To a certain extent you do. Personally, I invested in Steem power and that helped tremendously. I couldn't even imagine with starting with no money. It's still possible to grow obviously with amazing content.
Disregarding the money offered on Steem, it's a great place to learn about an industry. The amount of free information you are given on here is incredible. You are getting paid to attain information and also contribute information which is AMAZING.
If you can invest then that is best for you as well as steem. But not all of us can.
And I perfectly content with what I've achieved without investing. Just look at the alternatives and Steem is better in every way
"You don't have to invest..........." - Man, I am not so sure about that. I might not have invested fiat here but a significant portion of my time goes on the platform here. Sure I want to buy more coins that I like - if I had the money, but that isn't the case. My time is what I have and that's what I am trying to use here.
I think time is an investment here and I am pretty sure a lot folks feel that way. In fact understanding that allows me to be more conscious of using it more efficiently here. Still the bottom line is that I am grateful that the platform allows me the opportunity to earn without spending fiat :-)
It is free and that is a fact. Still it requires an investment and that is how value is essentially generated here.

It’s still possible to make money without investing which is the great part about Steem.
Dunno, I'm more a proponent of people investing something to the community and not just trying to chase dollars.
Trust me I would if I could

I agree ..
Actually time is also an investment.
Time is money
