I suppose. My mother was warning me about my $20 investment in AntShares, that I need to check it in case it's not safe and all that stuff. I told her not to worry, that it's like mutual funds sometimes. So instead she gave me tips on how to stay on top of watching it fluctuate and grow or go down. People sometimes need a bit of relatability, and I like to compare things if it helps a person "get it". Other people will judge and look at me as though I'm out of my mind. One thing they can't deny though, is that on Steemit, given I don't work, I've made more in the past 3 months than is comparable to anything else in the past few years. I've had to rely on donations for my company last year and soon, my Steemit earnings will surpass what I made last year in less time. I plan on using this info to entice others to join the site. Especially creatives like me who struggle to get their content viewed.

Congrats on your Steemit growth, that's awesome that it's been a boon for you. I'm looking forward to hard fork 20 for the sign up issues to be addressed and then I'll be sharing this site with all my friends as well. Right now it's a little to rough around the edges for my liking and I want to make sure those I invite have a great experience with it right off the bat.
So funny that your mom was so worried about your $20 investment. Since you got it when it was still antshares I'm sure you could always pull your $20 out now and leave the rest to run. Then you could just tell her you don't have any money in it :)
haha lol Well, when I invested the $20, I got 2 Antshares from it, and fees. Now in CAD, NEO is worth over $30. It fluctuates but it's on the rise. So it's safe to say I've at least tripled my investment. I'm going to let it sit there for a while longer XD
