So yesterday, I was called out by Onealfa about me 100% Self Voting. I 100% Self Vote with the goal of giving the money away. This was always the goal, even before Leofinance, Hive or Steem existed. It's why I got into investing, to take care of those around me, financially. Leofinance is helping to make that a reality for me and made me realize, I could impact lives near and far. I'm blessed to live the life I do and the least thing I can do at this point in my life is to help others financially. COVID-19 has only widened the wealth gap...I see it everyday. There are people struggling over all the world that need help. Taskmaster says it best, we are witnessing the greatest wealth transfer in our lives. The question is what are you going to do with that money or what are you going to do with that money now?
So, I agree with Onealfa, 100% Self Voting my votes is crazy, self-centered, greedy perhaps. Onealfa only did what he did to protect the community, which I totally respect, so we are on the same page in that regard. But don't judge a person, until you know the WHY. Some people Self Vote because that's a feature people are choosing to use on the platform. Some people Self Vote because they get no love from the Community. Some people self vote because they need the income. Some people self vote because they want to get paid for their time and effort. Some people Self Vote because they are using Leofinance as a tool to help others.
When I told my wife how I was giving money away months ago, she got upset and said we would use that money. And she is absolutely right, we could use that money as we don't live a posh lifestyle. But I told her, I do what I do because a $1 goes so much further and impacts people so much more outside the US.
So now everyone knows the WHY...it's all part of the mission...good, bad or indifferent.
