RE: How I Made $15,000 in 12 Hours on the New Blockchain Based Social Media Site Steemit
Awesome post @dollarvigilante Ive never made more than 80 cents myself and I think my quality is pretty good as a new whale I would appreciate your support Here on my post
The whales, dolphins and fellow minnows are very generous, especially to those who do great work. It gets noticed, even though it might not show up right away monetarily. People remember who was respectful, or who helped out a minnow with no real monetary reward for themselves.
Steemit will only succeed if we continue to truly care about each other and give constructive criticism. Whales votes are very valuable and so if they were to reward people who constantly beg for a vote and whine when they don't get it, that would reflect poorly on not only the whales reputation, but if steemit becomes a place where content is the same as anywhere else, it will no longer maintain it's value.
We are investing in each other (both time and money). Unless you invested a lot of money, you are starting from a small new poster to becoming a larger fish who should spend time helping newcomers gain knowledge to advance their own unique voice. It's a critical time to make sure people have a positive connotation associated to steemit and decide to stay for not only the money, but the community as well. Congrats @mrgey on being rewarded for your hard work here. (Guessing your username is not a 50 shades of reference lol) and thanks for being a valuable member of this community/ecosystem)
While I have made over $.80 before, I am still learning what my voice as a writer will be. Keep pouring out what you are passionate about and not what you think will be the next trend and I will see you on the way to whaleship!
Thank you bendj :) I have been truly blessed here, I am really also happy to see you go past the 80 cents mark :) wooohoo so congrats to you also bud.
PS: my name is in reference to 50 shades.
You truly have been. I believe you are the type of person who will use this success to encourage other people who are trying hard (had you given up or whined, this would never have happened for you).
I would be lying if i said I 100% didn't care about the money here. We all strive to make money here by being creative and helpful.
I can honestly say that I value the community here more than the money. The people here are what motivate to make creative content. I've learned a lot about myself in less than a month. (More than the entire time I've spent on other social media).
I'll wager a guess that maybe your name is Christian 😀.
@mrgrey you and @dollarvigilante are both exactly what Steemit needs at this time. High quality content producers are flocking to Steemit and being rewarded handsomely. This in turn, incentivizes the top content producers in other genres to follow suit. As a critical mass of these authors jump ship over to Steemit something amazing will happen. The average internet user will find themselves more and more often reading their favorite news or special interest stories on Steemit. As more readers flock to Steemit the content producers will have no choice but to follow suit. This closed feedback loop amplifies viewer and author registration until people who are late adopters find themselves on Steeemit daily.
This can only happen on Steemit.com

Thank you pjheinz it is actually all @dollarvigilante on this one I am just the guy who got blessed!
Don't sell yourself short @mrgrey. The value you are providing to the ecosystem with your quality posts is significant.
very true. That's why gotta reward those that shares big ;)

And also as @dollarvigilante himself revealed on the podcast with @ned and @dan, no knowledge of what steem, steem dollars, or steem power is needed. He literally posted just to see what would happen.
Once he saw he made 15k, then he was interested in finding the workings behind the steemit blockchain and what brings value. As touched on in the podcast as well, you don't need to know how a car works to get from a to b. And to further the car analogy, when you need to cash out to an exchange and are confused about how to do it, it's like taking your car to the mechanic for a checkup. I will personally help people turn their steem or steem dollars into fiat money (me being the mechanic in this scenario).
I use bittrex.com and coinbase.com to get real US dollars (or other Currency). It's a little technical, but I am happy to help those not confident in their exchange skills (you do not want to make a mistake, because that could cost you a lot of money). [email protected] for those who need help. 😀 I only ask that once you learn and are comfortable, that you help another user who may be confused.
It looked fishy you gave your email to help users in private...
So Ι spontaneously flagged your comment...
After your "message" and reviewing your other comments and your account, I changed my mind and tried to remove my flag... unfortunately it was not possible after the post pay out!The system don't let me...
It is ok! Maybe you can upvote another post I do that you find valuable. (I am going to propose the idea of when you flag content for a bubble to show up that lets you flag for spam, hate, or other would let you fill it in. At least that way you can actually know what a person was flagging you for, if they didn't take the time to respond as you have.
I would have been happy to offer my services on steemit chat, or another place, but email is something I don't mind giving out. I understand why you found it fishy, but was a little disappointed, because helping other people is one of my biggest passions. (Even more so than making money. Making money is a fringe benefit of helping and entertaining people).
I like your posts a lot and we have exchanged a few words here and there in the comments before, which was why I was confused. Glad you told me why, and no harm done. I hope that it doesn't lower my reputation too much, and thank you for trying to keep people who may appear fishy from potentially preying on others. Your intentions were good. :)
The success of @mrgrey's comment highlights the beauty and power of Steemit! We have been speaking recently online and found out we actually live 30 minutes away from each other in the South Coast of South Africa, and would never have met had It not been for Steemit.
I was blessed to have been involved early in the beta and to be actively promoting Steemit with a the global @steemdrive billboard campaign. Today we were proud to present proof of flight of the first official blockchain crowdfunded billboard on the Steemit platform and many more world wide are in the pipeline.
I have always wished I could change the world and now Steemit and its community has given me the power to do it!
Thanks for the upvote Jeff (@dollarvigilante), I believe you know @instructor2121 (Rick Miller), he is on my liaison team as well. I welcome you to co-brand a billboard with us in your area. Caption: "The Anarchast Blogs on Steemit!" :)
@steemdrive The World isn't getting smaller, STEEMIT and the crypto-community is getting BIGGER!!
Full $teem Ahead!

