❇️ NOT A MINNOW YET (500 STEEM POWER)? WHAT IS YOUR EXCUSE?

This is the perfect time for every "Steem User" to at least become a minnow as of right now. It's only $65 for 500 Steem Power! 💰

I'm already hearing the excuses rollin' in... I don't have the money, I can't afford it, I rather earn it, maybe next time... Are you being serious? 😏

It's all nonsense in my eyes, people will do whatever it takes to make an excuse for anything these days. 🤦

They rather spend 100X more time and effort to "make an excuse" and avoid by just taking action and doing it.

You know how many times I hear people complain all year that they want to lose weight and get in shape but never do it?

Jesus, probably in the hundreds of millions on social media!!

Why does this happen? Is it their mindset? Are they fearful? Do they lack confidence? Who the hell knows, everyone is different and have their own problems.

Listen, I totally get it. I know how it feels to have no money or influence. I was the same way when growing up in the 90's.

My thinking and mindset was fucked up... I had that poverty mindset and always made the excuses for everything why I couldn't do shit.

Why do you think I read over 100's+ of business books in the span of my life. Just for fun? HAHA... Hell no, I wanted to become great at everything. 📚

I know $65 bucks is a lot of money for some people but I totally get it. Let me ask a question, why are you spending hours on Steem then while you can be out there gettin' that cash?

Shit, I can go out right now and get $65 probably in an hour on the streets of Las Vegas by asking people for it.

Yeah, it's that freaking easy to do. 😂

This post isn't really about becoming a minnow. It's more about about a persons mindset than anything else.

I found out decades ago that making "excuses" is no way to live life.

Guess what? We are all going to fuckin' die one day and I have no plans to live a life filled with excuses and regret.

You only live once, don't be a bitch... (saying in the nicest way possible). 😅

Many will get offended by this post. I don't really care... I think a few people will get mad just because they know it's the truth and are just mad at themselves.

Don't get butt-hurt reading this... it's just words on the internet. LOL

Read your article and read all the comments. Let me give u my excuse for not buying steem. Its a bad investment. It loses value when market goes down and doesn't gain value when market goes up. My steemmonster investment has gone 10x while steem lost 90% of its value.

Why not do both? My Splinterlands Stack is worth over $3000! :)

Because steem only loses value.

Why waste time “value” on steem then? Lol

Because making steem from my existing steem doesn't cost me anything but i am not putting any new money. Also i play a lot of steemmonster.

get your shit together @stackin, Go put it all on red and come back an orca haha

I’m thinking about putting it on the green 0 and get 35 to 1 odds 😂😂🙌🏼

The trick, actually is to go with some friends and bet on all the numbers except for one...

Or maybe that was just me doing drunk math at the last casino party I threw.

That's smart, the only problem is that I have no friends haha jk

that's the shit! :)

This is a great point. I do have 500 SP, but was recently thinking how easy it would be to buy my next 500 - not that I have that kind of cash just laying around, but I can pull that much together.

You got this, if your building everyday... you are on the right track :)

Made my way up to dolphin today! 💪💪💪😎😛 Feeling very good

Gah, I want to be there and will be VERY SOON!

(Even if the price goes back up)

Honestly I'm pretty shook by what I found out earlier. I even had a deeper sinking feeling about the economic situation here. I mean for starters if a person buys 500 STEEM power they still have a $0.00 vote so they won't see any tangible difference.

Secondly I didn't even realize the effects that the STEEM Backed Dollar situation had on the inflation situation. In the last 365 days STEEM has actually inflated over 17%. That is why I'm totally shook and if I would have known that I would have never invested to get to 10,000 SP back in November. But the situation was so confusing and hard to predict because there was no way to tell how much SBD was going to get converted to STEEM ......etc.

I thought the Inflation was 8.59% which is too high in the first place but that we were getting back 2+ % back by holding STEEM power which mitigated the risk. But then even on top of that we have the handful of larger investors / witnesses / founders who are able to reap the majority of the rewards and Steemit INC just slamming the price every month.

Now realizing the inflation rate was actually 17%, and 10% of the reward pool is being pulled away in the Worker Proposal System which is being paid in SBD which are going for $0.61 and falling and that will only get paid to very few proposals.

Honestly when stuff that has less than 5% inflation is falling like BTC and Litecoin then the premise of investing in STEEM doesn't look promising.

I have done the math and STEEM would have to get down to $0.01 and then I would have to invest $10,000 and others who were supportive of my content would have to do the same to have any sort of power in the reward pool. Then maybe a new crew could wash out some of the problems and get into witness positions and actually have a chance to turn a decent profit. Somewhat of a problem is always going to be Steemit INC though. They need to be running a skeleton crew right now and we have no clue how much they are paying some of those employees.

You just wrote a blog on here haha... I have an idea, just give me all your Steem to fight my Steem inflation HAHA

I have to use the STEEM to invest in a more legit project.

Send them your binance referral link hahaha

I understand your point but let us look past those who truly cannot afford it. There are many in countries where that is a weeks salary.

Of all the Planktons, how many could afford $65? There are tens of thousands of accounts on here that could be upgraded to Minnow instantly. We could see another 1,000 Minnows overnight if people wanted to.

The problem is that the most dedicated are those who have the larger accounts. Watching the numbers, we are seeing Dolphins and Orcas growing meaning the larger Minnows and Dolphins are buying and powering up to get to the next level.

The Planktons are not doing that as a group. It is a shame but it is not going to change no matter what the price.

I totally hear where you're coming from... it's really not a steem issue, it's a mindset problem in the world we see today.

I grew up poor, livin' in section 8 housing in my teens paying like $75 rent/month and on food stamps. I could of been that guy, doing nothing about it. People need to help themselves and start figuring things out. I always stated that the best investment in life, is to invest in oneself. 9 out of 10 just won't do it.

As for Steem, yeah we can all vote and help people become minnows but most will just power it down and cash out. Like I said it's the poverty mindset prob... not a steem prob. It just a world we live in today.

I truly don't have the answer how humans can change their behavior. They must learn to do it themselves I guess... adversity is the best cure for change.

The proverbial you can lead a horse to water.

We can present the opportunity but, unfortunately, most will not take advantage of them. Instead, they will complain how the system screwed them.

I get what you are saying about the mindset and, yes, I agree that is starting point.

You’re so right! 😎
