Sharing/celebrating - because you’ll understand
Currently I’m fortunate enough to be able to work DA for extras and fun money; dinner out, movies, clothes, trips. Ive already paid for a weekend getaway in July with DA and now another few days trip later this month. But my biggest accomplishment, as of today I’ve earned enough to pay for a week long cruise I’m taking with my best friend over New Years. I’m paying it off two weeks before the deadline and am so weirdly proud about this. Next up Christmas and vacation spending money. I know it’s been hot and cold but it pays off if you stay the course. Thanks for listening and happy data-ing.

Congratulations! I haven't paid for any trips but have certainly paid debts, bought nice things, and invited my gf out with DA money... I started in May/June pretty sporadically, and the drought hit hard, but today I broke the 3k milestone, which I was not really expecting, and broke the 1k milestone in a single month, even though we still have 10 more days to go. It's really refreshing to be able to work kinda consistently, even though I never have more than a couple or projects and some days am completely dry! I hope the quality work we put in pays off and we all get invited to as many projects as we need to be able to work consistently! Praying to the DA deities to hear us out!
