RE: Turned 60 ( in rep ) and gifted myself 1000 SP

in #steemit7 years ago

I LOVE this post!!!! It's my heart too!!!
Except I'm one of those weird ones that aren't actually here for the money. Hahahhaahaa I know I know.... Everyone is like "ok, liar!"
I LOVE the concept of being paid for sharing what's in my kind!!!! Do NOT get me wrong.the money is totally icing on the cake!!!
But I end up spreading my steem around cuz I like fun and contests and challenges and I LOVE engagement more than anything!!!!

If the value of my post is down but my comment section is booming... I'm a happy girl 😊

And congrats on your achievement!!!! I'm about to buy some steem too. Soon... Just not sure exactly when. I just had a few ideas... And maybe I'll just ping them off you and see what you think!

And if I could encourage you to try a fun channel on discord... COME SEE MEEEEE!!!! LOLOLOL

There are two that I mostly haunt... But I have a few others :) just can't spend enough quality time in all, so I try to support two as consistently as I can.

I run a new little treausre hunt called X Marks the Post where I reward READERS for reading and engaging with other steemians.. And on Thursdays @shadowspub hosts PYPT... She has me run the final clue/ race for the treasure live on her show weekly. I have a lot of fun... And I hope others do too!!! Hehehe

And then... The channel that holds my heart!!! A brand new channel called @BuddyUP. @calumam is doing something special there. I could go on and on about it... But you should check it out :)

Those would be two sweet discord.channels to try...and plus... Maybe I can see you in yet ANOTHER platform hahahhaa... Soon you and @robmenzies and I will be linked together in like 16 different apps!!!! Lolololol

Glad to have met you and looking forward to getting to know you more 😊

Thanks for your comment.

What we do here and elsewhere for that matter is time consuming. So some kind of monetary reward is crucial because something must pay the bills . I can't tell my landlord "hey no rent this month, but I had 100 comments on Steemit".

We must find a balance between money , providing value and having fun. I think we are on the right track.

Steem is cheap at the moment in my opinion. But I see the markets are bearish and could very well go lower. I have no clue, to be honest ...

You can sent me link to Discord channels , but up until now I have failed to engage with all the other channels I am in. This is something I want to change. So little time , so much to do . And I have an office to run. Anyway we'll see.

Glad to have met you. Make sure we meet in person at next SteemFest together with @robmenzies and @karinxxl and whoever else joins the party.

Steem On !!!

I agree!!!! But my husband's income pays the bills.. so I don't have to worry about this. It's the only reason WHY I can afford to have a different outlook on steemit :)

But someday.... Maybe my steemit account will hold enough opportunity that I CAN provide the income and my husband can retire! Hehehe

And I'm in the very beginning stages of helping to plan something (hopefully!!!) Very fun for the BuddyUP server!
I will send you the link and then when you're a member.... You can maybe meet Rob and me and Karin too???? Hehehe

We will see 😊

OPMs ( other people's money ) can change the perspective on many things indeed. :)

I do believe that Steem will be a valuable asset in the year(s) to come.

Steem on and kali nixta . :)

I agree!!! But the day that landlords accept comments for rent.... I will make sure to tell you FIRST! Hehhehee

I have played on Sola now... It's neat!!! I kinda like it :)
I posted three little posts... I'll let you know how each does
And NOW... I sleep 😉
