Yeah, definitely. I mean, people have made $1000+ articles on Steemit. And some people have earned several hundreds of dollars on their introduction posts... So even though I personally think these advertising campaigns are false or basically lies. - Most of them are still true, but only to some extent.
And I want them to tell nothing but the truth, because if we give people false information or are filling people with hope based on "not so accurate" information.. Reality will kick in and smash their dreams to pieces.
At the end of the day for most people it's a fun place to chat with people about stuff whilst earning a few pennies.
