I'm of the opinion that people shouldn't have to pay any more for things that aren't in their eyes value for money. It's got nothing to do with how much money they have, or how much money they make.
As for why people upvote and follow me, I would like to think that it's because i've been contributing to the platform everyday, spending every minute that I'm not travelling, creating informational content that has entertainment value as well. I also hope that people vote and follow me because I like to interact and engage with as many of those people as possible. It has been something i've stuck by even if I get 10 comments or 500. At 20 second time frames between comments, you can imagine replying to hundreds of comments takes quite a bit of time.
Hi @sweetssj, i have been following you for about a week -- as long as i've been on steemit. Initially i was intrigued by the $ your posts made. (Don't get me wrong, they are good posts, but holy cow!) Then, i started reading them, and comments/replies too, and realized that you spend a lot of time and attention replying to most, if not all of them. Wow!!!
You deserve all of your steem power! and are a gracious personality on this site; many could learn much from you.
Keep up with the fun times, exciting travelling and great posts. You have a follower here!
Cheers!
