[Christening In The Philippines: What To Do & How To Budget](https://steemit.com/finance/@emdesan/christening-in-the-philippines-what-to-do-and-how-to-budget-72e483214e82d)
>My youngest son recently had his Christening last Jan. 20, 2019 (Sunday). Here in the Philippines, the celebration of the Baptism sacrament is absolutely necessary. It is also a joyful event where a welcoming party is thrown for the child. For first time parents, arranging the Baptism is stressful if you don't know what to do. So, I would like to share with you a guide on how to arrange such a momentous event and, of course, budgeting for it 

If you think about it, a christening can be quite costly. @emdesan gives some advice on how to budget for this life moment. Can you guess how much was spent before you read the post? I think you may be surprised!

>Some time ago I saw a great movie called "The Origin", spoke of something very strange, called "shared dreams", something quite illogical by the way, but some of those scenes caused me a lot of curiosity, there were a lot of people sleeping, connected to each other , dreaming and one of the actors says that they do not go to sleep, they go to wake them up, that the dream has become their reality. 

_What if?_ I mean, seriously! What if? Could @fiveelements5 be onto something here? Maybe an alternative life? Like the “Matrix?” Stranger things have happen, _right?_

>Masha Gagarina likes to read books on interplanetary journeys. This time she chose a great book by Stanisław Lem "Invincible". Her cat can not read, but he eagerly relaxes with her while she reads. Her voice puts the cat in a general bliss - in this way they can spend long days traveling 

_What a creative mind!_  See how @arrr made this comic image in this post; where a video is shared as well as the step-by-step process. Don't you wish you had such a talent!

So much goes into creating an oil painting; and @jacinta.sevilla shares their step-by-step process in this post. Plus there are videos showing how this was created at every stage. _Beautiful!!_

## Bigger better monthly subs!

We know not everyone can delegate or upvote for larger upvotes. Thus sending in steem allowed for a larger upvote for the month. 

It used to be only two levels. 




SUB1 =  0.8 Steem for an upvote from 750 SP
SUB2 =  1.6 Steem for an upvote from 1500 SP 

We decided to add three more levels to this, with level 5 adding a little bonus in there!

SUB3 =  2.4 Steem for an upvote from 2250 SP
SUB4 =  3.2 Steem for an upvote from 3000 SP
SUB5 = 4 Steem for an upvote from 4000 SP (250SP Bonus!)


So how does that work? 

Let's say you send 3.2 Steem with the memo `sub Feb` then you will get an upvote from @qurator similar to a 3000 SP account.

## Introducing Referral Bonuses! 

<br>

Dear Qurites,

We know times are tough now and we all have to push a little bit harder. We came up with two programs that will help you earn some extra upvotes and visibility from Qurator, and will also help Qurator to reach more Steemians/your friends that need some extra help. 
<br>
## <center>**Write a post about Qurator.**</center>

<br>


Our long time members know how it all works. You have been with us through thick and thin. 

Share your experience with your friends and followers. We would love to know how our members see Qurator and what they like (or don't) the most about the project. 
Feel free to write in your own native language. We are open to all languages and have already translated our main Qurator post to several languages.
Well written posts will receive some extra upvote love from Qurator and a resteem. :) Feel free to drop your post link in our Daily Qurator comment section, so we don't miss it. 
<br>
## <center>**Invite a friend.**</center>

<br>


Do you know someone who is starting out? Or maybe someone who is posting great posts for a while but still need more exposure? Refer Qurator to your friend and after they get approved and become a member you will also receive a bonus 1SBD upvote on your most recent posts.

There are two ways to do it and this is how it works:

||<center>Option 1 - Referrals</center> |<center>Option2 - Sponsorship</center>|
|-|-|-|
|1|You refer a friend to Qurator| You sponsor a membership to your friend |
|2|Your friend sends registration fee to Qurator and mentions your name in the memo: `referred by @your_steemit_username`|You send registration fee to @qurator with your the person's name in memo: `@your_friends_username`|
|3|Our team reviews the account|Our team reviews the account|
|4|Your friend is approved - you receive a 1SBD upvote|Your friend is approved - you receive 1SBD upvote|



Keep in mind that all registration rules still apply and all account will be reviewed by our team. You can read about content requirements in [THIS](https://steemit.com/qurator/@qurator/qurator-3-0-update-post-guidelines-or-registration-details-or-tier-changes) post. 





*Note: Both programs are open to everyone, not only Qurator members.*

# Steemauto Curation Trail

<br>

|  |  |
| -- | -- |
|https://steemitstageimages.com/DQmRviZWBhhxeNa6TSQKpSitHj3XHmGC24WUxn9uUVTWCG6/steemauto.png| The new curation trail is active and running! If you would like to support your fellow Qurites or just earn some extra curation feel free to join our curation trail that is active on Steemauto. <br>[Steemauto guide and registration info](https://steemit.com/guide/@scrooger/steemauto-full-guide-and-how-to-register)|

We suggest not following the trail with 100%, steemauto has 2 ways of following a trail, static or scaled. We suggest using **SCALED** instead of static since static votes can add up quickly and drain VP very fast. We suggest using scaled and then maybe around 25%.

**Steemauto** can show us who is currently on the trail and at what percentage. Looking forward to see more Qurites joining the trail in the near future! We also reward the team players and there might be a nice surprise for a lucky trailer. =P
