You wanna be rich? Isn’t it?
C’mon, just admit it…
You think by posting and upvoting friends here on steemit, you’re gonne make lots of money…
Am I right…?
Yes?
Well, you know what…

Dream on!
If you really want to be rich, and I mean, really really rich… you better do like I did…
You get up early… (I know, that hurts…)
And you go to the market…
Once you’re there, you steal a lot of empty crates… c’mon, c’mon, don’t be shy, just do it. You want plenty of money… no… yes… than just do it.

And here it comes… once at home, you rearrange your empty crates just like on the picture…
Now invent a story about your new construction (yep, that’s your part, I won’t do that job for you…)
Make it a long story… with a lot of difficult words… maybe even a bit supernatural… you could tell you heard voices, that always works…
And then…
Then…
Change your name to something fancy and sell that sh*t to a museum!

What? You don’t believe me?
Well, where do you think I took that shot above? Yep, indeed, in a museum of contemporary ART…
Really, you don’t wanna know how much I charged for it… it’s just insane 😊

Sounds good..... well except that getting up early thing. Is that a requirement ??
Seems like night time would be a better time to pinch the crates. O.o
I think I may be a little !DERANGED but I'm going to have to try this.
Just need to learn some 5 syllable words and think up a pretentious name and I'm set. Well except for that morning thing..... are you sure about that, could be a deal breaker.

Yeah, that morning thing is really killing!
One has to be very !DERANGED to become rich 😉

Well, getting up early would not be a problem - wake me at three and I get up ;) but I would have a problem to have such an idea ... and then even sell it. I might even have such ideas sometimes, and sometimes even worse when I have too many !BEER but I would never think of making money out of such !DERANGED 💩 ... but maybe the artist is well known and $trdo 😉

It's indeed a fact that lots of !BEER makes you very creative! That's why I never stop drinking 😂
Anyway... I see that you used the night to pile up !DERANGED ... you're ready to go 😁

I didn't have any time today - sometimes I have to do real work ;)
Yes, you are right, and I think, yesterday none of the tokens, apart from the trendo worked. So I try it again:

Yeah, I'm getting rich in Steem, poor in €.

Really, you don’t wanna know how much I charged for it… it’s just insane

I think it's best you keep that a secret. Watch out for the IRS.

That's a very good advice, thanks! Have a !BEER for that. I think you have to be a very !DERANGED person to share all your good ideas like you do... 😉
BTW: how are the 'troubles' going? Things are calming down?

From my side, it's all calm. The attackers have been throwing a few more flags at me, though. This platform is like that: one mistake and they'll crucify you for years to come, as if you're Judas.

Let's see what happens. Serious accusations and threats have been made against me... and without evidence to prove it.

Thanks for the !BEER and the !DERANGED, too. (I can't send that last one, yet.)

You got it? I don't see the comment...
Here, have another !DERANGED to make sure...
I do have the impression there are some problems with steemit right now... very difficult to comment...

Yes, it arrived. Thanks!

One should not talk loudly about the problems in Steem. It's all love and flowers, even if you don't think so. 😁

If you ask me, these shenanigans won't allow Steem to ever be anything but a tiny niche... but you know what? Maybe it's better that way. Once Facebook became Mainstream, I started hating it and eventually abandoned it altogether.

Is it too obvious?
hahaha
Yes, I want lots and lots of money
Only thing, I think the market fellas are on to the creative likes of you
They won't let me take those crates ;p

Maybe you should offer them a !BEER first 😉



Hey @kaerpediem, here is a little bit of BEER for you. Enjoy it!

Yeah… I've known artists who created that kind of thing. In one starving artists group from back in the day (when I was in art school), we had this one guy whose paintings sold for top dollar no matter what the medium, content, or size. We joked he could slap anything on the wall with his signature and someone would buy it. He decided to put it the test. He stretched a 6 x 4.5 foot canvas, cobbled together a wood box that was about a foot tall from 1x4s with a door made of plywood, slapped another little block of wood on it for a handled, attached it in an offset position on the canvas, and painted the whole thing white. He put a price tag of $5K on it – remember, this was a student starving artists exhibit in the early 1980s. No one else's work in the exhibit was more than $1500 (and that was sculpture).

Yes. Someone actually bought it.

[sigh]

Well, that guy must have be seriously !DERANGED 😁

Maybe so… but he got paid! Five grand in the early 1980s was a lot of money for $10 worth of supplies!
💰💰💰

Thanks for the deranged token

I remember talking to one of my art teachers about this and it seems there's always someone like this who can sell anything. He said often they don't keep making art. That they go into other fields and make tons of money... it was never about the art in many examples.The thing that's disappointing to me is how many people attack and dismiss all art they don't like or understand as being a scam. I really shouldn't comment about it because it's too big a topic for me to put into words.

Yeah, we all know someone who's more into making money than creating Art for its own sake. There are also buyers who are only investing in artworks for the possible future returns. I've seen people buy something they would never hang in their homes because they thought they could turn a profit off of it.

But, that guy was in it for the Art. He was thoroughly disgusted by the whole episode. He took the money… I mean, he was still a starving art student. But, he had bet money that canvas wouldn't sell.

The art world is a huge business... oh man i don't even know where to with this. :)

The business of the art world has, in my estimation, little to do with the deep need in artists to create Art, with a capital "A."

Whew... yes, that deep need.

If i don't do it i go totally crazy. Depression, anxiety, whatever the latest popular diagnosis is. The making money doesn't even calculate in. And then i end up with a life of poverty and isolation thinking there's something wrong with me. This is too much info... i did have hopes of even a small income from steemit. I unwisely bought steem when it was over $5 dollars. I might break even in 2 or 3 years. It's just relentless the time effort and cost to make art and even photography. Getting little to nothing in return and getting judged by people at the same time. I suppose the safety valve is just saying something "i'm not an artist i'm just having fun and meeting people... Nothing wrong there :)

Hi, I think just like you here at the Guggenheim Museum, I am angry to see the exhibitions, I feel silly and poor hehe
They do know
Happy day

Well, I'm not angry but... when I want to have a good laugh, I always go to that museum...
Unbelievable how many !DERANGED curators there are 😁

Great post ... the end was a surprise :) great and witty observation

The biggest surprise for me was to actually see that piece of "art" in a museum 😂
We're living in a !DERANGED world...
