Thanks for the comment @gratefulforitall.
I used blocktrades when I bought my STEEM...others might have another idea. But there arent too many places to buy it.
You are right to do the 50/50 while SBD is above a dollar.
Commenting is my path to larger success. Communities will present a different approach possibly but as of now, commenting is the best way to contribute to the platform.
Over time, you will see some growth from that.
