How to create your own secondary STEEM account

If you don't know already, I am a big fan of concise guides that contain all necessary information, from step one, of how to achieve some particular result. In this case, I am referring to creating your own secondary STEEM account.

Why would I want to create a second account?

Well, that is entirely up to you. Some people have accounts for individual projects, companies, services, or for keeping content split up. The world is your oyster.

What do I need?

A STEEM account
6 STEEM Power OR about ~62004.878165 VESTS (at time of writing)
STEEM cli_wallet

Compile the cli_wallet

Visit this link if you need
Note: The same compile instructions will likely work fine on OSX if you substitute brew for apt-get

Launch the cli_wallet and set password (without Steemd running)

cli_wallet -s wss://steemd.steemit.com
set_password SOMESUPERSECRETPASSWORDYOUWILLREMEMBER
unlock SOMESUPERSECRETPASSWORDYOUWILLREMEMBER

Import your active private key

import_key 5KACTIVEPRIVATEKEY

Create second account (choose one: numbers after decimal matter)

Using delegated STEEM Power:
- create_account_delegated "youraccount" "0.200 STEEM" "62004.878165 VESTS" "yournewaccount" "" true
  - note: I usually try with ~100 VESTS first and read the error response to know what is required.
Using transferred STEEM Power:
- create_account_delegated "youraccount" "6.000 STEEM" "0.000000 VESTS" "yournewaccount" "" true

Retrieve the private keys of the second account and save them

Visit https://steemd.com/@yournewaccount and scroll down until you see the following section
Copy one of the public keys
In the cli_wallet: get_private_key STMYOURPUBLICKEYHERE
Copy the private key and save it in a secure location
Do this for each key; owner, active, posting, memo

Notes:

If you get any errors, simply scroll up and read the error output. You should be able to figure out what happened. As long as the syntax of the command is correct.
Number format for STEEM and SBD: "0.000 STEEM"
Number format for VESTS: "0.000000 VESTS"
