SEC - S15W6 : LIVING WITH STEEM
Greetings friends and members of the community. I am here to share how living with steem has changed my life.

Part 1
In my country, a lot of people have gotten their lives messed up by risking their hard-earned income to Ponzi schemes and gambling. This is one I have hated to this very day because it took a lot from me, dealt with me psychologically and left me in mud. I couldn't focus on my studies, and I couldn't read, all because I was thinking of ways to get my money back, and to be more specific it was my school fee, damn as a freshman at the university I had less knowledge of the concept of Ponzi scheme, so this was my first predator, it stole N27,000 from me and then I thought of ways to recover my money.
Part 2
I search the internet and found punter who claims to give 99% sure predictions, I fell for them thinking that after 3 stakes I will be able to get everything back. So you know what I staked 60k my mum gave me to keep and earned 100k, the next game dropped, I staked and got 180k, I planned to hit 300k+ so that I could recover some of my money, so the next game dropped I staked and buuuuum the money got lost. I felt like hanging myself. I ran to the bush, fell on the ground, and rolled like a baby, anybody who saw me at that time would think I was mad.
Part 3
I was just 19 and I was taking crazy risks, I lost focus. This story is a long one. I knew about Steem at this time but I wasn't ready to do it, so I decided to join at this time, I opened an account started something and in five months I got 500+ Steem, I was reluctant to power down because I wanted to be a boss with a high steem power, but come to think of it, I talking about my school fees here and I decided to confide this from parents, only my friends about it.
Part 4
After 5 months of hard work, I took out half my steem power and settled my school fee, the school fee that I was supposed to pay about 26500+ I had to pay 41500 because at this time the portal for payment has closed for almost a year. This is how far Steem has helped me, now I have recovered, I was never addicted to gambling the only thing was that I was in the run to recover my money. So today I have decided to do no gambling and Ponzi scheme things because Steem has changed my life....
The Expository Learning Steem Has Taught Me
I enjoy living with Steem and I hope with new developments on the blockchain-based social media platform, we will surely break out from financial instability. I have benefited a lot from steem financially, you will see that if you read from the beginning. Not only has Steemit helped me blurt out my mischief, but it has also shown me the aspect of developing skills in writing and being creative enough.
Social Relationship Created, Built and Sustained

We are actually languishing in pain, we are well aware that this schemes are ponzi but because of lack of money we endulge in them. Most of the ponzi scheme are created by youth who are financially down to elevate themselves. Thanks for your reply on my post.

Thanks for your reply on my post, I appreciate Sir
Oh please don't call me sir we are brother 🙏 And you don't need to thanks mate your post is deserving this support .
Wow, that's quite a ride you went through with those predictions. It's tough when we fall for something that promises big returns but ends up causing us to lose money. I can only imagine how you must have felt at that moment. But hey, I'm really glad to hear that you found Steem and it helped you out of that situation. It's amazing how hard work and determination can pay off. Taking out half your Steem power to settle your school fees was a smart move. It's important to prioritize our responsibilities, right? I'm glad you're recovering now. Keep pushing forward, my friend. Steem has got your back.
Thanks for your reply, Steem got my back and I am glad i recovered the great mess. My promise never to engage in ponzi scheme remain stagnant no matter the big returns promised.
