Top Reasons Why:

• My friend currenly makes around $10/day on Steemit.
• I helped my female friend make thousands of dollars last summer on Steemit.
• I've made several dozens of dollars using my account in the past (which I've only reinvested).
• Even if the STEEM currency inflates, the amount of money you make is fixed using SBD, so you'll still make money.
• Top content creators are still making bank almost every day for only a few hours of writing despite the low STEEM price.

What The Future Could Hold:

• We have only seen what happens when a limited amount of cryptoenthusiasts gain knowledge of a blockchain-based money-making blogging machine suddenly comes into existence. What happened on July 4:th was not the entrance into the mainstream, but the sudden explosion in interest of the crypto niche community. The best yet still to come.
• People are extremely emotional when they put high expectations into a project which logically should take several years to fully complete. You still gotta think like a businessman, and to believe everyone can survive using only Steemit is very naive and a outright dangerous think to believe. Can anyone make it on YouTube? Can anyone make it as a taxi driver? No. So why opt out of such a new and beautiful idea like Steemit merely a year into its existence? And this is AFTER you have PROOF that even YOU can make money, be it only a few bucks, but it is still money. How many people can make YouTube money for minimum amount of work? Almost none! So it makes no sense at all, and these people are frankly crazy, and they are, of course, not entrepreneurial-minded and don't think like businessmen in no way, shape or form. It takes time and a huge amount of investing to be able to make it off things on the Internet, and you should respect this fact. Or else it will eat you up and you will absolutely fail.
• Wait. For fuck's sake, learn to fucking wait.
