I think Steemit is a great avenue for you to achieve that!
Also, since Venezuela is in dark times right now that means NOW is the time to be buying up assets. Just like day follows night, these bad times won't last forever. If you get all you can now, you will reap the wealth in the future.
(Houses, land, farms, businesses, etc - is there a stock market you can get into?)
Well yeah, there is a stock market but with very few companies. And you are right about buying assets right now. Elections are coming next Sunday so let's see what happens.
