Congratulations on doing so well, right out of the gate here on Steemit, @daddykirbs! Steemit is pretty amazing, alright. It will be interesting to see how homesteaders treat Steemit over time.
One approach would be to treat it like somebody else's land, and harvest each crop, putting in enough effort and resources to keep the harvests coming every year. That's sort of like on YouTube, cultivating watch-time and taking the full revenue each month.
Another approach is to treat it like your own homestead, taking harvests, but also investing in increasing the productivity of the land. That's like having part of your YouTube earnings automatically invested in Google stock back when you started YouTube.
To me, the second approach is the power of Steemit. Our posts don't continue to earn like our YouTube videos. But we can build up our Steem Power for long-term residual income down the road.
Here's to success for you and all the homesteaders here on Steemit!
Beautifully stated :) Thank you.
You're welcome!
