Ready to Get My Steem-On!

First off, let me introduce myself. I’m @Bluerthangreen.

WIN_20170511_06_46_14_Pro.jpg

Well, I’m not really, that’s just my username. IRL (in real life) I’m a Husband, Father, Homesteader, Contractor, Seeker of Truth, and now a perspiring blogger. I love Chinese food and American Football. I’m a Leo and my favorite number is free. I am a fan of Superman and The Walking Dead. As a seeker of Truth, I am an avid reader and I like to listen to podcasts. I dabble in politics, economics, psychology, sociology, and theology. Lately, I’ve been intrigued by cryptocurrencies and the potential they have in liberating humanity from government monopolies. In particular, Steem and the phenomenon that is Steemit.

I joined Steemit last July because blogging is something I’ve been wanting to do for the past 4 years, but never made the time to blog. My friend, @papa-pepper, had just started Steeming and encouraged me to join as well. So I did. And so it sat. Life always seemed to get in the way. After watching and listening to @Papa-Pepper create content and have fun while doing so, he inspired me to get off the proverbial bench and to get into the game.

So, here I am coach, put me in! Ready or not, here I come.


I, like @Papa-Pepper, moved from Wisconsin to Arkansas not too long ago hoping to accomplish 3 main goals:

  • Gol numero uno: Live a life of considerate freedom.

  • Tor zwei: Build Legacies Utilizing Earth’s Resources.

  • Objectif trois: Slow down and enjoy life.


In future posts I will break down and explain the intricacies and implications of these goals. I will also create a mind blowing 1 part series on how @Bluerthangreen met @Papa-Pepper. You won’t want to miss that one for sure.

Content from here on out will include all the topics that I previously shared plus so much more. After all, this is an introduction, not an autobiography.

Thanks for reading my introduction. Here’s to starting new friendships and hopefully some encouraging, inspiring, educating and entertaining posts. Steem On!

Hey, @papa-pepper said that he would give 5 steem to the first person to correctly deduce the meaning of my username.

Bluerthangreen means that you are familiar with the blues, and don't have a lot of money, right?
We can elaborate but you catch the drift, no?

That is all true, but no, that is not the meaning of my username. Thanks for guessing, take another shot at it.

Oh, thought I had nailed it. What's bluer than green? Teal?

Ha, ha. Clever. But, no. Try again.

You are more for Peace and Cooperation (Blue) than for getting money at all costs (Green).

Welcome @bluerthangreen!! I'm a Wisconsinite and friend of Papa as well.
Hope you are still a Packer fan!! I'll be following you!!

Packer fan for life. Thanks, @papa-pepper has told me about you. It will be nice getting to know a fellow wisconsinite and Packer backer.

Same here my friend! You will enjoy the community. Have fun and Steem on!!

Bluer than green.... The color of your thumb after hitting it with that fool hammer.

Nope, but oh so true. Guess again.

This one was from my wife...... Bluer than green..... Chosen because the earth's surface is covered by more water than land. That has to be it.

That's pretty good, wish I would have thought of it myself. Do you mind if I borrow it for another added layer to the real meaning? But, sorry, not the correct answer. Try again.

The color of your eyes, sweet irises that are bluer than green. Last guess, you better get this one right.

No, sorry. I got it wrong again.

It is because you are a true BLUE friend, not one who is GREEN with envy.

Welcome to the world of blogging. Based on your intro, I think you're stuff is going to be great and I can't wait to read it -- especially the intriguing one-part series you mentioned. 🙂

Welcome to Steemit :)

Cheers THL

Cheers mate!

Great introduction and a joyful read! And succes on your goals! Will be following you ;)

Hi BlauerAlsGrün!

Welcome to Steemit-Land! If you are interested in chinese culture I recommend you the Channel ADV China on youtube. It's a vlog about the daily life of two expats living in China for about 10 years now.

Gruß aus Deutschland!

I will be sure to check it out. They expatriated from the USA to China? Never even considered that. I did consider Kazakistan for a while, being from Wisconsin, much of the climate and typography reminds of it.

One of them is an US expat, the other a South African with Dutch-German roots. China definetely has a sort of wild westish freedom that our western countries lack, because everything is very regulated and controlled here. These 2 guys are always riding across the country with their motorcycles, thats why it might remind me of the old USA ;D.

Welcome to Steemit @bluerthangreen! Always good to see new people here. Enjoy the ride. I'm sure you will! :-)

This will be a fun blog to follow. Welcome to Steemit @bluerthangreen! Upvoted and followed.

Right attitude with football around Chinese food and very welcome back again. It's been a long time you have been gone?

Life has been busy, but I figured there ain't nothing to it, but to do it. Thanks.

Go go go ! Never stop again 😜 Looking forward to read some of your stories.

Welcome to Steemit 🔥💞🙏

I can see that. I appreciate the welcome.

Welcome @bluerthangreen. You will love this ride, I'm sure!

Your Bluerthangreen username might been chosen because you love two footbal teams, and you prefer the blue one's!? ;)

Sorry, my heart bleeds green and gold, not blue.

Will be following to watch your progress.

welcome you will like here :D

Welcome @bluerthangreen! I can't wait to see you shine on here.

Like a newly minted penny! Thanks.

If you're bluer than green. Does that mean you are yellow?

I resemble that remark. But, no, not the correct answer.

Welcome to Steemit!

After reading your post, I kind of think that your username could have something to do with football, as you came from Wisconsin (Packer-land, people bleed green!) down to Arkansas. There are so many teams with blue as their colors though, and I might totally be on the wrong track, lol!

That bit of mystery aside, I am totally looking forward to reading your future posts!

Does the "bluer" in your name have to do with the Steemit logo being blue? And hoping to get into cryptocurrency, rather than fiat currency (green - representing the dollar)? Maybe?

Big whales liked your intro congratz

Glad to meet a pepper family friend.
Thank you for all the helpful homesteading stuff - everyone needs it these days.
