📢 Into the (e)steemed future? - POTPOURRI TREASURE Contest - Week 4

Dear friends, welcome to Potpourri Treasure! For this week we are going to have the writing component only. Are you ready?

Put your thinking cap on and answer this question.

`It is 2317. Inspired by the Steemit model, the real world has become a place where everybody is rewarded for their actions. Every deed, big or tiny is instantly recorded and rewarded. The rewards are through points. Nobody knows why, but the points are called 'HungryPicas'.

It is a great world. Steemit is the number 1 social media platform around. All human beings: child, youth, adult or elderly, male or female, everybody, the whole world is on Steemit. It is a wonderful world to live in. 

However, there is one issue.

Taxes! A minimum of a 100 HungryPicas. To be paid every day. There are no excuses. In return for a food capsule the next day. (For details, please read: https://steemit.com/blog/@sandzat/you-in-the-future-world-and-a-request-for-help.)

In this world, you live. And in this world, you had a terrible time, last week. With no HungryPicas, nobody for whom you could do something, nobody to help, you went broke. And had to starve for 2 whole days!!

This sunny morning, however, at great risk to your own life, but luckily for you, you happen to save the life of a very good, well-known senior person. As a token of appreciation, she rewards you with 1500 HungryPicas! Unbelievable! Now, you don't have to work for your food capsule for the next 2 weeks! Immensely grateful, thankful, feeling on top of the world, but exhausted to the core, you decide to relax for a couple of hours. You want to lie there doing nothing, just enjoying the sun and the flowers. 

You design yourself a 3D printed comfortable bed and doze off all the way to dreamland. In your dreams, you timetravel to the year when the Steemit revolution began. And changed the world. Made everybody acknowledge each other. Appreciative of each other. 2017. Aah, you are there now. 

In your dream, you are an aspiring fiction writer during the nascent days of Steemit. 

Buzz! Zap. It's your nail computer. You are reluctantly dragged back to your present. By a newbie on Steemit. He needs help! Some HungryPicas. For himself and his family of 15!

Just when you were about to receive the review for your fiction piece from the legendary Hive account@rhondak.'
