There is a calculator on http://steem.supply/rewards but it doesn't take into account how the change in STEEM price changes the value of upvotes.
yesterday I watched this video (https://steemit.com/abuse/@lyndsaybowes/steem-rant-1-myths-about-flagging-and-the-reward-pool) which I still need to re-watch/do more research on but it changed the way I thought about the reward pool. Now I don't know if I understand it correctly.
I originally thought the reward pool was roughly ~700k STEEM per week that is divided by the total posts values.
It will be crazy if I can get a job that pays a normal salary after doing this program for about 6 months.
I think you can. 💯
From what I understand the burn posts are somehow an aim to reduce the price of SBD. not really sure on that one though.
