Everybody runs for gold on Steemit, just don't get rushed. Take the time to read the quickstart guides, make friends, comment, vote what you find interesting to you and your business.
The +27.570 STEEMis exactly what I have since I joined, I'm still waiting to cash in my upvoted comments so I can invest further. Until then, I welcome newly registered users, guide them if I can and do what I generally feel right to do.
Good luck.
Thank you very much, this explained some things.
