Hello again! My brain is less tired now and I've been able to read your reply carefully.

Looking at the big chunk of words four days ago when I was so tired, I simply wished to hear your voice in that moment rather than do any further reading. And somehow that led me to write a post! And then life happened... two kids, snakes in the house, smoking volcano... that kind of stuff.

But now I'm back with you 100% ;)

So, to answer your question, yes I think paying in Steem is a great idea. My worry is that the average person may not like that. It can take up to a week to get a new account confirmed. And they would have to then invest into the platform. Creates a few extra things to do but I do like the idea and will certainly give it a try when looking for the method of exchange.

I probably should have mentioned in my post that I don't actually have a bank account, so even though I put the hourly rate in dollars, the method of exchange will most likely not be in dollars.

It would have to be crypto or something else we can come up with. I have always enjoyed the idea of exchanging stuff that isn't money. I pay part of my rent here in Reiki ;)

Now you understand better, let me know if you would like any questions answered.
