Yeah well to be honest i have been scammed all my life lost thousands of dollars when i was 18 and that was all i had, all i wanted was to provide a life for my mom pay her debt and hopefully give my little brother a nice future without worries, don't wanna be sentimental but i have lots of back problems so i work now atm half time 27 hours a week else i wouldn't be able to hold on you know.
And during that time i heard about crypto currencies and i regretted not buying Bitcoin in 2012 so arround 2015 i decided to involve myself and invest in crypto currencies and now each month i place 10% of my monthly salary in crypto currencies. I actually wanted to invest in ETH and BTC till i had 1 Coin of each but then i heard about steemit and now im basicly involving and investing myself in Steemit since it seems like a wonderful oppertunity and maybe the dream of helping my mom can be reality someday who knows :)
I have learned though to have creativity you need family and my little brother and my mom are motivating me so much they are the true MVP's
I started on here in Nov. and have made over $12,000 counting all I've given away. If you're honest and hardworking, the community will embrace you. That's what I love- it's a community in the true sense of the word. You just have to find the right people and the beggars make that difficult.

Yeah well i once got $10k from a chinese woman because at that time i had a youtube channel, and i made art for my subs and asked little to nothing in return for it and basicly this one day this chinese woman approaches me and says she will send me 10k through post mail in dollar.
I thought it was a outright scam or joke, but she indeed did that and thanks to this wonderful woman i was able to buy my first car and apply for a job that required a car so thanks to this woman im here right now.
And i know exactly what you mean with that people recognise true potential and hardworkers :) But this community is one of the best i have seen in a long time though.

WOW! A long time ago, I wrote on Triond.com... I was contacted by a Nigerian princess that wanted to hide her millions in my bank account (If I sent her $10,000 as a token of my good will)
