OK i'm good
The bar to earning on content is going to increase massively as mainstreaming happens because as the general public come in, they are likely going to have to actually invest something which means, being more discerning with their voting.
I think that the newer people will have a better success rate then the people that have been on here awhile . the newer people ,like me, are still in the learning stage as far as content goes . Of course the people with a nich will always have a place . but the single photo type or meme will be left behind . and those that cannot adapt will find themselves falling behind . we will see the direction this goes and it will be interesting . preparing for an unknown future is a challenge but than the future has always been unknown.
Content that doesn't have any real form of care will for sure be left behind. Because people expect to be treated better these days. I also think that we are just getting started and that we may see a fine strong middle class in a year or two once people are becoming more settled and developed deeper stronger relationships.
Smart Media Tokens will help out greatly with that since it will add more incentive to engage in the comment section. Since you will have the ability to earn more Tokens. I was very sad a couple years ago seeing that YouTube removed the video response feature. They have made the whole platform more Alien and inhumane. Very happy Steemit came a long at a great time.
A middle class here would make a world of difference . Its just so hard to get there without some type of self investment . A lot of people struggle to even put $50-$100 a month into it , I can attest to that . So that means that there are a hole bunch that can't even do that . I have a long term outlook and pass out what I can . Most of the people in my circle have the same outlook . And I am surrounded by good people . I can't ask for anything better then that . This is the beginning and I am proud to be a small part of it
Smart people take Bank loans to get ahead. OPM all the way baby use others peoples money. Yes as you said there is harder without an investment but people that want to get ahead use a combination of outbuy and work hard and smart. That is a strategy sure to work in a capitalist society. We created Banks so we wouldn't have to worry about money but just about the work!
work hard and smart I agree that is the key to success . and no different here on Steemit. :)
Yes!

There are lots of opportunities here but it is going to require some lateral thinking and behavioural adaption
