My Friends don`t Believe in Steemit!
Hey Guys, I don t know how your experience is but I want to share mine. When I start to talk about Steemit my friends just think it is a big fake. They don t want to believe me that people can earn money on steemit. I just want to show you some screen shots from a conversation with a friend
I am asking: "Do you know the currency steem?"
My friend replayed: "Cryptocurrency?"
I am writing: "exactly, do you want to share your economy knowledge on this platform and earn a bit, ? The more people we will become the bigger the community, and I send the link of steemit.
Answer of my friend: "I don t like snowball system. Because I prefer to buy shares and live on the returns. You can write me in few months to tell me how much you managed to earn with it. And try to make real money with it. Bitcoins are a good investment. But steem? I doubt it. You have to google and then you will be smarter."

Then I get this link from my friend.
Another replay of this person: "And the opportunity cost, I rather go to work"
At the end this person began to bully me: "Please do me a favor and do not go into strange cars if someone offer you chocolate"
:D What do you think about this conversation? I just can say I believe in steem!
Steem On! Steemers let s get BBIIIIGGERRRR!
Muhahah
I hope you are enjoying your day, too!
And by the way, I convinced already 2 of my friends to post on steemit:

One of my biggest goals in the future is to reach freedom!!
Big Hug Lena <3 <3
If someone isn't convinced, let them be. Try someone else. The skeptics will come last.
I was going to mention this. This is an important point when talking about innovation and adaptation. I have friends and relatives who don't believe nor in bitcoin.
Perfect
thanks !! :)))
Nor do mine :)
But they will eventually.
I am sure they will all regret that they bullied us :D
Hallo Lena, ja so sind die Menschen. Mir geht es genau so. Ich schicke ihnen sogar Links zu meinen Posts zum Lesen. Aer selbst da hölt sich das Feedback in Grenzen. teilweise musste ich mich auch verteidigen, weil ich ein 2 BTC investiert hatte. Nun ist mein Account mehr als 4 BTC wert bei viel höherem BTC-Kurs. Aber die Sache hat auch eine positive Seite: Wir sind die "early adapters", d.h. wenn die anderen aufspringen, sind wir schon viel weiter fortgeschritten, haben unsere netzwerke aufgebaut und Erfahrung gesammelt.
Übrigens gibt es in Deutschland schon einige Steemit-Stammtische. Ich bin in München Co-Organisator.
genau wir sind die early adapters und die Zeit wird die Antwort geben :) jaaa ich möchte das nächste mal wenn ich Zeit haben gerne dabei sein, wann ist der nächste Steemit Stammtisch ?
Hier ist der Link zu unserem Münchner Stammtisch:

Wir würden uns sehr freuen, wenn du demnächst mal teilnimmst.
Du triffst hier garantiert auf lauter Gleichgesinnte!
Haha, I send them links and don't even mention anything about the post rewards.
50% of the time they are like "what does that $ thing mean? how much do they take in comission?" - "0." and then they say it must be a scam, its kinda funny actually.
I've had 50% success rate with this type of discussion within my friends. All the Artists think it's way cool and are totally signing up. Same with my internet- geeky friends. I usually just tell them what my account is worth and that it started at almost zero.
I also stress how the community and platform has helped me to focus on my songwriting and pursuit of knowledge (especially in the crypto world). You basically have to integrate Steemit into your life. Some ppl are just not interested in doing that.
Have you showed this friend you're account? I don't know about you..that often works for me. Except for the 15$ worth of Steem I bought as a learning experiment, I've mined the rest through original content and through review of other's excellent work. That alone usually convinces skeptics, especially since I'm no whale lol.
yeah I can imagine this platform will be very interesting for artists. Yes I am integrate steemit step by step into my life, it is still a big jungle for me :p Yes I showed my friend my account, but this person just said: You have to show me that this money is real. Totally stubborn. hehe thank you for your comment !! wish you a good night, at least in Germany is night :)
We all had that "this is to good to be true moment" but when you spend some time in here & see how things are, you'll definitely change your mind, i hope your friend will be convinced soon!
exactly , thanks for your comment !!
You welcome ;)
The most important thing, you knnow steem , bitcoin are real
Thanks for sharing
Enjoy your day
you are welcome, ya this is true, thank you !!
I've been on Steemit since the end of July last year. I convinced 3 people to join, but I'm at the stage of giving up on everybody else.
:D I know exactly how you feel, we have not to give up and time will show the answer ! thanks for your comment , greetings Lena !
I am new also and I can now get paid for some of what I used to watch on utube, might only be penny's but it is a start. Welcome!
"Because I prefer to buy shares and live on the returns".
Well, they are in for a rude awakening soon aren't they when the stock market nosedives. Won't be so smug then. I bet they don't believe in buying silver either, do they ;)
I dont think so :D thanks for reading :)
Freedom is a great goal,I too strive for it.Keep being yourself and spreading the word,you reached me on my first day here.
thank you very much for your warm feedback, I will !!
