Anytime money is involved, it's easy to become distracted by it but I'd like to invite everyone here to forget about the payouts for a minute and think of an even better value all around us in this early stage. I'm referring to the networking opportunities. I've already made some great new friends and professional contacts here. Especially now, in these early beta days, Steemit has a very high concentration of highly talented and knowledgeable people on board. Risk takers, innovators, pioneers...  I would recommend to anyone here at this time to make the most of it by mingling and getting to know your peers before this thing takes off and the masses come flooding in.
