I don't know why Steemit is so focused on new users (only % will only stay anyway) when perhaps they should focus on retention. Keep the talented writers here who are still writing, surprisingly, because they have already ignored the money concept and accepted the downright rejection. We have accepted that some of us are meant to be hungry (literally) and some people there can bask in their accumulated wealth (through friends) - that is also real life btw.

If the delusional people can wake up, they will see the reality. If not, go on live in laland.

So forget about the lure of money.
