1. Steemit lends you money if you sign up
That's right. Once you sign up, steemit will delegate between 65-145 Steem Power to your account which will be worth approximately between 100-200 US dollars based on the current market. You can't cash this money out, but you can use it to earn money by simply upvoting content without first depositing anything or making any money.
2. Steemit rewards you with cash for simply posting
You heard that right! Your posts here have the potential to make hundreds or even thousands of dollars! You can check the posts that are trending and see it for yourself. Create valuable content and earn lots of cash after users upvote your content. Each post will get paid after seven days of posting based on the votes/likes it gets.
3. Steemit rewards you with cash for simply commenting
Correct! Even your comments can earn you cash. Look at the posts that are trending again and check out how much cash some of the comments have made! Post good and valuable comment on other users' posts and you can earn dozens or even hundreds of dollars if the users like your comment!
4. Steemit rewards you with cash for simply upvoting
No I'm not kidding you. Even your likes can earn you cash here. The amount of cash you can earn from your likes depends on a number of factors including your account value and steem power but let's not get too technical here! Let's just leave it at the fact that even your likes can earn you cash!
5. Steemit is ad-free
No ads whatsoever! You may ask where the revenue comes from then? Good question! The revenue comes from the cryptocurrency that is behind steemit. There is a tab on the site for promoting content which is kind of like advertisements but you won't see them unless you click on the tab.

I think as a conservative estimate STEEM will reach $50 (or more) per STEEM.
Facebook's current market capitalisation is around $450 billion.
Let's just say STEEM captures 10% of that, that's $45 billion which is then distributed across a maximum STEEM supply of 251,208,702 (according to coinmarketcap.com) and that works out to $179 per STEEM.
BOOM BABY!

Really? Where's the friends list on Steemit? Oh right, there isn't one. There's followers. Because that's what blogs have.
Where's the private messaging feature so I can plan t hings with my friends? Oh right, nonexistent because it's a blogging platform.
Where's the events calendar so I can find things to do with my friends? Oh right, there isn't one.
Steemit is an excellent blogging platform.
It is not a replacement for Facebook. It just wasn't built to do what Facebook does.

Nope, with facebook you fill your feed with shit, as mine is filled with good content, It's really about how you choose to use the platform. I've made so much money on Facebook running ads for companies. You have to create the opportunities they don't just fall into your lap. Steemit is a blogging site hence followers and no friends list, or direct messaging, which yes there is dm but it's not easy.. Facebook will never take over Steemit, It can and is co-existing with Facebook. But these are two different entities and just because something makes sense in your head, doesn't mean it makes sense.

Facebooks primary value lies in holding your friends 'hostage' steemit is a great platform for sharing public content, that said it does not duplicate / compete (nor should it) with facebooks main use case sharing content and keeping of contacts of your friends. It's less likely that steemit will kill Facebook and much more likely that the two will diverge into separate usecases / segmented streams of content.

There are no built-in ads here other than the promote section. Advertisers can either cheat by buying Steem and powering up in order to vote for their own content or are going to have to negotiate with the members here who produce good and popular content to advertise for them. They can also use the promote tab here but as far as I know that tab is not very popular at the moment!

Serious question...
Since STEEM has virtually no Social Networking features right now, is it actually intended to be a Facebook competitor? And how would one explain this concept to a non-techie person in terms of the rewards available?

I guess my question was more along the lines of this platform seems to resemble Blogger or Wordpress more so than Facebook or Twitter... Which isn't a bad thing, necessarily! But long range, if it's called a social network, FB, Twitter or LinkedIn is what comes to mind moreso than a blogging site!
And earning, no, but getting that converted to USD would be the interesting conversation to have!

WOW... slow down tiger... I mean I hope Steem does overtake Facebook but Facebook has been honed for the masses, posing as a social network but in reality it is an cleverly designed piece of software designed to profile you. YOU are the currency in Facebook. Someone said something once to me - "If you get something for free... you are the product" - that is Facebook through and through... I would say this is lined up to take out Reddit.
