A 30000 Steemit Post

Yeah, believe or not, a user got over 30,000 Dollar in steemit for one post.
This did not happen yesterday thought.

If you are fairly new to steem just like me, you might have been wow by the earning of Hive account@sweetsssj Making couple thousands every post but the post I'm referring to is in a league of its own.

Last year in the really early days of steemit, a user called Hive account@guerrint posted:

THE FIRST STEEMIT MAKEUP TUTORIAL- bringing Youtubers to Steemit!! Tara is back!
https://steemit.com/beauty/@guerrint/the-first-steemit-makeup-turtorial-bringing-youtubers-to-steemit

The post made an astounding $31,543.06

If this does not make you wish you found steemit earlier I don't know what will.

She reached this amount with 709 upvotes and I guess back then whales will now water down the upvotes to 1% so she made bank. For what I could determine, she earned around 50 K within a couple weeks with some additional posts.

However, apparently for Hive account@guerrint, the money was enough and she has been taking her earning out steemit ever since.

It's possible that Hive account@guerrint still around with another name, I just think that if I have gained that much money in a week I would fall in love with steem long term and I would not have left. Still, this post is just an example of what steemit can be and hopefully someday gets back to.

I found this post thanks to Hive account@stellabelle while reading one of her old post she talks about this. If you are not following her you should she is great.
