I’m a firm believer that the best way to lead is by example. The best way to sell your idea is to have so much fun doing it, that others start to question and say, hmmm…."Whatcha’ doin?"
"Hunh?...Oh…Didn’t I tell you?…"
When it comes to where the money comes from, politely and with all due respect, ask: “What do you care? It's all legal; and, best thing, they’re not asking you for any.
Besides, if you get so rich that you want to invest, then we’ll talk further details.
However, by then you will have become so hooked on Steemit, you will learn this answer for yourself.” (LOL!)
Of course, a Steemit t-shirt with the Steemit url and your @username is great advertising, too!
Great post @lexiconical!
Peace.
"What do you care?"
It's important to understand where the money comes from when determining whether or not to invest. It's a critical question when answering "how risky is this?"
I think if I hand-waved that question off, I'd have a weak argument.
