Hahhaha, Love the response!
I had almost 10K Steem Power in the past and my vote wasn't worth anything.
I would have to purchase 500K Steem Power and then maybe there would be a better chance of making it back.

Steem Power is actually much more effective these days due to the experiment.

That is very true. I clearly wished I wouldn't have had to power down and sell that Steem at this point.
I'm mainly still gauging by situations where other people have upvoted me at 100% and I have seen what that upvote was worth in relation to their Steem Power holdings.
The main thing I think doing it would help me with is to be a bigger fish and get more recognition from other big fish. Then when they see me helping out with increased power they are more likely to help me out with an upvote. It is hard to calculate that return.
Also I will likely gather more followers during that time where I would have more power.
