RE: Steemit Essentials - Know Your Budget with SteemSupply

in #steemit6 years ago

I love Steemsupply. You know how I shy away from using any of the sites that require my login keys, and this site does not. It's nice knowing when payouts are going to happen.

Maybe down the road you can put together a post/video on why one would lease SP. I haven't been able to understand how it isn't better to just power up if that is your long term goal.

Thanks for another informative video.

Hey there! Great to see you. You have read my mind about leasing SP. I have been studying the cost/benefits of it just as I have been studying results on bots, resteems, and trending page impact. I have a bunch of stuff that I will be posting about it in the next 2 weeks. First, will be a review of Steemworld that I've been researching. I use it, but not for the same reasons others use it. In any event, thanks again for commenting. I would really like to see you enter the #payitforward contest or at least share your thoughts in the comments there. We need more smart people involved.

My apologies for taking so long to get back, but I know you understand as many projects that you devote yourself to. Mine are more selfish, as I read things and then lose my time investigating, lol. I took a stab at the contest as it is a worthy project. It was rough, as most of those who began around the time I did that I connected with are either over 50 rep or they quit, which signals the need for this project. I had to randomly pick a third person because of this.

Hope all has been well. Guessing you are back into the flow of your work day now that you have been back a few weeks. Looking forward to your posts on SP, bidbots and such. I have formed an opinion on the bidbots that leans towards them being negative for most, as my experimentation with them showed me that more often than not they result in a loss for the buyer/profit for the bot owners and those who delegate to them. I am unsure there could ever be a solution though as before their existence they say the whales just circle voted one another and it was still a handful of faces dominating trending. I do think newcomers time is better spent cultivating connections such as ours and putting whatever rewards or Steem they purchase straight into their SP.

I will admit that part of what brought me here were videos (some by witnesses) that showed posts making hundreds, but there wasn't mention that the votes were bought. I feel that lie is bad for the platform and a more truthful sharing of what is to be expected should be put out there. It serves the site no good to make people think it would be a breeze to earn out hundreds per post. Probably plays some part in the low retention rate here. Thankfully I am stubborn and stuck to the same losing formula long enough to find people like yourself, hahahaha.

Here is my leasing delegated sp post. I do it and my son @bxlphabet does too and I think anyone under a 1 dollar vote should do it too if they can.

Minnow tip - Lease Delegated SP ASAP Now is a Good Time

I agree completely. I lease over 4000 SP. The returns on my upvotes and expanded network of "friends" has increased my SP more than the cost in Steem so a "net gain".
