Thanks for that! I appreciate your kind words :) What was the best part for you?

I agree with your overall sentiment. That most people on this platform didn't really produce content for money primarily, but on steemit - with the capabilities and community it makes producing content on here valuable. Both for long term gains, and also simply due to the community itself and what has been built here.

Very true. Nicely said!

I like the thought of before there were any payouts. When people were just doing it for the content. What do you know? Those are the people earning the most right now :)

Yes this is very true. But what I love about steemit on another level, is it gives more power to the content providers themselves. In the Google ecosystem which most of us blogged or created videos within or whatever before, our futures and destiny's with what happened with our content wasn't in our hands - and google is king there. Here it's much more, open community and managed and maintained by community.

It's awesome isn't it? :) I love the flexibility of this platform. It's fantastic!