What I love about Steemit, is that you can go to sleep and wake up to find a flurry of supportive comments. We will be a force to reckon with very soon!
@steemdrive I believe you are correct in stating that we will be a force to reckon with. FULL $TEEM AHEAD!
@streetstyle
ps thanks for the upvotes, much appreciated.
Rock on! Now if I could just get the different pseudonyms people are using correct... ;-)
lol thanks Luke! @thecryptodrive and @steemdrive is me, I also post for @bravenewcoin, but don't own the account.
And the success of your response is confirmation!
:) :) 🚀🚀👍👍
Bud you know how I was joking earlier ? lol look at what steemit has done ! im off of my feet.
i hope I can get as successfull as you two!
Your contribution on this site always comes around to reward you when you least expect it. ;)
suddenly I find myself dumbstruck lol I have never thought that this would could happen on a comment especially when I was just trying to get a initiative on the go, thank you guys I really appreciate it @acidyo I see what you mean.
well there ya go, haha
hey @mrwang I love your posts bud, I have definitely been blessed here.
may i know where to start contribute here?
$1,500 for a comment??!!! Wow!
This is how the internet works, now...
exactly so @dollarvigilante I am utterly and totally blown away, where in the world could anyone make that on a blog comment ? thank you for your support dollarvigilante its done more than you can imagine.
@dollarvigilante You'll quickly see around here with great Steem Power comes great responsibility. Once you accumulate enough you will have developed a bit of a "Midas Touch" so to speak when it comes to voting power, and your ability to curate the content seen by others that use the platform.
Here's a link to the Steemit White Paper if you haven't read it already. It explains all the fundamentals of the platform in pretty extensive detail.
Same here I think I have made .42 cents but I do think that steemit is a game changer, as the users grow and and system evolves over time the sky is the limit!!!
I like your attitude and that you did not beg the whales to upvote you as well (as I'm sure that gets tiring) but here's a token of appreciation for your positive outlook and the larger picture view that continuing to work hard and not rely on gains in the short term is how steemit it really going to be valuable!
I ask that when you grow, you continue to pay it forward and reward posts and people who have the long term best interests for steemit.
Now you made more than 80 cents with this comment! :) Im happy about your visits and upvotes at my blog too. Kind regards. Jonas
over 240$ on a comment, very nice. I am happy for you!
Steemit is pure magic sometimes.
Now i have to look my first @dollarvigilante Video evarrrr! Cu
I have listen and read The Dollar Vigilante blogs and videos for the past two years, I highly recommend his work!
What a fantastic post, I like the majority of people on steem continue to post, vote and curate without much success. It can be a little disheartening, especially when you see what other content there is out there! There are numerous "whales" that are supporting content from other authors which is very admirable and I should imagine incredibly well received. The whole concept of steem is extraordinary, but I do feel there will always be an element of luck involved in making the multi dollar generating posts; "right place-right time"!!
Well done @dollarvigilante, keep up the great posts; I'm off to post a black &a white photo of a cup of tea with the title "Earl Grey or Darjeeling"???
