When i first heard about Steemit i thought what a legit af idea this is A social media type use of the blockchain where you can earn some $$ and post whatever you want. I was brought here, or rather found Steemit by watching @trevonjb on YouTube, though it seems a lot of people seem to think quite low of him these days and he hasn't been active here for a while.
I didn't really know what to expect when i started here, i figured ooo ill post about shit i like and see if i can make some cash money to invest into other cryptos. However after about a week or two i found myself quite addicted. I would wake up in the mornings and check it almost first thing, try and write a post everyday, check it as soon as i got home from work and spend a good few hours here everyday.
After 3 months i have found myself still enjoying it everyday, i do have some issues with Steemit but it's more to do with the shitposters and all the people trying to make money from nothing than anything else.
I felt very welcomes into the community especially by @teamaustralia and everyone involved there. as well as @minnowsupprt and PAL.
Everyone involved and a part of those groups has made me feel welcome and helped me stay motivated to keep posting and engaging with the community.
I've only invested around $200 into Steemit of my own money but in my 3 months i have managed to get to
700+ Sp

And I've loved every minute of it.

I don't have a massive amount of money in crypto atm, maybe somewhere between 3-5k but it has been the best investment opportunity of my time and probably the best investment opportunity we will ever have. Truly is changing the world a little bit everyday.
I want to thank everyone who has made my Steemit and crypto journey fun and worthwhile, there are too many individuals to name but most of the people in the MSP-PAL discord channel, y'all know who you are. Ranging from intelligent debate and conversation to stupidity and name calling i feel like you're all closer than most of my real friends these days.
I look forward to continuing my Steemit and crypto journey with all of you.
