 If your monthly zapping purse is more than 5% of your monthly stack, your children one day will tell you how fucking dumb you were 
 I guess it's a good thing that I don'thave any 😆  
 Now you do 🫂 
 Have sats 
 Plan some babies 😉 
 Life didn't bless me with them so far. I had a relationship not too long ago and she had two kids. Some of the best time of my life but didn't last 
 I meant kids but thanks 😉 
 Yes, probably. 🤔

But only if the zaps weren't given to you for some effort, good, or service.

Someone running a business will obviously have high throughput and the mid-term goal is the opposite: Have at least 5% of the zap income left over, at the end of the month and after clearance, to stack.

That might be less than what you stack directly, through other means, but it's an *additional stack*. 
 I meant the spare sats, not payments for service or goods 
 I was zapping like a crazy person, for a while, and everyone thought I was nuts. Then I broke even last month, and am running a small remainder, now.

It isn't yet anywhere near enough to pay myself a salary, but I can at least cover running costs without having to add to to my zap purse from my wallet, and have a bit left over.

I hope my children will thank me for building a zap-generating machine. 😊 
 Nice 🫂 
 The system is in place and it's all in the numbers. If 5% of every million users zap, it's going to be a lot 
 Yes. Now is the time to position yourselves, which may cost you some money.
It's gonna be huge.

Or not and you're out the money. 🤷‍♀️ 
No risk, no reward. 
 Actually, I would call that dumb right now. 
 Good 
 We're both entrepreurs at heart, I think. Zaps today are stacks tomorrow.

Zaps are investing goodwill in a Bitcoin economy and economies disproportionally reward early entrants. They're also the most efficient form of advertising. 
 Yes but I feel like many nostriches only zap and dont stack when they do work, if thats the case its sad 
 Can you explain to me what zapping is and what sats are? 😂🔥🦁
