What is the easiest way to buy Bitcoin and Steem if you are currently not into Cryptocurrency?

[ourworld]

I was thinking of buying some Steem - But from what I gather you need Bitcoin to do it - Supposedly I can sign into one of those exchanges and then link a bank account.

Is there a simpler way? - Is there some way to use a credit card or PayPal to directly buy cryptocurrency?

If not, why not?

With all of the crypto hustlers out there looking to make money - Why doesn't someone set up an easy to use exchange

• Back it up so it is secure and then charge a reasonable rate to make direct purchases with credit or debit
  or Paypal to buy cryptocurrency.

If there is a way to do it now please let me know.

-Thanks

I found this:
"Coinbase is the largest Bitcoin broker worldwide. It allows users to buy up to $150/week of Bitcoins via a credit card or debit card. Coinbase charges a 3.75% convince fee on all credit card transactions and is open to 33 countries around the world. When buying more than $100 of Bitcoins you will receive an additional $10 Bitcoin bonus.

I know a guy on reddit that accepts PayPal and sends you BTC
You can also look at Payeer ewallet

Thanks - I checked out Payeer ewallet and they said not available in the US.

Still think there is a business model here for someone who is ambitious and is familiar in using and/or dealing in cryptocurrency

Thanks - I signed up for Coinbase - I'll test it tomorrow - Now if I want to buy Steem is it as simple as buying some bitcoin first - And then when it says 'buy steem' on my steem wallets page ....... what next?
