Although on a personal level I didn't join Steemit to "get rich quick." I love what you said in your post and gave you an upvote.
What excited me about Steemit is getting at least some reward for work created as a content creator. Over the years it seems creators and writers have been expected to accept that we don't deserve to be rewarded for our work, time and efforts. I truly hope Steemit is the game changer in this regards.
I totally agree with you. That's why I invited my friend @jacqueline.ohara because I know she loves to write but wasn't seeing any reward before. I'm glad you enjoyed the article :)
