Yes, some liquid STEEM ready to throw into the next venture is always handy. Or you could choose not to have an liquid to save yourself from temptation :)
5 STEEM and a delegation, that sounds a little pricey but it could be good to have some protection. There are a bunch of cartels forming though, and so I'm wondering how useful protection will be. We shall see!
I wonder how much STEEM Bernie wants each day for protection money - I could be interested in that! :D
