Earning 1% Per Week

Today I received my 50k coin from LST, which means I've made $50,000 using the framework since January. The goal is to make 1% per week using only 2 hours of effort. 1% doesn't sound like much, but when you compound it weekly, it works out to be 68% return in a year, which is life-changing.

Explosion of Growth – 4/4/2026

I was very happy to see some of the melons are starting to sprout now We have received over 2 inches of rain in the past 24 hours The peppers and tomatoes are growing bigger. The 4 tomatoes I planted really early in February grew out since the tops of the plants froze. They would probably be over 4 foot tall by now if that wouldn't have happened....
