Well, I used steemit proceeds to get a new laptop December last year. It felt really awesome. So much potential for this project. Steem on with you new toy mobbs!
That's amazing! I'm not new to Steemit but I'm rarely active but I've actually deciding to power up soon! I love Steemit and most of its community but there seriously needs to be improvements in this site before it goes mainstream...
From limiting reward pool abuse to user friendliness, there's a lot more to be done!
When Steem hit $8, I was really tempted to cash a portion out. But decided to wait a little longer. I just manged to cross the $1500 mark, starting from $100 a few months ago (I'm not that good of a writer).
"Once you've sold your soul there's no getting it back!! Hellhounds are coming for you xD xD #supernatural"
I guess that was @trumpman's hidden insult lol!!
P.S. : If you haven't watched the show supernatural, this comment is gonna make no sense so just ignore xD xD
hey mobbs! Congrats man. I am quite happy for you. This is a real testimony to the potentials of steem and steemit. Enjoy your newly gotten baby dude :)
Nice! i was battling with the idea of something touchscreeny but... I couldn't sacrifice a laptop lifestyle, and touchscreens on laptops seems like a bad idea (bendy, jiggly screen hinges and such)... Surface was the other alternative to this powerhouse.
Hopefully I will be writing until death do us part ;)
It is a great feeling to buy something that you earn online! I am trying to gain back what I had lost in the past. All the best in your steemit journey in 2018!
Congrats man, this is indeed a huge achievement. Sorry though, for the stress the messed up financial systems of this crazy world made you go through to get a hold of this amazing high end laptop. Great job!
You know, nothing in my life has been simple, historical fact. I can barely google how to boil rice without having to take all the screws out of my computer, search the deepest forums of the dark web and pay off the mysterious figure in the alleyway. Sigh
I frickin hope not! Though It's gonna take forever to get what I need from there and onto here, and I have 3TB of stuff I need to somehow get onto 500GB... so that'll be tricky. but not worth writing about!
Wow, what a roller coaster ride!! I hope China relaxes their laws in time, for your sake!
Very well done on your achievements. This is a very inspiring post!
During New Years, with my family, I got chatting to a cousin of mine about crypto... naturally! I found out that he is super interested to invest and has spent a lot of time researching blockchain technology. He also confessed that due to financial strain, he is unable to. Immediately I said to him “you can invest, without money. All you need to give is your time.”
It’s amazing to know that Steemit has opened up a chance for everyone willing to work hard, but, don’t have capital.
I hope my cousine looks into Steemit. He deserves the opportunity.
The laptop ish is another one for me at the moment. A friend has suggested its time I bought a new one, maybe it's time to really save for it. Am happy for you... I so wish am you right now. Enjoy!
Wonderful and Congratulations. Even I managed to buy a new mobile using my Steemit earnings within first month. Hope the fun ride continues in 2018. Steem On!
I read somewhere a couple of days back that a steemit or steem card is actually under construction!! It's supposed to work where ever visa cards are accepted. Didn't get too much detail from that post but i'll see if I can find that post again.
I'm glad you're capitalizing on the time you've invested here! Hopefully the chain of crypto transfers will eventually be successful.
This recent explosion in price has been bizarre. I just bought a $600 microscope that's also my first steemit purchase - and I never would have bought it otherwise.
My second steemit funded purchase, I anticipate, will be a ticket to Switzerland come February! :)
Niceeee, I've actually been to the LHC before but it wasn't open for touring or anything at the time... Wish I could justify the expenditure and time away... sigh!

Oh cool! Just think, if you held out, that would be 10 laptops by now...
Well... But then, I needed it badly and I have made multiples of of it's amount.
That's amazing! I'm not new to Steemit but I'm rarely active but I've actually deciding to power up soon! I love Steemit and most of its community but there seriously needs to be improvements in this site before it goes mainstream...

