My advice to a 17 year old Filipino Steemit Newbie

The following is a reply to a hopeful, young Filipino lad's first post --

Welcome and Good Luck!

I believe the best ways for you to make money with Steemit, is to widen your goal to making money with crypto in general.

If you find someone with capital, you can help people invest in bitcoin, steem and other cryptocurrencies through localbitcoins.com, and take a fee that you split with the investor.

You can sell stores, restaurants, etc. on taking many cryptos, including Steem, with blockpay.com's free apps, and earn a recurring revenue stream.

You can hold steem/blockchain meetups and ask people you introduce to Steemit to give you a voluntary referral fee -- If they make 100 or more SBD's in their first 6 months, you get 10 percent, or whatever. In other words, you don't have to be a great blogger to do well in this new, #beyondbitcoin world.

I just realized I should post this reply as a separate post.

I'll split the SBD's of the first two payouts with Josh.

You're welcome. I need to follow my own advice.

I know it sounds ridiculous, but please consider uploading pictures too. It helps make the thread look better overall to people who are looking and is MORE LIKELY TO GIVE YOU UPVOTES by other people!

I upvoted both of these this time because of a softy heart but I hope you will consider helping me lead the way on the few simple requirements I ask in return for upvotes. :)

I upvoted your reply, even though it has no pictures, because I too am a softy. While my upvote might not seem like it's worth much, keep in mind it is one of the first million @brindleswan upvotes. As my reputation increases, the value of my past upvotes, to the receiver, will increase as a reputation enhancer! :)

Seriously, it will be nice to be able to send a few SBD's to Josh, so he can show a successful first post to his family, and keep the motivation. Thanks Fuzzmeister!
