I woke up this morning to find that a post of mine had surpassed $100.
Then I scrolled down and found another one.
STEEMIT, Introduce Yourself @shayne -- Past Due!!
STEEMIT vs YouTube: Analysis Of My Introduce Yourself Post
Last summer...
I remember seeing posts on Steemit that were reaching hundreds of dollars per post, some even thousands of dollars. I remember thinking -- that's no joke, but probably not something I can do unless I'm willing to jump on any trendy thing that comes around (makeup tutorials) and pray I get lucky, or buy a bunch of STEEM and power up my account, which I didn't want to do.
No way, I thought, could someone just post regularly and actually make any money doing this.
Well, I'm here to tell you that -- at least for now -- I was wrong.
You CAN make money on Steemit without investing a single penny
PROOF
Here are the calculated pending payouts for my account for the last 7 days, using the SteemViz Pending Payout Calculator tool by @ausbitbank

Now if we use the currency calculator on coinmarketcap.com to figure out what that's worth, we get this:

I know, I know...
This world of cryptocurrency is volatile.
There are ups and downs, and right now, Steemit is in an upswing. It's fun to ride, but it won't always be like this. In the near future, my payouts will decrease. I realize that.
I mean... I hope this will continue for at least 2 months. That wold be a Godsend and an answered prayer. This is already an answered prayer.
But even despite that -- even despite when things swing back down -- this has proven to me the power of blockchain technology and innovative development to liberate common, everyday people from the wage slavery and fiat banking nightmare that they've been suffering under for all of recorded time.
This is truly a new era, and I'm so happy to be right here, at Ground Zero, watching as it all unfolds before my eyes with wonderment and delight.
Follow me @shayne
Well done, you deserve it !!
Thanks for the support :D
wow great job @shayne
Thank you. I'm shocked by all of this.
Excellent post.
This is such an inspiration, you know?
And thank you for sharing these tools!
Wish you all the best there, Shayne!
As they say, "the best is yet to come!" :D
Who knows $1000 per post will be a near possibility.
I appreciate that. I'm glad to inspire you... it means a lot.
$1k per post? lol, I'd have to make a point of limiting myself to only a few posts per week -- I'd feel bad making more than that doing what I do here! XD
Inspiring? Absolutely. New here. And almost all alone.
So seeing something like this is a good push.
I am writing original content / publishing what I know...
And wish to engage with the community often.
So to get your perspective is definitely inspiring.
And yeah, $1k per post is insane! :D
Man, I would feel guilty to post if that ever happens.
Everyone should get wealth in this world, you know.
I have some advice to help get you started:

Thank you so much! I looked into my own profile. I have done 90% comments and 10% posting.
I like how fast, quick, and easy is commenting.
And wish to engage every further.
You know I never knew comments also earn us rewards.
I thought it goes to the author.
VERY cool, nonetheless.
Sticking around for a long time to come. For sure. :)
And now over 100 followers in less than a week
;)
You are a self-appointed content provider working for Steemit, you deserve some income!
