Haha, imbue the spirit of the hustle into them!

I just got my brother who is the vice- mayor and longtime city council member of the city of San Gabriel California to join steemit today! @seahawksfan
He is a lawyer and a libertarian.
kind of a ball buster but definitely will add value to steemit.

Woah, that rules! Make sure he stays engaged! Who knows? Maybe he can get more citizens involved? That would be insane.

He works as the RE manager for a large (think 100's of billion big)retirement firm in Pasadena CA. They just had a board meeting today about going deeper into blockchain and bitcoin in particular. They have bought a big interest in coinbase recently as well.
After years of telling him about Bitcoin and Ethereum and even through the massive gains, it took his CTO to tell him to get into crypto.
At least I get to be right.
He has a big network and is connected in the California libertarian party and with a lot of local non-profits.

Ahh! Bitcoin! They need to dump all of their money into Steem, BitShares, and PeerPlays! haha

Im long on steem and bitshares hoping for eos , but now I am going to research peerplays. tyvm

PeerPlays is just a few days old, it isn't even really liquid yet, volume is crazy low. But the fundamentals are there and people are incentivized to hold because tokens pay dividends. There aren't many tokens either, so that's more scarcity. It's a decentralized betting platform with NO house edge. Also built on graphene. It's pretty insane, I'd highly suggest grabbing some if you can and HOLDING for the long term.
