RE: TRAVEL: CREATIVE TIPS TO EARN MONEY - BROKEN TRAVELER EDITION
Wow @travelling-two, thanks a bunch! I extend the same offer for you, If you guys ever come to Brazil it'll be a pleasure to meet you.
Yes, I'll spend some time around here for sure but I'm having some dreams about going to Europe and cycling over there too. Guess it's excitement from meeting so many great travelers here on Steemit.
There's some nice cycle routes in Europe and it will be an adventure to visit many countries in Europe with that mode of transport. 😊 Best of luck saving up and eventually realizing your dream. It can be possible with Steem!
YEahhhhh! Could be! Plans for short term are to reach at least 500 SP, then I'll see how it goes. If I find concistency I'll keep powering up 50% of my earnings and cashing 50% to pay for traveling expenses.
But that's a long way from here hahahaaha
Do you guys cash out? Is it possible to make a living?
Yes, same we are hoping to reach 500 SP and move that slider to give less of our voting power, but more votes to many. Cashing out is not in our best interest at the moment as we see this as our alt. savings account. We did cash out 5 Steem to Ether to become SMART, so it stayed in the crypto world, yet nothing physical.
Your plan of 50/50 is smart and we would do the same if we were relying solely on the platform as our income. Is it possible to make a living? Well, there's a handful of Steemians that are, but they hustle hard for the platform - engage in multiple disciplines from community building and engagement to entering in multiple daily contests and daily (if not 2-3 per day) non-contest articles. Also, diversifying into DSound for podcast, DTube/DLive for videos and posting on Steepshot will help. We saw that you don't want to post on Steepshot to interrupt your blog layout, so we would suggest to open another account and let that one be like your non-professional account where you post random quality posts and this one the professional one with more structure.
Yeah it's a lot of hard work, indeed.
For now I'm divided between the school and here, but I'll leave the school next semestre.
I'm trying to upgrade my photograph gear and maybe getting a gopro, but my paycheck is not helping and they are way too expensive in Brazil. With those I'll be able to expand the way to work and bring even more about the crazy trips.
I like your idea of having a second account, but would be much easier if there was an option to disable Steepshot from sending all the pictures to Steemit, don't know if that is a blockchain's issue or Steepshot's code.
But it's been only 6 months that I'm here, a long journey to go.
Well, see how it goes in another six months when you have your one year anniversary and then decide whether to invest in gear or not. Just save as much as you can now to give yourself that option.
Hopefully, we can get to 500 SP by the end of the summer. It's our five months on Steemit anniversary soon and to have over 200 SP and almost 100 SBDs saved up isn't bad at all! Fingers crossed as we wait for the day when we can convert those SBDs (at a decent rate) and have over 300 SP. Therefore, the goal wouldn't seem too far away!
Everything is still in the process of adjusting, so maybe there will be that option on Steepshot soon. You should suggest it to the developers, but we're sure they probably received that feedback.
