How I Got my family infected with Steemit - Story behind

reer.jpg

Since a day one I am enthusiastic about Steemit. I joined pretty early on July 2016. I was the first in my sounding who entered in crypto world.
In the beginning I was all strange to them.
Usually I spend a lot of time on the computer because of my job and that part was nothing strange to them, but I started to talk about all the time about Steemit, start to meet people from Steemit and getting oppressed (you know that feeling right :) ?)
For almost two years I was building my reputation, powered up and newer cash out any money from the platform. I was proudly showing them my Steemit wallet but for them this was just a game and numbers on the screen.
They all are High educated people with degrees in human sciences and I was sure that they have something to say and share to the community. But they were skeptical and not convinced that Steemit is right place fore them. Even all of them are on some kind social network and no matter how positive about Steemit I was talking there remain skeptical.

big turn - money makes the world go round

I decided to pull out some FIAT currency out of Steemit and prove them that Steemit is not only game, and if you work hard you can make money here. I am sure that this was a breaking point because after that they started to listen more carefully what I was saying to them :) and got their attention.
