Because I'm dumber than bag of rocks who's just been kicked out of remedial class - in a school specially made for slow learners....

.....here's my question!

..if steem price goes up 10x from what it is now (say 0.38) to $3.80/4...does this mean my rewards go up correspondingly? (50 cents to $5?)

I don't think it does, but you know a lot more than me..

The only reason I ask is that my original idea of joining steemit was to try and be 'making' $10-15 a day from my writing.
With my growing numbers - and based on the calculation above (and a very rough look at my $ rewards on the posts) - it would mean that I've hit my plan in those terms.
(obviously with the slight hiccup of steemprice at the moment).

....just a ball park number will suffice - don't have to think about it too much - and if you can type through the tears of laughter, at having to respond to such a dumb question..

Humor me , it's Sunday !

cheers.
