My reasons and how I joined hive.

I joined hive towards ending of May this year and I will be sharing my initial reason and how I joined this amazing platform.

I was in school, and the prices of things where extremely high. That made it difficult for me to survive daily even with the pocket money I was receiving from my brother. My school is a private school and we are not allowed to cook by ourselves in the school which made it worse as I have to spend alot of money buying food from the cafeterias. I would have chosen to ask my parents to fund me with more money but I didn’t just want to be a burden to them and I also want to be self independent and for me to atleast be able to feed myself a little bit even without the help of my parents.

Due to all this, I messaged a brother of mine on WhatsApp and informed him about the challenges I was facing in school and how things where very expensive so he adviced me to join the platform.

At first, I didn't want to join and the reason was because he said I should join the vibes community straight away and I didn't really have a very good voice. Also, I was one of those who really didn't have much faith in cryptocurrencies. But he persuaded and encouraged me and said I should give it a try and with time I could become better with my voice and even learn alot of things as times goes by.

Eventually, I decided to join and he referred me to another brother who is also on the blockchain Hive account@adesojisouljay. He was the one who helped me to open my account and he sent me the necessary keys for my account as well.

My first and introductory post on the platform was on the #vibes community but overtime I have found interest in writing on the blockchain and i am just trying to enjoy my time on here by bonding with people and making several good connections.

I know I said my initial reason for joining was to atleast make some money to take care of myself and to be sincere it has really been helping me out in those ways.

However, with the amount of time I have spent on the blockchain, I have had the opportunity to know the relevance and importance of staking up hive, and I would also love to continue powering up and atleast have enough to give others a good value and allow them pay out a good amount on their posts as several other whales and users have done the same for me.

Thanks for reading.
