As one of the people who came to steemit about five months ago, my main reason was for having a blogging and writing platform that I was not responsible for maintaining. I knew nothing, and still limited, about cryptocurrency.
I use steemit to make connections in the certain areas of interest, write 2-4 posts per day, comment the heck out of good content by solid members and am not expecting to get rich quick.
There are too many people who join are expecting to write a few posts, make tons of money and life will be good. Mmmm, really? Then this is NOT the website for them.
Amen goldendawne, not it is most definitely not.
100% agree with Goldy.
The ones who are here and think they can make quick buck are already back on Failbook.
And besides that, don't forget the potential behind Steemit. 1 Steem dollar is now worth 2 USD.
That means my account value has doubled.
If it rises just x10 (which it will) I will be pissing from the moon down to earth.
Lol, @failbook. And that is quite the visual. I've been following some pretty talented artists here on Steemit that could probably make that happen, like @rambai
