You earned that money my friend and it's yours to power down to help out your life whenever you need it. No need to feel guilty for getting the other half of the paycheck you worked for.
Good luck to you man! I hope I'm atleast half as awesome as you are when I've lived through as many decades as you have. :)
Thank you! The reason I feel bad about powering down is because it diminishes my capacity to give back to Steemit by lessening my voting power. I worked hard to get there, I came here with nothing.The good news is that I won't have to power down too far if things keep up like they have. The response has been overwhelming!!!
