Hi @dobartim, I really appreciate this opportunity you have created to let the voice of the voiceless be heard.
I am Udekwu Desmond from Nigeria and a graduate of biochemistry at Michael ọkpara University in abịa state. I come from a middle classed (not too rich, not too poor) family of four kids and I happen to be the first born child. I lost my dad when I was 19yrs and ever since, my mum has kept the fire burning with my three sisters in the university. I am 25yrs old without a job or a means of livelihood,but this ended, when steemit was introduced to me by a close friend I call "brother" @sistem and it was like a life changing experience for me since then,owing to the fact that I am over aged to be in the same roof with my mum and siblings, was constantly being asked for little money by my sisters and needed financial breakthrough to at least tend to my own needs. I am currently not on discord because of the kind of phone I use in steeming and my phone has a very poor Internet reception which has been a very big challenge to my progress here and the major reason I haven't introduced steemit to my younger sisters is because, a blind man cannot lead a blind man. I haven't made enough waves on steemit or earned a mouth watering sbd that will be convincing enough to win souls for steemit, but irrespective of these challenges I have been facing on steemit that tends to limit how much I make, I still look to the brighter side of life, hoping for a breakthrough someday. A day I will get a better phone and a laptop to ease the stress, because I stay up to 3min to load a page on steemit (highly time consuming) most times. I think that day is here and this opportunity was made for me.
The burden of tuition fee for my sisters in school is getting tough on my aging mum that is fast heading towards retirement and the best way out is to help out.
HOW CAN I ACHIEVE THIS.?
¶¶I intend introducing steemit to my sisters so they don't depend too much on either me or our mum.
¶¶I vision a time I will be making $500 on a single post like you have said earlier @dobartim and with this, I can decide to pay one of my sisters' tuition fee, till she graduates.
¶¶I also intend using my successful testimonies on steemit to introduce it to those around my neighborhood and save a life just the way mine was saved. I see a lot of unemployed youths, roaming the streets with no hope for a better TOMORROW, Smoking and drinking away their lives with some of them thinking of mischievous ways to make ends meet. I will let them know that steemit is the WAY to go!
I know these dreams are achievable because steemit is a world with gold mines. The ticket is all I plead for.
God bless, as you grant my request .
Yours sincerely,
