you are not far from the truth @firepower.
as a student here in Nigeria,i have found it hard to convince my friends about steemit. reasons because most of here in Nigeria have fallen victims of punzi scheme: MMM, Gethelp etc.but i kept on telling them this is different because you are not required to pay money nor bring anybody to earn but as we say in psychology, first imprison matters and is had to change. but i know that they will come around soon because i plan to start seminals once i start earning with this platform because that's what my country needs now that we are in recession and many youths idol and unemployed and worst still wasting their data on Facebook, and other. i love how you clearly wrote everything here and am sure that i have shared it on my Facebook,it will change some minds. thanks

I totally get that! It's crazy how things are and it's hard to convince people when they have seen these situations and feel every good thing that comes their way is the same. Btw there's a steemit meet up at lagos hosted by @oluwoleolaide

yes sir,i know about it but live at Enugu which is not even close. its in south east while Lagos is in southwest. so i plan to do such things later this year when i must have had the finance and the experience to tackle any challenge it brings our way.
thanks.
Good to know. Keep going ahead and you'll do great. Cheers!
