RE: When do I grow some fins? When am I no longer a minnow?

in #steem8 years ago

I think you've had success. You made 100$ in one month having fun in front of your computer, time that you otherwise maybe would have wasted on facebook, youtube or other stuff am I right? :) My goal is to have an account worth 100$ the first month.

Sort:  

It's not always about the money is it?!? Haha
maybe it is. Even when I am at $1000 i don't think i'll withdraw. I want at least $1000 SP but at this rate could take 10 months

I think we have to look at it in context. We are pretty early in the game. I know the really early adopters/whales have made shit ton of money, but that's been in a REALLY short time. I mean..a fair amount of people have made hundreds of thousands of dollars, real money it seems to me, in a year! So for guys like us - the best of us, adopting about a year later we could be looking at maybe tens of thousands in a year - if we're creating good content and getting popular. More realistic we might make a couple thousand dollars this first year, right? But still..by blogging? In 2017? Even making 100 bucks a month by sidehustling on steemit is amazing to me. And then you have the potential rise in the steem-currency if im not mistaken? And sure, it's about the money..and that's probably why this is going to be very popular and why I wanna invest time in it. But it's also about interacting with and follow cool people. I don't fully understand how value/money is created by people blogging yet..but it seems legit so far, and the economy of the world is at least twice as fucked up and non-comprehensible so..lets go! :)
