Maaaaaaany people I know and I met before. People from my past, relatives, friends, ex girlfriends, people I just met. These are "Them".

Since the very first day I been in Steemit I've been surrounded by AMAZING people that helped me to get further and further... I found a lot of support and a lot of possibilities in this social platform and the truth is that I I always wanted to share this with my friends and relatives.

So this is why I have shown them how much money you can make here in Steemit, with cryptos and how cool an investment here around would be.

Until now, absolutely ZERO people followed my advice.

I am not sure about the why, but the truth is that they are missing a lot of opportunities. Mostly because other monster social platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. use the people like if they were pieces of meat going straight to the slaughterhouse.

I remember all these people or most of them that haven't started or even tried here around yet. And they just keep posting their stuff, sometimes good, sometimes stupid and senseless. But they are giving their content, ideas,
images, pictures, information, presence and views/likes for free to a company that makes money from all this.

Of course I am not saying that Steemit doesn't make money from it, but it gives something back, and not only something, but I believe it's really generous.

I talked about this in a previous post, a pretty good one I must say. And it's because people don't trust.

Exactly, people don't trust themselves, they don't trust others but more importantly...

I am talking about the same system that leaves the people without any opportunity to grow (for example, In whole Latin America... the place where I come from. You can't grow up any further because they will take you down).

The same goes for the works and employees. They have gained a lot of authority (not leadership) and they make use and abuse of it, treating people like numbers and leaving them on the streets.

Not to say that lately with the globalization we all lost values and the meaning and importance of the honor. Betraying friends and colleagues in one or more ways. Becoming hedonist and absolutely egocentric, because this is what the media without limits does to us.

All these things plus many more (dysfunctional families... such as mine. Bad economic strategies, ignorance and poorly designed school education, etc) collaborate all together to make people scared, to make them feel fear, to not be certain about anything. Just one thing: that they are not strong and good enough.

So they just give up. Before even starting.

Still, we did it. We ARE here. We saw the possibility and we didn't let it go. I am happy for you, my fellow steemian, for you and for me. Because we saw it together and even if maybe we were scared, we came all together in this and make this possible.

Thank you for being there. Thank you for not being like all those others, Them. Thank you for trusting in this system and for making it awesome all together.

Thanks a lot for your support and I see you in the next one!

Bye!
