I am sure that I will not be here anymore without this amazing tool that had gone a very basic need now for the people and for myself because it has been my lifeline ever since I was able to make money from the Internet.
I remember a friend who introduced me to a Facebook app where I would solve tasks and get paid 1 to 5 cents or more. It is a crowdsourcing app which I do not know now if it still existing. It was my first time to make money from the Internet although I didn't enjoyed it because of the time pressure needed to solve or work on every tasks which also are scant and few to appear.
It was also the time where I had applied for a debit card which I then linked to my PayPal account. Then after that I was also introduced into a website that lets you earn from every view, likes, and comment you get from your social blog.
It was a fun time and one of the most productive times of my life. I thought that it would never end but the company went bankrupt as policies change plus they got plagued with spammers that also leeched out some money but I really do not know what happened, the company just faded-away and went offline.
The money that I earned I bought with some BTC which I made myself to join of what I thought was a legitimate business but indeed are Ponzi schemes and I never looked back to those after. I also had lost some money from cloudmining sites where I didn't factor-in that the machines are easily get outdated because of the need for a more powerful hashing power.
Then I went on to discover crypto trading where I thought it was a good way to earn only to discover too that there is such a thing like a bear market. So I never did made a day trade again and just held what I have until now.
After that I learned about steem and tried it since I have an idea how to make a social blog. At that point I am really desperate to earn some money because of my worsening health condition plus I do not have any sources of finances anymore. I reached-out to the community and lots of people lend a hand and now I am here, I just enjoy the community and making friends and of course some money for my medical needs. All of these things I had done because of the beauty of the Internet and I think God for all of these.
