Hello. I remember when I was fired from my best job in 2005 thanks to a series of expropriations that were carried out in the country and the massive dismissal of many employees for going against the national government of Venezuela, I was in that large group of unemployed.
In search of the need to work my profession I had to throw it away and begin to dedicate myself to being a multifunctional worker in my time of unemployment I was a taxi driver, waiter, bricklayer, cook in a restaurant, home among other jobs that I do not remember in this precise moment.
I perfectly remember a friend who bought a car. I was intrigued since my friend didn't work and asked me how he did to buy the car without working. Many crazy ideas crossed my mind. The first thing I thought was that he was stealing. Out of so much curiosity I approached him and asked him where he had gotten the money to buy the car.
Answer from my friend:
I bought it thanks to my work online, I asked him what he worked for and he was completely silent, I never knew what he worked for.
When I got home I immediately turned on my computer and put in a google search engine how to make money online, the first thing that appears to me is "Earn money with PTCs" if you don't know, PTCs were a way to make money by watching advertising. My first PTC was called "Neobux" I tried my luck there but I was quickly disappointed as I only earned 0.001 cents for viewing an advertisement.
I spent a long time working with the PTCs until Bitcoin came out and the Faucets that gave away 1,000 to 5,000 satoshi for each advertisement we saw began to appear. I remember that it lasted more than 4 months seeing propaganda since the minimum withdrawal at that time was 5 BTC, I managed to reach 3 Bitcoin in reward until I threw in the towel and gave up.
When Bitcoin skyrocketed, I tried to open my faucet again but it had already been blocked. After that moment I moved away from the world of cryptocurrencies until in 2016 I met steemit if I remember correctly I created an account but I immediately lost it because I did not save my password.
Losing my password and not knowing how steemit works, I moved away until I entered again in 2018 and to date I am still here, I have had my long periods of absence but I am always aware of the platform and its updates.
Currently I attest that if you can live on cryptocurrencies as long as we put them to good use, staking is a good way to have your money without the risk of losing it and earning interest for it. In steemit it would be the steempower to leverage our steem to earn a reward for healing.
