The content reward is nothing. I see the post that paid out was worth that much on the surface. The number below is what you received. Your half, broken down into HBD and HP. If you add it up together, it's half of $3.88. Ignore 'content reward'.

I put my HBD into savings. That's just me giving myself a 12% raise. You can also exchange it for HIVE then power the hive up into HP if you wanted. Be careful with the conversions. Converting and the internal market are two very different things. You can lose money converting if you don't time it right. The market would be, selling HBD and buying HIVE, like an exchange. Converting HIVE to HBD should only be done when HBD is showing it's worth 1.25 or more. I think PeakD actually describes it a bit better when someone attempts to do it. Be careful with conversions.

Or yes you can always ditch the HBD. It's pegged to a buck ish. It's your money. Do whatever you want.

You'll need to keep some HP in your account otherwise you can't transact, or vote, or comment, or anything. That's what gives you resource credits.

It takes 13 weeks to fully powerdown. Whatever amount you powerdown, divided by 13. One payment each week. But again, never fully powerdown. Leave some otherwise you screw yourself. But if those delegations still exist, you'll have resource credits. They put that there to help you though. Eventually you need to stand on your own feet, by either buying in, or earning.

Those Tribes are so damn confusing. So you have two tokens. Hive and Porn. When you vote, you're tipping Hive and Porn, provided you have hivepower and porn power (lol what a name). BUT, say it's a post about ducks, not in the porn tribe. You won't be giving the duck lover and porn tokens, only hive. If the content is in the porn tribe, you give both. Confused more? LOL

I voted for your recent post. You used 'creativecoin' tag. I own CCC tokens, and several others. So, when I voted, I gave you the standard HIVE, plus CCC tokens on top of that. Confused more?

Here we are talking. Tribe tags on my post are: VYB, Neoxian, Creativecoin and POB. So when I vote for your comments here, because of those tags, you'll receive the standard Hive stuff, vyb, neoxian, creativecoin, but you won't get POB, because I don't have any POB tokens staked or powered up. I don't have to visit each frontend for those tribes to give you these tokens. I can do it on Peakd. Or I can do it on one of those tribe frontends. Same effect. Some people setup multiple accounts to handle all this nonsense. I personally don't care enough to be bothered and just, push the button, whenever. I literally don't care about 'maximizing'.

I think someone maybe hooked you up with an airdrop. Welcome to Hive LOL. Tokens fall outta the sky here all the time. See my Hive engine wallet? I don't even know how I got most of those...

And yes, after seven days the post is dead. It can still receive votes but they won't pay. This system is designed for the way content is created these days. A steady stream of new stuff. People can still tip you though with old work. So it's not like it's dead dead. Just dead to votes.
