It is a goal that I think I (at least partly) share - to mutually assist people (including myself as a consequence) in earning a supporting wage, and ultimately a 'living wage'.

Also the idea of a 'sociology of Steemit' is probably integral to the long-term viability of the project. A common wealth approach, rather than a for-profit approach, is the obvious direction that Steemit (currently) appears to be in danger of not taking.
