Many thanks Asher, and I get what you are saying. Quote from you linked post: "but if you have not got your support network in place, this is going to impact the growth of your account."
This is something I've thought about, and might get round to posting about in greater detail. Basically, I will happily engage, but am not drawn to the hard-work of networking. I don't like to feel obliged to do something, would rather liberate action from the psychological obligation to scratch another's back once they had done mine, or in hope of having mine done :D. Crypto ends not justified by all means!
Your points about account growth are valid of course. Thing is, once crypto starts shooting (do we doubt that it will?), there will be so much floating around that I ask myself what does it matter if I have a 10 foot pile and all around are mile high piles, when a few millimeters takes care of all my needs. It reduces to the fundamental blockchain (and life?) question - 'why am I here?' - the old game of 'scarcity', or something else within an ecosystem of 'abundance'? I admit I've been in an echo chamber of sorts with regard to account SP growth, and, now that I've been able to purchase a few 100 steem, feel even more secure and blinkered LOL.
Please don't think from the above casual (?) approach to a/c growth that your delegation to me is wasted. Ever since receiving it, I have felt a (nice, warm, fuzzy :) sense of 'duty' to spread it around, and have been more active on Steemit in curating than before! It is yours to take back at any time of course, gratefully received and happily returned whenever the time comes.
I'm looking forward to seeing the other side of this (vegetarian/vegan I hope) pie :D
Understood, and I don't think that my delegation is going to waste at all. I appreciate your non-backscratching casual approach :)
Well done for collecting a bit more SP of your own, keep the faith - blinkers on!
