RE: The 6 Best Types of Steemians
I love how you “balanced” the 5 worst with 6 best! You instantly added more positivity to the world. I would have considered myself the heartfelt commenter until I read “make sure that you properly upvote their comments”. That almost stopped me from admitting this... almost.
Ahaha, well I doubt any of us are on here just for the fun of it...maybe some, but of course there is a monetary incentive, and there would almost have to be for how much time and effort posting takes! In this new world it is not a bad thing to expect to be compensated for your time and I find that so alien, but also super exciting! So thank you for your heartfelt comment!
I am fortunate to have a well paying job that allows me live and do the things I like, but my goal is to one day become my own boss and Steemit gives me the practice I want to become a better writer. I also love the interaction and self-help posts here. I am furthering my goals by investing in crypto currencies and I am confident that Steem will be a big winner!
Yeah I run a non-profit and I am a stay at home mom to 3 kids. Neither of these things really pay anything. So my life is very full...just not of money haha. So while I love Steemit, I have to make it work for me financially too, and in a way, that is what is different about this platform, and what people should be expecting. If it were just about fun, you could have fun on Reddit. I would arguably say that some of the posts on there are even better than some on here. The financial incentive is what sets Steemit apart. People make money on here, and then decide whether or not to invest in the platform, which in a way gives each of us even a small voice as "investors". That's what I like about Steemit!
I agree that reddit and tumblr have way better content.... but it’s that pesky little detail that sets us apart from them: monetary incentive! I try to stay off the other social media sites as much as possible (except as a #steemambassador)
I only come on here for the fun it! lol.
Maybe this explains why I'm not earning much - but I want to.
I am fluent in English to a very high standard - but it is hard to get it - in context sometimes of what I want to/try to say.
It's all ok, ill keep playing, and hopefully it will grow into something...
(My partner @lucylin, takes it more seriously, and he is doing ok.)
