RE: The Opinion Chat #2: If Steem Was High Enough In Value, Would You Quit Your Job And Work Full-Time On Steemit?

in #toc7 years ago

No! Don't do it!

Lots of people did this last summer. Then the price tanked. Then they got really upset and lashed out...blaming pretty much everyone but themselves.

Don't gamble on potential money in your pocket. It's not yours until you have realized the gains. If you have already pulled the money out and it's enough for you to live comfortably, then that might be the time to consider whether or not a steady income from an actual job is no longer necessary. Speculating on prices and hoping that they remain high isn't a good replacement for actual income.

But it sure is fun to dream, isn't it?

Sort:  

Good advice. That was my plan to get enough of a nest egg going that I don't have to worry about money. But you naturally think like that when you work freelance.

But if the price was 100% stable (which would never happen) it sounds like your on-board.
