I'm not a better man, I just don't enjoy those things because of personal reasons. I don't like big houses because I always feel like I'll get lost, and I don't like cars because I don't really like driving.
However, I do love computers, and I would be glad to spend $5000 in a day to get the computer I want.
I guess each person loves certain material things, and it doesn't have to be just to fill some voids in your life... maybe you just like those things. I don't think there's something wrong with liking houses or cars, as long as you don't invest all your money and as long as you don't sacrifice your life for those things.
Embrace the things you like, invest time into them, but don't forget to live. :)
I love driving. When I am on the road I feel at peace. Its the only place where I feel truely relaxed. I like computers too lol. If I had the cash I be all over the new microsoft surface studio. Thanks for takibg the time out to write. Sadly I am house poor, so I cant really live by your words. But one day I may sell it and get seomthing cheaper
Keep working, keep trying and you will, eventually, get where you want to be. I know I do this every day, and it's wonderful when it actually works, and when you see money coming in, little by little. Even the smallest amount feels great, when you know your worked for it.
Hope you get where you want to be, and you have all the money you need to invest in your passion. Best of luck! :)
I am trying. I have spent easily 200 hours on here in June and only made about $300. So things arnt looking that good but ill keep trying
If you keep trying and you keep working, you will get the rewards you want. Also, you need to be a little lucky.
I was, and I got some upvotes on some posts that got me $300 in around two weeks, and I don't think I spent as much time here as you.
You just need to work, post a lot, interact with people, and wait. You will, eventually, get something. Plus, some people work 8 hours a day, really damn hard, for those $300, so we should be grateful we got that amount of money while sitting in front of our computers :)
Wow youve done more with 200 posts then I have with 1200 I give up. It's hard to keep motivated when you see that. Congratulations on your success. Im gonna be taking a long break. Lol maybe go get a real job again
That's just like me, every aspect of my life has to be a pathetic challenge. I don't mean to seem like I'm bitching but everything I do is like ten times harder than the average person I give up. If this was a 100 years ago id be dead long ago. Darwin where are you already?
You shouldn't give up, I guess we just have a different approach when it comes to this website :)
You seem to upload a lot of kind of short posts, while not really writing long articles that teach other people something. I do the exact opposite - I use all the things I learned in the past about working, developing and making money online to share all that information with the people interested in reading it and learning from it. You seem to use the website kind of like a social media platform, which is understandable, while I use it more like a personal blog.
Also, I guess it really depends on how much time you spend interacting with people. On my good days I can spend 4 hours only writing comments, upvoting posts I like and talking to people.
I think if you would at least spend more time talking with others, like you're doing with me, now, commenting and making sure other people notice you by writing long comments full of value, you will get noticed and you will receive more rewards.
I don't think you should quit, I just think you should invest more time into the right things. Try to treat Steemit like a blog for around 2 weeks. Post long articles, try to teach people a few of the things you know, and spend time commenting on other posts and upvoting.
Another thing that may really help you is to look at your content, and think "if this would be another guy, would I follow him? would i upvote all his posts?". Also compare your posts to other people who make a lot of money. If the answer to those questions is "no", then that's your problem right there.
You seem like an interesting person, and I think you have things to share with others, from your personal life, that can teach other people something. Take the time and invest into writing articles sharing your stories and the things you know, and you may have a surprise when it comes to the rewards you get.
Also, make sure to interact with other people in this website. Write long comments, like this one, read their articles and talk about it in the comments, give useful information and feedback, and I assure you, you'll make a lot more than you're making now :)
