It's happened again!
Reddit has picked one damn lucky person to be the receiver of free money! This time it's an 18-year-old college girl who writes:
Hi everyone! I’m still in a state of complete disbelief that this is even happening right now. I never ever expected to win this! I woke up to a bunch of Reddit notifications and just thought.. “there’s no way I could’ve won, there’s no way”
I don’t think I can express in words just how thankful I am to all the mods and everyone who has helped put this contest together! Thank you to everyone who donates to me. Here’s a little bit about me:
I’m an 18 year old girl currently in college. I haven’t been active on Reddit for a long time and a lot of that was just spent lurking. Mostly because I’ve never been a particularly extroverted person (even on social media lol). As I’m sure a lot of you know, college costs a lot of money. Even living at home and with student loans and scholarships it is still going to be a lot. So pretty much any money that gets donated to me will be going towards trying to minimize the amount of debt I’ll have in the future! (Okay and maybe a tiny bit on video games.. the last of us part 2 (probably my most favorite game of all time) is coming out next year and new merchandise is coming out in a few days that I don’t know how I could’ve afforded a couple days ago is now possible).
Anyway thank you again to everyone involved! I can’t even describe how much this means to me!
What is /r/MillionaireMakers?
MillionaireMakers is a subreddit that is dedicated to the Showerthought (also from Reddit):
If a million of us picked a certain redditor and all donated just $1, we would have the power to make someone a millionaire
Sweet! How do I enter?
Every month there is an entry thread created on the subreddit: /r/MillionaireMakers
The title of the thread will be something along the lines of this: Millionaire Makers - A Night to Remember (Comment to Enter!) [Drawing Thread #34] << Actual Entry Thread
Simply make a comment on that thread and you're in the running!
There are however some important rules:
Only ONE top level comment per person (replies and subsequent-level comments aren't included), but feel free to reply to other comments. Making duplicate top level comments may result in exclusion from entering. Go to /u/me to ensure you don't accidentally double comment.
If, by any chance, you do double comment, delete any extra duplicates ASAP, ideally before the thread is locked in 24 hours, as any winning draws found to violate this will not be eligible to win, and will be banned from the subreddit.
Your Reddit account must be older than 30 days with some amount of activity. Throwaway accounts with very minimal activity will also not be eligible. This is to prevent multiple entries from the same person.
Do I Need to Donate to the Winner?
No-one can make you do anything.
But, we hope that in the spirit of the competition that you do come back and make a very small donation to the winner of the draw.
We are not making assumptions but $1 usually does not break the bank for most people and even if it does, you could take this opportunity to empty you Bitcoin wallet of the 0.00001254 BTC that has been sitting there since the last panic-sell. You could even use the old exchange-rate excuse: "Sent you 1 VEF. Should be in your account soon."
However much you decide to donate, the communities of the internet will be eternally grateful for your contribution to the betterment of humanity (or at least one human).
Oh, that reminds me! Don't forget to head over and donate to the latest winner:
This is so amazing - thank you! [Winner’s Thread #34]
Why are you posting on Steem?
I'm glad you asked, as part of our efforts to get as many donations to our winner as possible, we will create a blog post, much like this one, for every winner.
All of the payouts from this post will go to the winner. Additionally, any donations sent directly to the @millmakers account will also go to the winner.
Here are some handy links:
1 STEEM || 2 STEEM || 5 STEEM || 10 STEEM
1 SBD || 2 SBD || 5 SBD || 10 SBD
For those wondering about the Steem Power. We will not be Powering Down but simply compensating the winner with the appropriate exchange of STEEM.
This post was created using Steem's greatest new UI SteemPeak
