I saw one of his ads that say come to steemit and u can vote yourself up, that was about 2month ago. You hatters can all thank jerry for me being here. If it wasnt for investors steemit would not make it where it is now, their ico let their investors vote themself up or why else would anyone put money into steemit, an investor would rather be on facebook as many users already a big company over there. Since 2 month ago i have put in over 200k into steem , whats it worth now u ask? here is the pic.

Wow 200k that is nice, Who is hating on you?

lot of people.

That's a bummer, I think it is awesome that you invested 200k, I am only at a thousand so far. I just hate the fees. They are so high now that polo is down.

Try gemini it is cheaper there.

So 200k is now 136k? Missing the point somehow

Yes u got that right, over 200k, i think total all in is about 225k, and just lost half in 2month.

Ouch..I feel your pain. Ive lost big before myself :(

If you invested in steemit, upvoting yourself should be a right without question. Those who oppose don't understand how capitalism works

Love the site, very good content from around the world and back.

this platform will be bigger than reddit, we are social and use forums anyways so why not get paid in cryptocurrency that rises in value for it. full steem ahead!

Im on steem because of Jerry too, i think all that hate is not fair!

that jerry. lol

He's everywhere haha

oh yes steemit is very good i am new to steemit and it is a good website

I love steemit! I'm so glad I came across it!

You did it bro. Great!

Just don't panic ride it out it is gonna rise again next month, don't panic it is gonna drop more this month, but it will rise again. That is free market, rise and fall you only lose your ass when you panic.

so im not the only one who buy at ofer 2$

You must not have listened to anything recent from Jerry banfield. Because he doesn't upvote his own comments anymore, he made a big post about it actually. And how it's counterproductive to the success of steemit, and to his success on steemit..

If hf20 come out and they taken away self-voting you will see lot of guy like me power down, guarantee, we would go to facebook or reddit.

I pray that they do, so the people like you will leave.. it's not social media at all what your doing, this is a social media blockchain.. your staking with the requirement of you showing up to say yes, and Pat yourself on the back. And then log off.. you are in block chain for money specifically , I am here because I think blockchains can make the world a better place. Because Facebook and Reddit are centralized advertisement sites.. then once you go I hope you make millions really.. blockchains are awesome. I'm glad that you want to invest money in them really. Just a strong difference of opinion on what is best for each of our investments. I could have been upvoting myself 10 times a day for a couple months. But I wanted steemit to be worth more than a dollar someday.

Hey. You have been doing better man. I commend you. You only upvoted yourself once and it was a post. And I'm fine with that really! Your posts are even getting better. You're upvoting other people more often. Im going to remove some flags. I am fine with you taking some of your own votes, you deserve it. You did invest.. But it's also nice to go look at the introduce yourself page and spread some love to new users to give them a reason to invite their friends and so on, or just upvote the posts you think are best. With your voting power, you have the ability to put posts on the trending page.. which also means if you curate correctly you could make good money doing that too.. if nothing else you can kind of dictate what others see on the trending page, which is kind of cool. But with power comes responsibility yo!! Like I said I'm on steemit chat if you ever have any questions or just want to say yo. Best of luck making steemit work for you, and hopefully helping make it grow..

I got to wait for steem to come back up and power down and go, i cant stay here.
I can make my money grow faster somewhere else, the rules change when i was inside, it is my understanding that i can upvote myself, now that im in you guy say that i cant. If i know that i cant in the first place i would not be in here.
Lot of people too not just me.

Its not that you can't.. its that its better to give and be given. I unflagged you, you can still make lots of steem making a post once in a while and upvoting it and upvoting other users posts after 20 or 30 minutes.. you could make good curation rewards.. powering down only takes a couple weeks and will stop your ability to get rewards at all.. I respect your decision either way, but there are lots of ways to make money on steemit, and steemit could be worth a lot more someday.. So if your making 20$ of steem here and there right now, and hold it it will be worth lots more than that.. What other coins are you thinking about?

too many damn rules, bait and switch, should of let me know that before i join, with other coins i can pull out and put stop in , with steem im stuck on it way down, with other coins i pull out and come back in when it is down, now i have to sit here wait for it to come back up, sure most coins go back up sooner or later. Yes i saw ur unvote.

@dang007 I'm agreed with @drpuffnstuff Steemit has a huge profit potencial and the more you have the more you'll proft, with it, the magic on this is that you can make an "help others" a proftable busyness You had already have a great Idea, I mean I'm really glad you are here and I'm sure lot of people feel this way about you too. as our friend above said eith the ammont of money you have to invest you can multiply n times more with following good Ideas, I feel you are not happy with steemit because you are still learning about those "goddam rules" I'm telling you by my own experience, the more yo learn about it, the more it looks absurdly profit and amazing for every one. When I tried to chat with you before was to propose a guidance, in order to help you to make even more money, like I'm sure @drpuffnstuff would do for you too, if anytime you make yourself open to talk I'll be here for to talk anytime too!

Don't give up!
we're all in this together ^^

well man im sorry.. and its not 2 years you have to wait. you will have all your money out in a couple months or something like that.. what do you mean too many damn rules? You can make a good amount of money here, steem is a good crypto. its just a social media crypto.. If I were you and I had all that money.. I would throw it in antcoin if I weren't going to keep it here, since its a pos and you would have a lot, you would make a decent amount of ant every day.... If you keep it here you could go try to team up with jerry banfield and his curation project.. He might be glad to have you and your contribution, maybe there would be a way you could help out someone you like and make money.. As I said im on steemit chat if you ever feel like talking, just search my name and send me a message if you ever have questions or anything yo

this website is changing lives, this well curve stomp fb! let's keep it up steemers!

Jerry Banfield is the reason I am here as well @dang007
He is only of the leaders who brought loads of people here and I can't thank him enough of all the opportunities he has single handily given to me.
Steem On!

take all out , and put all in on something much better then Steemit, try to make some real money, Steemit is not for this :)

ok

Good to see people taking chances with Steemit. I just joined a day ago and still evaluating steemit as an investor. Hope to pull the trigger like you did in the near future.

Heh, I'd love to catch this while the price plummets!
