Delayed Gratification
Put all your effort into getting shares of Hive account@steembasicincome. SBI will upvote any post you make on any Steem platform (dtube, parley, dlike, ...).

• Your goal will be to get enough shares of SBI so every post you make will be above dust level. (somewhere between $0.02 and $0.03 depending on which study you believe...) That way you will be guaranteed a reward for your efforts. At the current Steem market price, you will need around 25 shares to get your $0.03 upvote, if you post once daily.
• Look for contests that offer shares of SBI. Enter all you can! Good luck!
• As you start earning don't power up right away. When you start out most of your SteemPower is delegated. Steemit Inc. delegates you to 15 SP. If you power up, the delegation goes down to maintain you at 15SP. Therefor you can see, you are spinning your wheels.
  • Example: Let's say you won a contest and got 1 Steem.
    • If you power up that one Steem, you will get an extra 1 SP, but delegation goes down and you still have equivalent of 15 SP.
    • If you instead purchase a share of SBI, you will start receiving guaranteed upvotes on your posts, for life.

NOTE: When the price of Steem rebounds, the upvote you receive from SBI will increase. Current price is $0.75. If it gets up to $3, your 25 shares should earn you a $0.12 upvote... on every post... for life...

TLTR
Set a goal of 25 shares of SBI.
