RE: STEEM "Shilling" Contest - 300 STEEM in prizes (results)
thank you so much. I talked to so many people at the parade and car show explaining what steem was. It was almost comical when they would tell me it was fake money or a ponzi scheem and i would point at the carburator on the car and say well i bought that $800 carb with imaginary money then. Suddenly they were all ears. I got quite a few of them to jump on there phones in an attempt to prove me wrong. Eventually i would show them on my phone how easy it is to do everything from transfering money to claiming rewards and making posts. I think about 80 to 85% of them finally came around. you could see the light in their eyes when i would ask them if they were on twitter , facebook, instagram and they would say "yes" and i said do you get paid for all your effort and they would laugh and say "no" ....... So i would show them my pay out history and some other peoples payouts that were much more than mine and you could just see it. It was beautiful. The tiny spark of now knowing that their thoughts and work are worth something. I imagine i had that same look on my face 2 months ago when my first tiny payment came in and I to realized that i was worth something. thank you @timcliff . i do truely appreciate it. We now have the steem logo on both cars. Unfortunatly our 1st race today got canceled due to weather.
