I got steem and forgot about it for a while, life happened, until 8 months later. Like very recently, when I came across a bookmark on my phone. Yippee, I have something. I looked and wow, Value went up, big-time. But for all newbies and crypto in general, you should never perceive this as a get rich quick scheme, and sure some people do get lucky. Some. Luck happens when preparation meets opportunity. That kind of luck takes a little prep work. Good luck.
