I am sure we all will or have already gone through the phase of our lives when we finally quit a job, that does not supply us with the things we once thought it would.
Some might ask well what is the point?, or this is not paying the bills, why am I still doing this? etc.
Well, I'm here to tell you that at 22 years old I had thought plenty of thoughts quitting my job with responsibilities to care for but it was strictly out of fear and no logical thinking involved what so ever, I have been working since I was 15 just trying to make something out of nothing trying to just get new things for what I thought was surviving.
Until one day last year, I realized that the thoughts I had of surviving were actually incorrect. I failed to realize the things I thought were surviving were just for instant gratification and I was cutting myself short. I needed to change my mindset, so I did.
I remember those days like it was yesterday, I went from trying to be a painter to a DJ, spending all my money on the things I thought was cool for my friends to see what I could become, until one day I just stopped trying and thought what type of life would I want my baby sister to live or my kids, that's when I found my big boom and the thing that excites me every day I wake up.
guess what it was?
Cryptocurrency and privacy, the difference of being 22 in this day in age are that there are far more opportunities to make something of one's self and the way the new age sees money which makes it better for younger generations to get a real grasp of wealth and what real money actually means or what it can be. The hardest part about being in this day in age is privacy, from social media to how our spending is tracked to having the IRS in our finances when you make $600 or more and constantly having to watch my back with google products kinda makes me want to go get a blackberry classic (kidding or am I?).
Pretty weird right?
Everything since the beginning of time no matter who you are or what you do there is always a blessing and a curse so today I am here to bring blessings and a few privacy tips for anyone who is reading this article.
These are just a few ways that I am earning passive income at 22 years old from my home and how I remain private when shopping online.
PRIVACY FIRST! PLEASE REMEMBER PRIVACY IS NOT ABOUT HIDING THINGS
#1 Revolut
Revolut has been the only good experience I personally have had when it comes to banking. They have so much to offer for free banking, Revolut offers all users access to crypto investing within the banking app, stocks investing, a vault where you can currently earn 0.05% APY with a bonus of 4.50%, don't think you are getting that with Bank of America.
You also can multiply your spare change x2 meaning you can earn double the cash back on little purchases, for example, I bought a $10 Whataburger meal and I got back $2.38 pretty good if you were to ask me.
Last but not least my favorite thing Revolut offers is 2 separate cards from your main physical card, you get your actual card, a virtual card, and a disposable virtual card and all these have separate card numbers so say no to MR. Bigbrother.
This offers you different ways to keep your data safe when doing shopping or using apple pay or however you would like to go about it just do your research on anonymity and find your own threat level or strategy.
#2 Sudomail
This application speaks for itself, so I won't be doing too much explaining on this downloadable on IOS, Sudomail gives you access to making non-google emails to stay away from your data being tracked. Sudo also offers real working phone numbers that they will provide as of currently I make people call me using my Sudo number #nomorespamcalls, it is very important to keep your information as secure as possible as the future nears day in and day out.
Now that we have those few things behind us now let us talk some money.
#1 FoldApp
Now, this is a means of just living your everyday life but with a purpose, a purpose of having chances to get rewarded to go shopping no matter if its grocery shopping or just going to the mall to buy from your favorite store, oh and don't let me forget its the little things that count to so, of course, you can earn back when you go get that cup of coffee early in the morning. The FOLDAPP leaders do a great job of giving to the people I get notifications throughout the day about someone winning $500 in Bitcoin for a $10 purchase they made yea I said it 10 bucks you got $500 dollars back sounds too good to be true someone might say but this is the power of a Bitcoin and new money to be able to do things like this, so no this is actually reality.
With their partnership with Visa, I can only see this thing growing from here especially with the adoption of cryptocurrency being in effect as you read this.
#2 COIN by XYO
Created by the XYO team a cryptocurrency protocol that has a lot to offer this is one of the main things and this has definitely helped me earn some passive income from just being at home or while I am out and about with my wife.
The objective of this game is to bring your everyday life to the blockchain and basically reward you for being human doing things like driving around, and excersing they give plenty of opportunities to make a little extra money, and whenever you have enough to redeem you have the option to choose XYO coin, Bitcoin or Etheruem.
This is also a location-based game so you will have plenty of time to compete with your friends while doing all the activities you already do in your day-to-day life.
#3 ECOS MINING (CLOUD MINING)
There are plenty of cloud mining services out there so please do research before jumping all in when you find one because there is always the potential of being scammed.
Available in the IOS app store Ecos cloud mining has been very good to me as it was one of the most interesting things I really stumbled upon, as of 2020 at least everyone should know what the cloud is. Rather it is Amazon Web Services (A.W.S) or Icloud saving your passwords to the cloud so you can remember your passwords ( I would not advise doing so) but there are a bunch of cloud services out there and they range from different things.
Now why I was so intrigued by ECOS is that it is a Cloud Mining provider where you pay for hash rate and can also invest in the platform as well which is nice for those who would like that service, Ecos was nice enough to give me 3 days worth mining at 10.000 TH/s and I ran the program on my cellphone which in two days of time I was able to make a few bucks which to me is awesome just let the cloud do its thing and you get benefits.
Go get active there is money to be made in the world.
