Welcome to the 95<sup>th</sup> weekly installment of my series on Steem income and growth!
Income on this blockchain is generated by "investment" (the more currency you have, the more you earn) and by "work" (earning currency by contributing content that adds value). I'm working to earn STEEM by creating (and curating) valuable unique content.

It was a fairly good week on the strength of our regular posts, support from our friends and followers, and pinching our pennies!
We've been spreading out onto other decentralized platforms lately, with LBRY being this week's favourite. It's a bit like YouTube except everything is calculated on a blockchain with cryptos (LBC) tracking all costs (fees, tips, support, etc). <a href="https://api.lbry.com/user/refer?r=Fy6CHh2s1GHkreBnLzs4jnfAi3y9rBFQ">Highly recommended!</a> Free to signup and use, just an email address required, works on PC or mobile.
Despite picking up a couple trolls that downvote many of my posts (and comments), my reputation is creeping up, and I'm currently the #1877th most reputable Steemian.
<h5>Steem is still my base in terms of blogging, but other feeds and upload options are drawing my attention lately. Luckily, each only takes a few minutes to do, once the content itself has been created! Duplicating it across platforms just makes sense in today's censorship-riddled environment. Along with using steemleo and weedcash token strategies for applicable posts, diversifying our online presence is how we're growing right now.</h5>
Note: The penny has been extinct in Canada since 2012. Cash transactions round to the nearest 5c. That's not a problem we have to deal with in the cryptocurrency world! Still, I miss the penny, especially the penny of long ago that was half an ounce of pure copper metal. You could buy a nice meal with 2 or 3 of them - what is now a rounding error.
