Hi there, Never Thought I Could Be An Artist,
First of all, congratulations on making significant sums on Steemit! It's a dream and a goal for many of us!
Nextly, do you and your honeybunch agree on this? Will you both support whichever decision you come to? That is one of the most important factors that needs to weigh into your choice.
Lastly, I read a steemit article recently about technological obsolescence. The relevance to your situation is that it is likely that there is a 2-year old piece of equipment out there that you can buy for a fraction of the cost of a new one, that will serve you just as well as a new one would.
As long as we're thinking outside the box, I think offering your services as an artist in exchange for the funds to purchase this piece of equipment might be exactly the thing that you could find support for on Steemit. Many of the more prominent users offer #steemgigs to designers and artists to help them improve the quality of their posts. Perhaps one of them will give you an advance so that you can have the best equipment available to do a job for them!
Good luck,
We're all making it up as we go along,

Hi, additional info provided above by the letter sender, please check it out ^_^
Thanks. With that new information, I whole-heartedly endorse the idea of getting a tablet. A $44 tablet that could turn around your finances is absolutely worth the risk. I'm a smart, creative problem-finder, and I'm having difficulty concocting a scenario in which it is the wrong choice. GO FOR IT. Buy the thing and use it! I hope you succeed beyond your wildest dreams.
