Welcome to Steemit!
It is so great to have you here with us. I wouldn't look at Steemit so much as social media, it is a completely different world around here. The community on Steemit is so different than anywhere else.
I have come to learn that older adults in general do not know much more than the young adults, aside from the life lessons in which they learn the hard way.
This is true. You have a pretty good head on your shoulders and you have knowledge that many don't. You are off to an amazing start my friend! As I can tell you know already, success does not come easy. Steemit success is the same way. It can be hard to spend hours on a post and make 0.01. We have all been there. The good news is that so many people here work hard to help new users succeed. With a little dedication, you will be glad you stayed around through the tough first days.
If you ever have any questions, feel free to ask us at anytime. We have several members that strive to help out the community by spreading positivity, motivation and knowledge. If you have Discord, you can connect with us there for a more personal learning experience.
