Most of us get paid for our labor more often than annually. However, this is not historically normal. When the industrial revolution began, farmers became wage earners. Here we are in a society that lives from paycheck to paycheck.
When I began Steemit, I somehow came across the notion that it would require at least one year before my efforts would be rewarded. I still believe this to be a good plan. Many posts reap very small rewards. I expected this truth when I began this effort.
Steemit does not offer residual income. The increased future rewards should be realized from followers and reputation. It seems to work that way for steemians who have been here longer than I.
I am also hoping for an increasing market price for Steem, but my hope is to increase my capacity to produce monthly income. The future is uncertain, but Steemit offers the capacity to earn crypto value. In the future I expect this capacity to branch into various areas of commerce. I hope to employ a cook, a maid, and a gardener using cryptocurrency in the future.
Time will tell. We will all know more in a year.
Here is today's beauty. How long does it take for a tree to grow?
