I have to agree with the author in that the steemit platform is far from nearing how big it could potentially be. I think buying into and being a part while nurturing one's progress/account is a tremendous move on acquiring, building and preserving a part of one's wealth. Steem IMO is a wonderful part and example of a diversified basket of assets. I also like to say that I feel as though I'm holding for the long term and ignoring the lean times of steem with it's continuous ups and,as of late, downs. I don't want to look back in the future and feel like one of those who got out of BTC at $1 after buying it for a fraction of a penny to see it where it is today. Patience is a virtue as has been said to me by many in my life. I suppose this is the message I'd convey here. I would like to say also that unless one is living off steem the "forget about it" policy works well here as the people within the community are by far a better asset than the steem itself. The wallet is really a bonus in my eye's. If one participates well the wallet will build itself.........
