I feel you man. Same way most of us would feel if we looked at it from a monetary point of view.
And I do, I'm african, I need every buck I can get. >Insert nervous laughter<
But I just have to look at the larger picture. Joined in January and I'm sure that in no time the site will pick up. There's so much in the works now. Everyone from @utopian-io to the SMT guys are looking to take steemit to the next level soon. So keep doing your thing bro. Your just rewards are on their way and I'm sure in the end you will have a heck of a story to tell.
For what it's worth I appreciate you.
Just followed!
