I don't have any issues with people investing their hard earned fiat currency in the platform. The reason I made that statement is that a lot of people don't have any money to invest. Unlike bitcoin or some of the other cryptocurrencies that are out there, you can earn currency with the creative genius of the individual. All that is required is time and we all have time and energy to create.
The trap that the colonial system sets is that without a 'job' the impression is that you cannot do anything or meet your needs. However, with a tool like this and some creativity one quickly realizes that we can meet all our needs without a 'job'. That removes a key link in our chain of slavery.
The fact that people can engage with nothing but time, internet access and a computer means it opens the world to the possibilities of removing oneself from the slave system. So I wanted to make it very clear that I did this without investing money as most opportunities demand within the system.
I hope that helps clarify the intent behind the statement. thank you for asking the question. I love it when people have the courage to do that. Bravo!
This is where it is life changing for some....meeting needs with this tool. I have no fiat to invest but am able to now. I also hope to build my account to a point of being able to make a change for others here on Steem. You got this! 10 days to dolphin! Incredibly inspiring, and thank you for the support you have shown me as well. I agree with your words about @lyndsaybowes, I started this journey because of her <3 She is an excellent mentor!
