Welcome to the 31st episode of the Steem Sister Show!
Your hosts are @coruscate and @maryjaney. We are two sisters using the Steem blockchain to chat about our life experiences and provide a little entertainment value to the Steemit Community.
Topic of this Episode – Buying vs. Renting a Home
Oooh this ended up being such a fun episode! We definitely have a few different viewpoints when it comes to buying a home vs. renting - and so I think it made for some interesting discussion. Not to mention, you guys submitted such great questions for this episode!
Here are the questions covered in this episode:
Mary just went through the process of buying her first home – what was the most frustrating part?
Are you throwing money away by renting instead of putting it towards a mortgage?
What are the pros and cons of buying vs. renting
Audience question from @scottshots Have you ever had a bad neighbor while renting an apartment that made you want to buy a house and not want to have neighbors that close?
Audience question from @aussieninja – What are your “must have’s” in buying a property?
15 or 30 year mortgage? Which is better?
What is the Steem Sister Show All About?
We aim to bring more “non-crypto” related content to the Steem Blockchain. Although there is nothing wrong with this kind of content (@corsucate even posts on crypto related material sometimes) – we want to help create a better onboarding experience for new users. We talk a lot about attracting new users to the platform – but if the trending page is filled with crypto posts and flagging wars, they are likely to lose interest quickly.
We hope that by creating content that is more similar to what they are used to seeing on other social media sites – they will feel more excited about being here and creating content of their own!
How Does It Work?
We pick a different topic every episode, and then throw totally random questions about that topic in a hat and go back and forth. We always have a mix of our own questions and some audience questions. Our rule is that we cannot tell each other our answers before filming! So you guys are getting our raw, unfiltered reactions here.
Every episode we announce the next week’s topic so people can submit questions.
Want to win some SBD??
If we chose to answer your question in the next show… we will send you 2 SBD! Now that’s some easy money.
Next Week’s Topic : Being the Boss - What It's Like to Manage People
This is definitely going to be an interesting episode! I'm a bit more of a management veteran and have managed teams of people at different organizations - both large and small. Mary on the other hand is a newb in the world of managing people - but is quickly realizing some of the challenges and tricky dynamics.
If you would like the possibility of winning 2 SBD - please submit your questions! Anything on the topic of Managing People is fair game.Listener questions always end up being the best ones - so thank you in advance to everyone who submits one!
That’s a Wrap!
We hope you all enjoyed this episode! I know we asked you guys for your opinion quite a bit in this episode - so we can't wait to hear your thoughts!
