It does vary on how much a certain amount of SP gives relative to dollars...Steem Price in dollars being the big one. So right now, I'd say about 15,000 SP would give close to $10 with a full vote at 100%..maybe a bit more.
The number in the brackets is SP that's been delegated to you. New users get that from a Steemit Inc account and is a temporary thing. You don't actually own it, but you reap the benefits while it remains delegated (i.e. you're vote give more $.) When the delegation is ended..it will return to the account that did that for you.
Wonderful, thank you so much for answering my questions, the best reply I have received so far.
KUDOS to you!
Hehe, more than happy to help out. Always feel free to ask me questions :)
Yeah sure, I have noticed some of the big guns (not all) here don't even bother to reply, they are just worried about getting more and more wealth on this platform, leaving all newbies alone in the ocean.
@allasyummyfood used to reply regularly to her followers and this is something motivates newbies to continue using this platform.
I hope you don't need the list of those Dolphins and Whales who never care about their followers :)
I can understand...on both sides of the coin.
But I do try to reply to everything, though I haven't been fully able to on the 'great post' sort of things with the 20 second comment timer being in place. But all the rest..I really try to. Though admittedly I have days I do miss things, but those aren't often luckily. :)
Atleast you try and this is what we want.
Keep up the good work!
