Welcome to the newest edition to our page here at @pifc! To keep with the Pay It Forward frame of mind, we have decided to dedicate some time to Pay It Forward to our members. These are the men and women who on their own seek out to find the unnoticed, the undervalued, and the lost in the sea that is Steemit. They believe in the Pay It Forward philosophy. They want to help spread the word and encourage others to Pay It Forward as well. After all, isn't that what community is about, supporting and raising each other up?

@bengy
He started on Steemit in Dec 2017 and currently is a at Rep of 60. @bengy is not just a participant, he also pays back by being a sponsor. He has been involved with @thedarkhorse’s #PayItForward initiative since day one. Self described as "Musician with a Science background, I write about many things, causing collateral damage to a wide variety of topics!" I don't think there's collateral damage on our end anyway. He is one busy guy. Besides having a family with kids, traveling due to his profession, he writes articles regularly and is involved in some way with curating and helping out other initiatives (not just our own) to help build a good quality minnow base.
He has a true ability to find very unique individuals that need a thread of hope to get them through the beginning hurdles. The contests he holds are simple and fun. You can win a variety of things such as games (yes, actual video games) but mostly he gives away SBI @steembasicincome. For a plankton or newbie it is extremely helpful.

Here are a few of @bengy's most recent posts. It is worth the time to give them a look. Let's show him the support he has shown so many others.
Steem Basic Income Giveaway
The way @bengy does this giveaway is great. He presents a situation then asks a question. This week’s question being:
If you could have any superpower (it could be just mundane, but laws of physics are no barrier!), what would it be?
Why would you want that particular superpower over any other?
What could be potential downsides?
A great way to earn SBI, get yourself seen and get involved.
Curating Music History: Finale from 4th Symphony (Tchaikovsky)
You know The Nutcracker and Swan Lake by name and many other works by Tchaikovsky once you hear them. Here is your chance to learn a little more about Tchaikovsky.
My Dream Computer Game
Besides being talented in many formats, a family man among many other things he is a gamer. He gives a great description with comparison to other games he has played. Very enjoyable to anyone that has played video games.

It is a great idea! I'm looking forward to reading more about others in the community!
Another awesome initiative @pifc
It was good learning more about @bengy, I saw he not escaped any single week. Truely appriciating.
It's truly impressive that he hasn't missed a single week.
It's hard to escape a week as this is such a great thing to do!
happy to know you @bengy. thank for being with us here on this community, wish you all the best
Happy to be here and part of the @pifc!
Wow, I'm humbled! Thank you for featuring me in your first member spotlight, I'm looking forward to reading more about everyone! I always feel a bit weird reading about myself, but thank you for writing such nice things about me!
@pifc is one of the best things going on Steemit at the moment, encouraging interaction and community among different people and levels of accounts! It has been a great thing to be part of since the foundation.
Big shout out to the judges who are there week after week making it all run smoothly and visiting and supporting so many authors!
You do so much for @pifc...it's time to show you off. Not so much a pay it forward but a definite thank you.
Thank you for all of your effort you put into supporting the community. People like you are what make all this possible. All pifc does is provide a platform for people to show their true colors.
This is such a nice idea to do @pifc, and @bengy is a great person to start with! His support of the Pay it Forward Contest in terms of sponsorship and entries is a perfect example of the "type" of steemian this contest is attracting.
I also love his contests and his posts about his family. If you haven't read about he and his wife's ordeal of keeping their toddler in bed a night, you really should :)
Thanks again for the Member Spotlight :)
Thanks, happy to be a representative type!
I'm considering superglue to keep her in bed... We are at the stage where she just wanders in, doesn't say or do anything... Just stands with her face about 5 centimeters (24593187569 inch-feet-yards) away from your face. It is a heart stopping shock when you wake up...
Oh the days of the kids just wandering around without making a sound used to drive me crazy. All of a sudden you would get a feeling that you were being watched....because you were.
It's like the set-up for a horror movie! Totally creepy at times!
hahahahaha I literally laughed out loud with this one!!! You too will laugh about this one day :)
Glad you find it funny! I will find it funny later if I live through potential heart attacks!
hahaha yes you will @bengy! I'm still laughing about because I can just picture her face and what she must be thinking lol
Great addition to Pay It Forward community! It's nice to see @bengy featured in this spotlight post!
Thanks! I'm looking forward to reading about the many other community members that make it all work so well!
