Saturday Savers Club Progress week 45 - getting very close to the 10K HP mark

Its week 45 (11/11/23) of my savings focus for 2023 with the Saturday Savers Club which I think is a great Hive community initiative run by @shanibeer writing as @sally-saver on the @eddie-earner account.

My focus for the rest of the year is:

• My annual HP target of 10K HP,
• Growing my holding of investment tokens,
• Delegating HP to a number of good community curation accounts.

This weeks pic - is actually the only pic I've taken during the working week this week. There was a nice sunrise as I was leaving the house for work one morning !

Weekly Stats

Weekly commentary

• I gained +190 HP this week, which is fantastic - thanks to a number of good post payouts again,
• My HP total is now 9686 HP. This time last year I had 2333, so have gained 7353 HP over the last year,
• I need a further 314 HP to hit my year end 10K HP target, which at 7 weeks to go requires 44 HP per week (down 18 per week !). I'm getting really close to that target now - cant wait to finally cross it !,
• I delegated another +12 HP to @ocdb to bring that total to 38 HP. And it was nice to see the HIVE drips for that delegation starting to come in this last week. They are not huge at all, but it all adds up,
• I gained +4.16 EDS, with my 2010 HP delegation to @eds-vote bringing in +1.5 EDS of that gain last week. I also had a decent amount from the mining lottery. I wont hit my year end target of 100, but I'll get close,
• I gained +1.408 DAB this week brining my total to 31. These are still going for around 4 HIVE each on Hive-engine, so thats quite a nice passive weekly income,
• I gained +2 DBOND taking my total to 706. I'm happy to see both DAB and DBOND increasing each day passively due to their staking synergy !,
• I gained +0.56 DRIP this week, which was just the passive increases for the small amount I hold - which aint too bad. I will continue to buy more DRIP in bits and pieces over the coming weeks,
• I also gained a further +3.483 PWR tokens from my HP delegation to @empo.voter, and what I have in the PWR:swap.hive pool. My PWR total continues to build nicely, and I'm really looking forward to seeing how this project develops over time,
• I also had 7 HBD:HIVE flipping trades go through for a total profit of around 11 HIVE this week - which was a nice little bonus. I've just reinvested that back into further trades. The recent HIVE price rise has brought it back into my trading range (just).

Plan for the coming week

• To continue to make sure I post daily/regularly to ensure daily HBD and HIVE author rewards,
• To be active in HIVE Blog curation to help with HIVE curation rewards,
• To continue to increase undelegated HIVE in order to improve HIVE curation rewards,
• To get back into more HBD:HIVE flipping now that the price is back in my trading range,
• This weeks delegation of 15% of my weekly HP income (29 HP) will be going to @ocdb, as part of my project to support community curation accounts via HP delegation,
• I'm keen to increase my stack of DRIP, and will continue to buy more over the coming weeks in small amounts here and there,
• I've continued to save HBD as its now possible to buy the new DAB Club Token from the Daily DAB project. I should have enough by around mid-week (30 HBD), so that will be nice !,
• I will be continuing to sell HBD payouts from posts for HIVE in order to power up more towards my annual HP target, especially while the price of HIVE is still so low.

In summary, its been an awesome week. I was pretty happy with my HP increase, and it was also nice to get some nice trades from HBD:HIVE flipping. And as ever, I'm enjoying seeing the passive gains I'm now getting. These are not huge, but they will continue to grow, and they are all working together - so thats great !

Start of a new project

One other thing this week is that I've started a new tribe token staking, delegation, curation and rebalancing experiment on an alt account I have. Its a bit of fun really at this stage, as I was intrigued by the maths around how it might all work and compound together. Anyway, if you are interested in that, you can find the first post on it here.

And as a reminder:

• Its Leo Power Up Day (LPUD) this coming wednesday (15th of Nov),
• This weeks #saturdaysavers #topauthors announcement post and poll went live on friday - so get voting !. We are looking for inciteful content that shows how you are saving, growing and investing - the winner each week gets 60% of the announcement post payout - so its worth it ! There are also HSBI rewards for all other contenders - everyone is a winner !
