Welcome to Steemit @joshdaoldman! :c)

That was a great introduction post.

Since you say that you learnt about Steemit on youtube I'm going to level with you. Steemit is a place where money can be earnt - but it will take real work. patience and connecting to make that happen.

The first step will be building your personal brand, and participating in comments.

Since you're new here, a quick read through this post may prove helpful.
