Congratulations for your article, i agree totally with the message you left in.
Steemit shouldn't be a way to get money only, i think its a nice way to learn, interact and contribute to the society. Of course money helps a lot to motivate that. But shouldn't be the target of everything. As curiosity did you know that your last name is from the Basque country (Spain)?, it comes from Etxeberria :D.
