I wonder if you could explain this part of your post a bit more:
My goal here in Steemit is to stay true and live up to the expectation of the block chain system. Producing quality content while educating our audience is key.
It's completely legid to buy yourself a top trending position - it's your investment in the end - but we have a saying here that with more power comes more responsibility.
So if you promise living up the Steem spirit and even educating people - but then you don't do it, then you are not really reliable and one might think you are only here to generate a quick buck.
Integrity is everything. So if you want to "live up to the expectation of the blockchain system" as you called it, then you should just do that.
I downvoted this post for disagreement on rewards. It will not have a significant impact on your payout, but it's the way the consensus mechanisms works on Steem. Some agree and others don't :-)
This is nothing personal and no offense, just giving you an idea of the influence but also vulnerability you have when being at the top. Accountability is everything :-)
