Very Nice! :) I might feature you in my blog post tonight.

What deal did you get? #curious Did you do a private deal with @an0nkn0wledge?

Yes. 90 day delegationof 750 SP for 100 SBD. It was the best deal I could find on Delegation.

That sounds like a blocktrades deal. :(
Next time you might want to try minnowbooster.
I calculated that to be a 55% APR

When I checked block trades it was at 600SP for 100SBD. And don't you have to be approved or something to do it through minnow booster? Plus i believe this guy was in a rough spot and needed help, so I don't feel bad at all about it. Plus I'm using mainly my positive ROI earnings here from posts to pay, so I'm not really looking or paying much.

Minnowbooster works pretty well but please hold off at least until Monday if you can. lol It's a bit rough on Minnowbooster right now but hopefully the investors will come on on Monday.

I would start upvoting your own comments to get some ROI if I were you. At least the ones that haven't reached the $0.02 threshold so your @dustsweeper balance doesn't get ate up. Any that you miss @dustsweepers would get for you.

Many upvote their own comments that already have upvotes on them but haven't reached the $0.02 cent mark.

Awesome ....

I want to join the 1000 SP " I got a slider club " .. :)

I would recommend buying or lesing some SP. It just takes toooooo long to grow organically. But I know either way YOU can do it. If anyone here deserves it it's you.

You are 100% correct!!!
Unless you are a newbie and convinced Steem will moon then if you want to make money you should get a real job. lol You can always buy Steem from regular work than trying to earn it the hard way.

To me its not only about making money but that is a very nice side effect. I see potential that the pennies we earn today will be worth dollars tomorrow. I look at growing an account organically as a challenge. I view the challenge as the same as I do some of my gambling activities. For example .. I use to play allot of poker on allot of different sites. I would pick a few sites and build from $0 to see how far I can take my account with 0 invested. Its a challenge to me.

That being said .. Steem currently has dropped to $1.35 .... SBD is at $1.08 .. If prices keep dropping ... I am buying. Its hard to pass up the sale that is going on. I would much rather buy Steem then lease it. I am not apposed to leasing and will give it a shot but not until I am close to that 500 SP mark.

50-1 is some pretty nice leverage. I did get lucky and got to do 200-1 on a couple deals.

I agree it takes way too long....

I am only at about 47 SP. On one side of the coin I want to take the quick route and invest money but on the other side of the coin I want to see how far I can take an account from scratch.

I think its important that we can show that its possible to be successful on Steemit without investments other then time spent on the site. To me its one of the key factors on if Steemit will moon or not.

I think I may open a second account and do my investing on that one while growing this one organically.
