A couple of days ago I saw a post where someone announced his day count on steem.
I was curious and searched for the online calculator and surprise, surprise.
Today's date it's exactly one thousand days since I landed here.
My account has number 47,233.
I don't even remember but I think I bought around 50K CAD of Steem. For money.
Not all at once but at that time steem was 3 CAD.
My money which I earned with my hard work.
One of the first comments I got was the picture of Dr. House from the TV show with the following words:
,,Dr. House diagnoses you with balls of steel.''
I would really know who that person was and see that comment again.
It was crazy, I know and would I do it again?
Never.
But not just because of money, but because of all the time I spent here.
I'm addicted and I should do something about that soon.
Seriously!
Copy-paste:
From and including Friday, August 5, 2016
To, but not including Thursday, May 2, 2019
Result: 1000 days
It is 1000 days from the start date to the end date, but not including the end date.
2 years, 8 months, 27 days
32 months, 27 days
86,400,000 seconds
1,440,000 minutes
24,000 hours
1000 days
142 weeks and 6 days
Just a bunch of numbers but those were my time units.
Gone.
Wasted?
Who knows?

Steem from the distance.
Maybe this sign pushed me over the edge.
My initial plan was to buy ETH. It was 18 CAD at that time.
Stupid me.
Sometimes I'm excited,
sometimes I feel stuck.

When Lambo?

Exhausted and worn out.
Like real oldtimer.
But who cares?
It's a celebration time today.
And my balls turned stainless in these 1000 days.
I'll be the last man standing.
To another 1000, my friends.
Congratulations @oldtimer,
It is been quite a journey.......a few bumps.....loads of fun! ^__^
All the best.......wishing you and your good lady a lovely weekend!
Cheers!
I wish your account become successful 1000 times more in upcoming days.
I don't know about that last man standing part... :)
I can't quit, because I am addicted, but also... over-invested emotionally.
You are a few days ahead of me though, so I can't catch up! :)
By the way, glad you are here! Survivors matter. :)

You're of great help. I remember a terrific post with the photo of the iceberg from the back then. I am pretty much sure it was yours.
Thank you for your support.
Let's prove naysayers wrong.
Congrats @oldtimer , just consider it an expensive education. There is always hope for a brighter future.
I think several times that at least I'm attending the most expensive online English course available, hehe.
Wow that's quite the stats really, it's sometimes good to reminisce how long we've been in the blockchain, it's my one year and 7 months here though. Exciting days ahead for you.
And for you too.
Cheers!!!
to the another 10,000, friend.
I'm honored the steemian with your reputation stopped by.
Thank you very much.
I follow and read all your posts and learn about your culture.
See you on top, my friend.
Congratulations!!
congrats from down there somewhere lol.
Wow great number @oldtimer.
Now you really already are an oldtimer here on Steemit. Congratulations and keep posting!
Have a nice celebration day...
Congrats. Well done.
Congratulations! That's a milestone indeed!
It is addictive. I stopped ridiculing the missus over her Facebook addiction because I am addicted to Steemit!
Nice Post! Wow, 1,000 days! I've just checked my number and it's 602 days today. But I haven't been doing much on STEEM until recently. We'll see about that last man standing tho... Hahaha!
Congratulations @oldtimer, that's a milestone, so on and i wish you much success!
Congratulations @oldtimer, a great achievement.
Often we are not aware of so many numbers and the days just happen and pass so fast that sometimes I think that the day does not have 24 hours, but when you start to take numbers it is amazing how time has gone by, and I see that you have dedicated quite a sttemit, we just have to keep in mind that every day, minute and second that happens we must always say that it was worth it!
Greetings friend, I love your photos, it's an honor to see them every day.
You should check in total how many photos you have, you will surely be surprised.
A lambo is nice but you wouldn't have gotten the same mileage from it as you have from being here. Think of having to sit in it in traffic in between two ford's and it's doesn't seem as bad. With that said I would have loved a few thousand ethereum in 2017.
Congratulations my dear friend
