Best put it back in the crypt.

What are your thoughts on Cryptocurrency?

To make it real I don’t think it’s paid up,

Money needs something to back it up,

You can say it’s worth billions,

Or perhaps even trillions,

However if you can’t exchange it for gold,

Well then your enterprise you may as well fold,

No one will take you seriously,

If you offer to buy with Cryptocurrency,

That bacon sandwich with a lea perrins dash,

You can only buy if if you have the cash,

Perhaps they sold it to you as an investment,

And now the password is pure chastisement,

Yes perhaps on paper you’re a Millionaire,

But without knowing the passkey you’ll have to despair,

What was the special character?

I never thought it would ever matter,

My computer has locked me out,

And now in reality I’m worth nout.

Smartphone finance app beside groceries, sandwich, and British pound notes
Groceries, cash, and a finance app come together in a practical household budgeting scene.
