Splinterlands - My experience with Beta Packs
Today I wanted to talk about investing money on beta packs. For the past few weeks I have been hearing a lot about beta packs getting over soon. When I started my journey on steemmonsters, I was not a big fan of beta packs because I did lose some money trying to purchase some beta packs. Someone told me that purchasing beta packs can be a good way to invest money and increase the power of our portfolio. I did believe that and purchased some packs.

Looking at the reward cards that I got, I understood that it was a bad investment because it is purely based on one's luck. Unfortunately I couldn't get myself lucky at that point in time. I then decided that I shouldn't be making any more investment on beta packs but instead it will be good to purchase individual cards from the market based on the need. 

I have been doing that from then on. I thought beta packs might work for others but not for me. I was wasting my money on beta packs and was not getting lucky at all. Today I'm able to see that many people are buying beta packs in big lots and opening it to get lucky.

I'm continuing to do my daily quests. I received the above reward cards from the daily quest. I'm glad that I received a manticore card yesterday which is an epic card and few other cards. As I always say, every card is going to be definitely helpful.

Im doing the opposite. Ive been wanting to invest in packs and not so much individual cards. Its awesome because I think either way you invest we will all be coming out ahead in the long term.

Yes true but if we invest so much on beta packs, I don't think our deck would grow bigger. I guess only buying individual cards based on the need basis can make us grow our deck. I may be wrong. But I'm thinking I'm not. 🤔😀

The reason Im not as much interested in growing my deck because I dont have as much time to play as Id like. 

My point of view as investing in the packs is from a purely investment standpoint not actually playing with them.
