I have no trouble with only being paid once on articles as I've never been able to earn anything before. Actually, I haven't yet cashed out anything. Instead, I'm converting it all into steem and SP and my plan is to do so for a while.
I honestly thought SBD was an internal currency when I signed up, so I had no great expectations.
Some wonderful people submitted a couple of my posts to Curie, so those have earned quite a bit, but apart from that I have earned less than a dollar/post and I'm absolutely fine with that.
It takes time to find your audience and your voice and I never expected to earn big amounts when I finally realised it was 'real' money. It would be nice to one day see a steady little income from Steemit, but almost all overnight successes have been working hard to get to that point for years.

That's a very healthy attitude @frugallady. I have put most of my rewards back into Steem Power, too... but did pull out some bits and pieces along the way, and it was very gratifying to be able to buy (for example) a pair of tires for our car, and pay a particularly high power bills this spring.
On the whole, though, my intent is to "let it ride" in the long run and do my part towards helping the community thrive in the long term.
I can imagine how great it must feel. I would love to get to that point one day.
