RE: What price of steem let's you quit your job and just do this full time?

in #quityourjob8 years ago

The only question I would have with relying on Steemit is this: "How would you use your Steemit funds in day-to-day living without giving up Reputation/Power/Steem?"

I mean, the best thing about Steemit is that you can generate Steem and keep your Train on the track so that when the Steem cryptocurrency reaches to the sky you can cash out for a huge profit.

Sort:  

I'm not telling you that you can power down and cash out. I'm saying that you won't need to because the services will be available.

I wouldn't want to power down. I'd want to keep gaining momentum for the future, but I wonder what I would use, monetarily-speaking, for my daily wants and needs (if I only did Steemit, that is). As an example, how would I use STEEM to purchase my groceries without wiping out a good chunk of STEEM every time I needed groceries? This is where I think I would keep my other money-makers in play and have my normal job to make the money I use day-to-day.

It's a matter of scale right? Only way to actually grow your account is to spend less than what you earn. If you can leave cheap it doesn't take much. If you spend a lot then you have to earn more. yeah, I don't want to give up steem or SBDs, but I also want to continue engaging in commerce but not supporting the FED. Not a ton of options...

I'm writing a piece on the stuggle of the different growth stages. I'm using your salmon quote. Hopefully taht's cool (I'll give you credit)

That would be great. Put my name on and maybe I can get someone higher on the food chain to follow me. It's all about branding and marketing yourself to the right audience. So far, it's not been too kind to me, but I'm confident I'll climb the ladder.

starting off is brutal. Hang in there. Maybe this will help a little.
