RE: Steem account holders have transferred over $300,000 to one Venezuelan exchange since it opened at the beginning of 2018
@acidyo Hi, it's nice to meet you! I am Victoria, Venezuelan and I live in Venezuela, it hurts me to refer to us as "some lazy or of little interest in the Steemit chain", in Venezuela the economic crisis has marked a before and after, I need to say without entering specific points or reasoning, that we Venezuelans, our children and the children of our children were accustomed to living well and comfortably without making much effort that was no more than a comfortable office job with a schedule from 8 am to 5 pm and with that I reiterate we lived well! Most of us Venezuelans are not lazy, we are used to having more with little effort because the nation's economic system allowed it, now things have changed and we are suffering a lot, because our efforts in a daily life work are a office or any other job is worthless, it does not reward anything the effort we put in and Steemit happens exactly the same thing I have here 3 months and I tried hard to publish, comment, vote, meet people, interact in the Discord in some servers and in my last publication I only won $ 1.07 and for me it was a success my first pain in Steemit after so much effort, without taking into account that I have to deal daily with the problems of internet connection, electric light among others things that prevent me from enjoying my stay in Steemit, so these things make me not an active user as I would like. Venezuelans face us every day to many things that make us the hard way and fighting in Steemit sometimes seems not worth the effort. I take this opportunity to thank all the friends and acquaintances who have given me their support during these short 3 months here at Steemit. I am Venezuelan and I live in Venezuela. Thank you.
I wasn't trying to generalize everyone nor direct it at only Venezuelans so don't be hurt by my words cause they were not meant to do that.
If you have bad internet connection, then work on a post that you can publish once it's back. If you have no electricity then write it on a piece of paper and take a photo of it and post it after. You say you make nothing at your jobs anymore but at the same time that you "only" earned $1 on your latest post, that seems a bit contradicting to me.
Anyway, don't want to get into this again and I understand if the citizens are used to having had it well before and suddenly everything changes and they have a hard time to adapt. There are many people all over the world though, many suffering and in similar situations, not everyone blames it on their country or economy all the time when asking for assistance and expecting help for it. They work for it instead and see where they can make themselves useful.
