So steemit, in general, is only for wealthy people with real world cash to burn? Money taken
From their refrigerators and gas tanks to buy steem?
I for one, am a poor person, I came here because I had been posting on FB and Weebly for years
And getting not one red ¢ for my words, then I hear of this platform where I'd be
Paid for my efforts, and I was for a while and finally DID cash out a few months ago
(after 2 yrs of watching my account value drop drop drop) and I got $434 USD.
Finally.
Now, I can look forward to NEVER seeing my account value increasing.
Instead of being rewarded with Steem, I'm getting "tokens", and each new...I don't know
What to call them, Platformlets? give me different tokens.
Creativecoin gives me CCC, Palnet gives me PAL, Dtube gives me I don't know what,
And I don't see anyway to make them all mesh into anything coherent. Any unified
Value that I can see, understand and look forward to being able to USE for anything.
I've been plugging along making less that $2 per week (on average) for a very
Long time, these changes are very likely going to make me LESS apt to continue
Posting my ORIGINAL CONTENT WORKS here.
Pity, as I see so many getting much larger rewards for things taken off the web, rephrased
By them so they can claim originality.

Thank you. You are very clear. I started to use Steemit long time ago, and after months I stopped. I am back on Steem and see very little improvement. I will stay here a bit. I do not expect to make any real money of Steem , SBD. My goal is to share information.

U entrred during a huge bear market.. sadly.. u will need lots of patience now as things are evolving

It seems you don't get it @eco-alex. You were talking about investing real world
Money to buy huge amounts of steem so you could them prosper and begin to get
Ahead in this "brave new world"
What has my entering during a huge bear market got to do with this?
I NEVER spent any real world money to buy steem, because I didn't HAVE real world
Funds I could throw away in this manner.
I don't play the lottery, I don't invest in the stock market/wall street, because
I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY FOR THOSE THINGS.
So once again, me and the majority of the people here in steemit, who are the ones
CREATING QUALITY ORIGINAL MATERIAL, are getting the scraps from the tables of the
Whales and witnesses.
There Ain't No Justice.

I had a look at your blog. Quite the poet u are! U have some upvotes from me and #EcoTrain, try tagging us in future and u will be noticed with content on our theme of “things that help make this world a better place. “ Steem on, hang in there!

Thank you. I must go now, I'm performing in a couple of hours, and
I have to travel then set up; it is a new venue so I don't know for
Sure where I'll be playing.

I just followed you @eco-alex

Oh well,
I tried. U dont know me, my situation or anything! Im afraid it is u who doesnt get it, trust me!

You're right, I don't know you I only read what you posted, that seemed
To be saying for me to succeed I need to spend money here rather
Than make it. I apologize for any misunderstanding; I never
Mean to insult nor demean anyone by what I say.
I just speak from my heart according to what
I understand at that moment.
