Yesterday I told you that my Casio Exilim, 14.1 MP Camera gives me kind of unusual trouble while I am trying to get few photography of Orchid plant. So, I decided to buy a Smart phone with a good camera quality. Actually I had a small budget and I need to find something within that budget. My day job is not giving me a decent income to spend money on a mobile phone. (I won't reveal too much about my personal things, but it's okay this is the ugly but the truth). I have a family (wife and a cute son) and I have my parents and a sister (
) in her last year at the medical college (University). Therefore, with my monthly wage, buying a smart phone is a myth. But STEEMIT (All of you) helped me to make it happen.
Without STEEMIT my life is not so smooth, but by using my monthly wage I tried to manage everything as much as I can.


Special thanks to
, your generous support towards me help me to buy this phone. Therefore, I named this phone as onceuponamobile.
"Hope the name that I gave to the phone is okay for you. Actually I brought this by using your few generous clicks."
Before I joined STEEMIT, I was surfing internet to make a good and potential income. Unfortunately I was trapped into HYIPs, RevShares, ITOs, ICOs, all are scammed my hard earnings. Not only my hard earnings once I got a loan to invest on a project and it also gone. I will talk about them in a different article.
Then I found STEEMIT. No doubts, this is entirely a life changing platform. I am glad I found this amazing platform and
is the person (One of my good friend) who brought me here.
When I joined with STEEMIT, actually I had no idea what is this? I had the same thought like this is another type of FaceBook, so it took me few days to months to figured out what's STEEMIT. Lots of people who joined this platform with myself left it. But I decided to try my best. I am not going to say I made a huge success, but this platform helps me to make my dreams true.


You all supported me to make this successful journey in STEEMIT platform. I wish you all will support me in future as well. Please don't think I forgot your support that you given to me. Your STEEMIT names are in my heart and when you need my hand, don't hesitate to contact me.

How STEEMIT helps me?
- Financial I was in a sinking ship. My monthly wage only enough to live a simple life, if someone went ill, everything was unbalanced. Moreover, 2 years from now my son needs to go to a school, I had to pay for it (I had to shift my living place and stupid government rules will not let him to go to a good school. As a father I can't darken his future). At this moment STEEMIT helps me. Now all my earnings are collecting to build his future and unfortunately my mom got kind of heart trouble. So, I also spend these earnings to pay her medical bills as well. Therefore, in financial terms STEEMIT helped me in a great way.
- I found good friends and a good community. I like to build friendships, and I am trying to be an honest friend, I won't cheat anyone for anything. Cheating is not in my dictionary. Therefore, I also earned you as a good friend of mined and you also earned an honest guy as a good friend of yours. When I was in troubles most of my good friends in STEEMIT came to help me and if they need my help, I never think twice to take their side. Therefore, STEEMIT helped me to earn good friends to my life. For me it's a bless.
- I could learn a lot of things from others experiences. Now I am learning about Blockchain technologies and photography as well. Without STEEMIT it's not even possible.
- After all I also earned FREEDOM through this amazing platform. Yes, I mean it, I am earning freedom. Financial freedom is the key factor that I am earning here. It all happens due to your help and support. Without you, I will not earn that freedom. Thank you all for your great support.
