If you go out and buy Apple or Amazon stocks, you always own the fifty shares you bought. If you buy Steem, well Steem " decays " away over time. However if you pay 20 cents for Steem you build up with Steem Power on that real money investment.

So if Apple or Amazon lose money then you investment shrinks and the best you can hope for is a Real Life Tax Office write-off. But if Steem value falls simply by using your company's platform you increase the value of your 20 cents per share investment, thus by using Steemit you are protecting your real life money investment.

Sure Amazon and Apple stock might be a lot more stable and predictable; but do you really think you can buy Blue Chip proven stock for 20 cents per share . . .

The thing about Steemit is the better articles over time tend to get better upvoting rewards, sure some click bait posts earn but check out the works of the higher reputations, you will see some quality work there . . .

Now is the time to reach for your cheque book and show your own small business some love, even a purchase of $10 worth of shares once a month would send the share price a powerful signal, the other 29 days of the month you can just work on improving your investment for FREE ! ! !

Like any investment, there are no guarantees; so do not gamble anything you cannot afford to lose.

After all money tends to make money : )
