Yeah I have noticed that Steemit tends to create the illusion, when you first join, that you will make a lot of money easily. But that just isn't the case.

I made my account sometime in February-March and I have been finding it really hard to post, so I am not surprised the user retention rate is so low. Why do you think people drop off the platform so quickly?

I don't really personally know any college students who have done this, but I don't know if it is the best idea. Thoughts?

I would say 210!

Wow! Very nice and detailed post. Why did you decide to downsize and live in a tiny house?

Just posted about FIRST! Glad to see another volunteer on here :)

Just posted about this and I am glad I found some other FIRST people on this site!

Looks good! What was the dessert?

How was it compared to US airline food?

Yeah I thought it was very important that there was no barrier of entry and that steemit paid for you to start using the site instead of forcing its users to pay to make an account.

Thanks for the reply! I definitely agree with the steem power, I'm going to need to post a lot more and comment a lot more before I'll be making any sort of real amount of money.

Thanks for the comment! I did not think about the reward aspect of people using this site over others as to get something instead of wasting their time, I think that is a very interesting insight.

Does this tradition have anything to do with Karnival or the start of lent? It seems really similar to the throwing of beads during Mardi Gras parades.

You eat with your eyes first!

Welcome to steemit! I'm excited to learn more about your culture :)

Hey Joey! Thanks for reading!

Yep! Actually just finished a pretty big AI project in it a few months ago.

Thanks for the video suggestions! Your posts seem cool.
