts. I wasn't fully into investments at the time, but my interest was there, enough that when I wasn't able to be around HIVE as much, I was able to get started learning what I needed.
LEO and HIVE has been very good to us, good enough that with a year and a half under our belts in the area we live in, we've decided to buy a house.
With that decision made, I had to come up with enough with a downpayment and that's why we decided to powerdown our LEO accounts. It's going to provide us with the means to change our lives.
I felt guilty about the LEO portion.
So since we are on our final week of powerdown, I made some decisions that will ease that a bit.
I am fully powering down my HIVE stake (15k-ish) and will convert that into LEO. I'm also powering any rewards back up so that my curation can be impactful again.
After sitting at a combined LP of 75k.. I now offer a miniscule 12 LP, it's like starting all over again. The difference is this time, I have a ton more stability behind me that will allow me to continue on with fewer life distraction breaks.
In the meantime, my powerdown of LEO (minus a bit of a private sale I made) is going to WLEO to offer some liquidity until it's time to sell that off.
Communities and tribes such as @leofinance, @palnet, @stem, etc. can make a big difference in lives and I couldn't be happier that I get to be a part of it.

Buying a house with Leo?
Holy cow, that is brilliant - where I live in New Zealand a house would cost around 2-4 million Leo!
Well, it's not paying for the whole thing, it's paying for the 20% you need for a downpayment.
Coolest thing I've ever heard. Congrats. This is proof positive that these crazy ideas have real world value.
