Steemit can be a great source of income. But there is something you should keep in mind before quitting your job. When you do a job, you get paid on a regular basis. Every month you get salary and that’s how, you maintain your expenses and make a living. When you work on Steemit, you will get paid regularly, but you will be paid in cryptocurrency. 

As you know the price of cryptocurrecny such as steem and SBD fluctuates a lot, you will not get much if you convert that into fiat currency when the price is low. It is better to withdraw steem and SBD when the price of steem and SBD is high. But the thing is, no one can tell you for sure when the price of steem and SBD increases.

If you work on Steemit, you have to decide when you withdraw SBD and steem, and how you will maintain your monthly expenses. I don’t know how much money you need to pay your bill and monthly expenses. You should consider that before quitting your job.

Before quitting your job, the most important question you should ask yourself is that why you want to quit your job. It is because you do not like your present job, and you want to get a better one. Then find a better job and change your job. 

If you want to do something on your own, and all you want to be an entrepreneur, you should know something. Being an entrepreneur is not as cool as you see on Instagram. If you think it is something that you cannot live with it, you can go for it. Steemit will help you on your journey to be a successful entrepreneur. But it would not be a good idea to quit your job only for Steemit unless you make sure to have a continuous flow of income from it.


Believe it or not the best answer is 'Patience':

Do you think there were masses of individuals (non-companies) benefiting from google search when it was only 2 years old?

How about Youtube, do you think there where thousands, even hundreds living off just youtube post when it was 2 years old?

The answer is obviously no, but learning and having a head start now will help set you up to do really-really well on the Steem DAPPS not just Steemit, but almost every DAPP that gain mass traction.

Even becoming a great counsel, like a Musing.io master answerer, has the potential to help someone create a lucrative income stream and fulfill a service to the community

Imagine in 5 years, or 10 years time when Steem has 20 to 50 Million users, and Steem has passed $100, do you not think the userbase and the rewardpool and the thousands of SMT tokens will not reward someone who has sharpen their Steem posting, sharing, and other proof of brains skills to earn a generous if not then amazing income here?

This is possible, it's just a matter of time, be patient, start 'learning' now, build your surf board of knowledge, friends, and followers, get ready to ride the big coming Steem wave!

i would not really advice anyone to quit their jobs because of steemit,yeah i understand that steemit is a great platform where someone can earn some income but we also need to understand that income on steemit is not fixed,there are some months that someone can earn plenty income on steemit and there are times that the person might just earn a penny but when you are working and getting your salary your salary is consistent and every month you already know you will get paid,so i will advice a working class person to keep working and they can use their spare time to keep posting on the good platform called steemit..

To be very careful. Blogging on Steemit has no guarantees for a stable source of income. Earning tokens on Steemit can be possible, but the amount of them depends on a lot of factors and the value of the tokens also fluctuates a lot so if one plans on quitting his job and become a full time steemian should be very cautious. 

I wouldn't advise them to quit unless they have good passive income sources. Because they can continue blogging without quitting their current job. Steemit is in it's early stages and price of the steem is too volatile to make living with it.

Not recommended. Nobody knows what the future holds for Steem, so best not to put all your marbles in one bag
