"Ok, hear me out. The amount of Steem you're going to earn is very likely to go down."
If the value of Steem will be high, we do not need to earn much. :)
"Yes Steem is 15-20 cents today, and your wage is only like $5 an hour right now"
Maybe I am alone, but I would be very happy even for $5 per hour. What I am saying. Even for $5 per day. Nowadays I am earning cents with my posts. But I am still posting.
