I have always wanted to see the price of Steem go up so that I could see my VP increase in value. I get great pleasure from handing out money that isn't coming out of my own pocket! As you pointed out though, it is a double-edged sword. By giving bigger votes, we stunt our growth. This is why I did the spreadsheet and made myself aware of the error in my thinking. For me, it would be better to have a low Steem value so that I can grow my account faster and raise my SP. THEN, once I have LOTS of SP, the price of Steem can go to the moon and I'll see myself handing out huge votes! Oh what joy that would be!!!

Thanks to @leggy23 for the re-steem! I'm glad you saw this.
If you want regular up-votes from me on a daily basis, you are welcome to join the next zombie game which will begin in a couple of days. The votes are still small, but better than the 4 cents I could only give before.
