Hi @brains
Currently I am just trying to build up some Steem Power, but it is going very slow, thus I am powering up all I have. I however never invested any money, so for me it is something I did not have, thus it is almost like manna from heaven for me. I haven't tried to trade yet, it is perhaps something I need to look at. I hope the price will go up again.
(Thank you for voting on some of my posts)
That was my goal too. I kept putting more real money in to get Steem Power and eventually balance it out so that I could pay all my bills by voting on Steemit. Months later, I did it. I paid my rent, expenses, gas, water, and electric with the money I made voting.
I could have done it again this month but I would have had to increase my investment from $15,000 to $150,000
I don't have $150,000 and if I did, I would not copy/past it to a website that is only 5 months old with the hopes of paying my bills for a month.
My question. If you power up all, it may take you years to get where I am, and after you get there, you may only make the same amount that you could running a lemon-aid stand, will you be happy? That's how I feel now. Like a kid who invested thousands to have a few quarters for sitting out in the sun all day.
I have always enjoyed your daily scriptures, and you got several heavy duty votes from me each time you posted while I was on line. Keep it up!
Thank you very much
