The way I look at it is that I can use steemit to give back to the folks who I have followed for a very long time and support their work and effort by giving back to them. They worked hard to build up their following and are successful for a reason. I think there are many others who do the same.
What I also love about steemit is that I get to find folks who are posting great content and I can help support them as well. :)
