RE: A Few Words of Caution About Upvote, Resteem and Other Scammy Offers, from a "Road Worn" Steemit Contributor

Thanks for the kind words, and the support!

I think we live in the age of the "lottery effect." More and more look at life and see it as a place where you need to make "none big score" and then you're set for life... rather than the traditional way of :dedicated work over time."

I don't quite know where to lay the blame... or of there is even blame TO be laid... but the "shortening" of everything probably has part of the responsibility. Instead of "articles" we communicate in 140 character tweets. Everything happens in smaller and smaller bits... including (it seems) how people think they can create wealth.
