I was just browsing through my blog and my previous posts just to walk down memory lane a bit.
I have to admit I have done my fair share of shit posts also.
With the sudden rise of SBD I felt like I have to publish a post everyday otherwise I would miss out too much.
Steemit Fomo
I remember a while back there was a post which did really well $ wise and I kind of was thinking "that is too much".
Dont get me wrong I like money as much as the next person, maybe even more but it felt weird to earn this much for a picture I just took with my phone.
My most successful post made around 100$ (this was when Steem was around 1$ so it was a bigger deal back then) and was one of my Wim Hof diary posts.
I enjoyed writing the diary and I always used pictures of Wim Hof himself and some Whale gave me a generous upvote for one of these posts.
I like to think it was my persistent but it could also be possible he thought I did the picture or just dumb luck.
But the harder I worked the luckier I get
I know there are new Steemians who want to achieve what I have achieved here so far but I am also looking up and wish I had the success of xx or yy.
Will there be a point where I will be satisfied or I am just a greedy bastard?
Lets assume Steem will hit 100$ at one point, the reward pool will be huge in $ terms and the most successful ones will be making thousands of dollars per post would you be happy with a couple of hundreds?
It would also be interesting to see what kind of life we would life then, would we be a bunch of champagne zipping do-nothing-people sitting in our bathtubs full of caviar or would we thrive more and change the world for the better?
Maybe even both at the same time?
