There aren't that many people on Steem but so many seem to require the immediate income from it.
You must be one of the few people out there that isn't terrible with money living paycheck to paycheck. I would say about 90% of the people I know fall into this category.
I definitely live paycheck to paycheck over the last 2.5 years however, I am also one of those people who backs myself to continually be employed regardless of economic conditions. The trick is to not sleep ;D
