Pretty nicely summed up, @markdeheide!
Lots of people are on steemit in order to create that surplus. But then many don't re-invest it. I've recently bought a piece of land from the Steem I've earned so far, so it seems I've fulfilled both of the two strategies :-)
Enjoy your steemy ride!
I'll follow your blog for more
Thanks @surfermarly what are you planning to do with the piece of land if I may be so blunt, how will you make sure you get a good return on that investment? :) Many more posts will follow shortly, with a new post in a few hours today! :)
You're welcome!
Well the land belongs to one of the best areas on my island. Tourism is growing strongly every year, so I'm pretty sure in a couple of years its value will be doubled :-)
Much success for your future postings
