Excellently written man,
I'm basically starting out the same as you did, zero start-up capital. I've been lazy at the start but the recent months i have been able to grow my channel just shy past 100 supporters, and half way to my goal of 500hp.
Thanks again and have a good one!
PS - if you like card tricks, please come on over to my channel. I'm one of the very very few active magicians on hive...in fact i might be the only one here actively posting daily. I guess you could say i've found my niche eh?
