I was introduced to Steemit by a friend, @imbigdee, who is an active member of this platform. Although, I have heard so many good things about steemit and how it has changed the lives of many hopeless people, but I have always nurtured the feeling that steemit of is nothing but a waste of time and energy, hence, my disinterest.
I was skeptical about registering due to the disturbing stories associated with ponzi scheme, forex trading, cryptocurrency devaluation and all that (I am very pessimistic in nature and I'm good at talking risk) . All these contributed to my disinterest in becoming a member even though my inquisitiveness about the platform never ceased.
From my little findings, I got to know that Steemit does not only offer the chance to earn both steem and steem back Dollar (SBD), but gives members the chance to convert the steem and SBD earned to other cryptocurrencies of their choice. However, you could convert your steem or SBD to bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin, siacoin and many others.
I have wasted many years of my life on social media writing and publishing my works on various platforms that earned me little or no nothing. Even the ones that offer rewards give meagre which is nothing to wrote home about.
At a point, I told myself, "if people could be rewarded for a mere "upvote", then it means steemit should be the right place to be.
This got me excited and boosted my interest in registering, and today, I am a fully fledged member and I hope my testimony here will be all positive.
Sorry I forgot to introduce myself to you before writing my epistle.
I am Iluku Babatunde Joseph. I hail from Ekiti State. I graduated from Ekiti university where I obtained a degree in Agricultural science. I am an energetic and spirit-filled young man with a prospect. I am very emotional, industrious, kind and humble and can go any lengthy to make other people happy. Even though I can be a bit gentle, I don't like to be taken for granted.
I grew up among adults and growing up in their midst has broadened my horizon in all walks of life. I think faster than my age and was way matured than my colleges while growing up. My quest for knowledge always makes me view things differently and distinct.
When I was at a tender age, I was my teacher's favourite and they encouraged me so well in my academics. I'm a more of a good listener than a talker. I learn very fast and I'm endowed with a wide range of life experiences.
I have a soft spot poultry farming, animal nutritionist, agricultural consultancy and landscape designing. I find it very productive and I surely know I'm going to succeed if I follow that career path.
I am willing to contribute a lot to this platform and I'm eager to learn more from intelligent minds. I hope I enjoy my membership on Steemit

Hi Iluku,
Welcome to this great platform.
No,as you have figured out by now, it's not a ponzi scheme, as you do not need to bring any money in to get started...
Do not focus on earning money here, especially if you are a new comer. That won't work. Steemit is first a platform where knoweldge is exchanged and groups of interest form. The magic is that the money comes by itself when you write great stuff consistently.
Agronomy is quite a popular topic here, as most (serious) members are alternative thinkers. Sustainable solutions are saught for here, like in real research community.
My advise to you: write a scientific post about a specific agricultural topic (a topic where you are kowldgeable at), make aerated paragraphs, include every 3-4 paragraphs illustrations and pictures while respecting coppyright, (you can use pixabay.com for pictures you can use for free), cite your sources, and try to organise your article as a story. Then post it on Steemit using the #steemstem tag. Also, engage with the comments.
In might not work for the first posts, but keep at it, and if your content is good, things will turn out sweet.
Good luck!
