Hey Trevor Lyman! Thanks for your post. I'm new too. Just posted my first one yesterday. I like the simplified version you wrote. It can get so complex and I find it difficult to make sense of it all sometimes. I like when you say "you need to invest in Steemit". That's the idea I had gotten as I read the how-to posts. And you're right, it was my dad who told me about it! 😉
