Hi Dan! How ya doing these day? :)
One of the questions I asked myself when quitting was that will I be okay if/when Steem price drops (it was around 6 dollars at that time), and I made the calculation that yes, I will survive, and so far so good.
Of course this isn't a job for everyone, but it is a ever raising trend to be a blogger. And for me, this definitely takes more time than the old full-time job, this is much more full time all the time than that, but I enjoy it very much :)
