If you come here simply to make quick cash you're wasting your time. It's about engagement and building relationships. If you invest real money into Steem you can use it to buy votes which is what the Meme spammers do.
People like Bernie have been here from the beginning.
You really need to change your attitude and understanding of the platform and build slowly.
First thing is to comment and engage. Then people will get to know you and upvote your work IF they like it.
Hope this helps and good luck, an #introduceyourself post would be a good start :-)
