Introducing me

in #introduction6 years ago (edited)

Hi there,

Just taking the time to introduce myself here on Steemit and talk a little bit about myself. Well, I'm a husband, dad and I'm a musician. After spending 10 years in IT, I gave it up and have only recently figured out what my calling in life is - to become a music producer. Everything I do for money at the moment boils down to freelancing. So, I write, I teach, I do whatever I can to make extra money. Topics I have knowledge of are music, cryptocurrencies, philosophy.

Hello sirneutral! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

  1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
  5. Have Fun and Enjoy!

Hey welcome my friend ! I hope you will have a great time on the blockchain :) Nice to have you here around and that you are changing your way of living right now. Someday I want to do this too but at the moment I have a big debit to pay so fulltime job is still my safest option :)

Thanks. I know what you mean about debt. I have a mountain of debt that I need to pay off but I've tried various jobs that never, well, paid off. So here I am, changing my career at 31. I might need some advice on getting my music uploaded haha.

What advice ? I think making a video (even if it is a picture ^^) and upload it to youtube to promote for example ? Or do you mean a shop thing?

Or do you mean using the steemfest Blockchain and push it to dsound ? ;P

Big advice is of course to produce more content here to get some more followers. Of you have a audience you can get easy support of people. If you uploaded something anywhere I can recommend you on a steem music community which is planning to start a steem record label :)
