Ahhh yes, summer of 2017. It was the worst of times, it was the best of times. MediKatie and I were homeless when I signed up here 4 years ago, and didn't have a place to live until November. I had heard (about Steem) many times from other vloggers, and used a laptop and borrowed internet connection to sign up. I didn't want to wait until we were in a better situation, because I knew the sooner you start, the better your chances of "making it" here. Well after 4 years, I still have not made it here! I should never have touched this place with a ten foot pole. It's one of my only regrets in life. If I could do it all again, I would never ever sign up for this blockchain. No offense to anyone here, but it has been one of the worst decisions I ever made.