Yep, but to be fair, if you can remember, say, YouTube when it was 2 years old...
And this is a far more complex site. We early adopters will be rewarded in the same way early YouTubers were
I believe so. Just hoping they keep improving the site.
Laptop expensive.so good quality.in indonesia price $ 500 is the most expensive.succes for you@mobbs
Yeah I miss the cheap days of Vietnam but ah well, this is definitely worth it =D
Hehe.ok my friend success for you.
Whats a steem laptop?
Read the frickin' post and find out
hi please saport me. I restim u
steemit greatest platform make us all great
I don't think the laptop is branded as 'Steem laptop'. Mobbs probably bought it with the Steem rewards, hence why the laptop is called that way.
I updated the title so it's a bit more witty and less questionable =D
Good luck with your new computer.
When Steem hit $8, I was really tempted to cash a portion out. But decided to wait a little longer. I just manged to cross the $1500 mark, starting from $100 a few months ago (I'm not that good of a writer).
Hah you don't need to be GOOD... just persistent, I reckon
It's a laptop which uses steem power instead of electricity to be powered up :)
Hahaha crazy.
Congratulations on your laptop, it looks really great!
Also, I want to come up with a joke about having cex and getting money from it, but I can't do it. Sorry.
Just leave your money on the side and leave. This was a mistake
That was a mistake? All of it?
I can buy the laptop from you for 20 dollars if you are not happy with it.
I think i'd rather kill myself than part with this extension of my soul
Weeeeelllll... I can do both for 20 dollars.
This is Amazing
fabulous spam
congrats on your new toy. You totally deserve it. You have put your soul into this site, time to get something back!
I don't get it, is the insult hidden in the text somehow?
your face is an insult to humanity
"Once you've sold your soul there's no getting it back!! Hellhounds are coming for you xD xD #supernatural" I guess that was @trumpman's hidden insult lol!!
P.S. : If you haven't watched the show supernatural, this comment is gonna make no sense so just ignore xD xD
lol
lol maybe half a soul back, that way you get half your investment.
That's really cool, congrats on your hard work and well deserved rewards
Congrats @mobbs!
hey mobbs! Congrats man. I am quite happy for you. This is a real testimony to the potentials of steem and steemit. Enjoy your newly gotten baby dude :)
Thanks, I definitly am doing... every keystroke is a reminder that happiness exists =D
Now, you just made my 6GB RAM laptop feel like crap. Lol. Congratulations on your new laptop. Hard work still pays.
Hey if you ain't got 300 tracks of orchestral instrurments on the go or 300 FX on your video render, 6GB is more than enough!
Thankfully I got none of those :)
It is crap
@trumpman, thanks a lot. Now it is confirmed, my laptop is crap! :)
Lol
:)
😘😘😍😍
Well then, you have 6GB ram.....50 feet of crap....and then you have my laptop which has 2 GB ram LMAO!!!
Congratulations, friend! :)
I recently got a Surface with the idea of it being paid off via my Steem posting, and it has done exactly that!
Good luck with everything! Keep smashing it with your content!

Different niches - I have my gaming rig for gaming, Surface for writing / work related things. :)
The Surface will get a workout in the coming weeks, we're hoping to live stream a local steemit meet up from it!
It is a great feeling to buy something that you earn online! I am trying to gain back what I had lost in the past. All the best in your steemit journey in 2018!
Best of luck in your journey of return!

Lol I sincerely do know how that feels. Trust me.
Thanks @mobbs for the mention. I like your laptop, its really high end and slim.
Does it mean we wont hear anymore interesting stories about your old laptop. I will miss the stories. Anyways, its for the better.
I frickin hope not! Though It's gonna take forever to get what I need from there and onto here, and I have 3TB of stuff I need to somehow get onto 500GB... so that'll be tricky. but not worth writing about!
Good for you @mobbs. Just keep it up and we'll all fly to the moon!

Cool bring them on! It's taken a long time but I've slowly convinced several people on, and I have my dad, mum and sister on here too heh =D

Do it! won't take long on here =D
Yeah right
Now you can play some Grim Dawn and PUBG. hint hint
Orrrr you can shut up about PUBG
Wonderful and Congratulations. Even I managed to buy a new mobile using my Steemit earnings within first month. Hope the fun ride continues in 2018. Steem On!

The laptop will certainly serve you well because you merited it. Thanks for being there.
Very Inspiring post. It'll keep working hard and support everyone I can. I am really thankful for this Steemit Opportunity.

No unboxing? I'm flagging this shit.
No, but really the route to cashing out can be a little tricky. Cryptos are a money black hole.
