I'm Mills, and I'm here to save for college [...and buy video games]!

in #introduceyourself7 years ago

Hi, Steemit! Can I tell you something? My name is Mills Guthrie! I’m joining Steemit under the surrogate account management of my dad, @kommienezuspadt […he’ll be maintaining my account until I’m 13, at which point I will cash out all my liquid STEEM and buy a PS7]. I’m a happy kid. I love mango lassi's. Resident Minnesotan, artist, technology enthusiast, nephew to @customnature, Grandson to @bonni, child of @vermillionfox and friend to @mada, @tarotbyfergus […I call him Magic Brian], @bryanpolitte […I call him Art Bryan], @moony and the rest of the Caffetto incubator […as my dad calls it]. 


I was born under water in Stillwater, MN. My parents are artists so that’s come naturally. I enjoy drawing and coloring. I like Minecraft a great deal […I have a suspicion that my dad, @kommienezuspadt, bought me my first PC for my sixth birthday]. I’m tend to discover something and obsess over it. Minecraft is the Bitcoin of my rotating enthusiasm […I may get away from it occasionally, but it’ll never go away and I’ll always re-discover it’s value after a short break]. Five Nights At Freddy’s also has a special place in my heart as the first scary experience I’d had and enjoyed. Lately, I’ve been in to Bendy and Boris, this creepy evil version of the original Mickey Mouse cartoons. 


I just graduated from kindergarten and I’m looking forward to being a first grader. I wasn’t sure if I’d like school, but I it’s become on the cornerstones of my life. My school is integrated with both neuro-typical and special needs children, which is cool because I have a half brother with autism […I was able enroll because of their sibling preference program, which I’m grateful for]. I had the best kindergarten teacher a kid could ask for. She has a little boy my age and we’re close friends. Now that I have my kindergarten diploma, I’m looking forward to new challenges, words, science and math problems. 

I’m hoping to bring some of my gaming perspective to Steemit. Gaming is a big part of my life and I’m planning on big leaps forward this year. I’ve been asking @kommienezuspadt for a Nintendo Switch […and he always says, “Calm down, Millsy! I have to post a lot more on Steemit before we can buy that!”. I think he’s cracking, though]. Do you know how to make a Witherstorm mod in Minecraft? I can teach you! I’d also like to bring my unique voice to the community with video blogs. I make them until my iPad is full! All of that, plus art and photos.  


My dad isn’t taking the training wheels off my Steemit account until I’m 13, but between now and then, he’ll be helping me with posts. Any STEEM or SBD I earn here will be put in to a savings account so I can go to whatever college I want when I’m older […pssshhhhh, STEEM is going to be worth $300 by then so I’m not too worried about it]. Thanks for reading! I’m looking forward to bringing my youthful world view to the Steemit community!

Hey! Welcome on steemit boy! From time to time I do game giveaways ;)

Thanks @makishart!

nice strategy

I noticed this kindergarten child can write as good as a high school student, lol. He even knows how to use ellipses, brackets, and tag a bunch of people in his post. It almost seems like his parents wrote this fishing for money...

I thought it was obvious in the post [...had you read it] that his dad is managing the account as a savings, since Steemit TOS states you have to be 13 years old to create account. I'm glad I'm not your child if the conclusion you make is "...his parents are fishing for money." -@kommienezuspadt, yes...@guthrie's dad.

getting ready for future !!!

Welcome to Steemit! By the time you are ready to go to college, college as we know it today might be extinct. In the meantime you can learn so much for free on the Internet and watch your Steem account grow.

It can't hurt, @pixelpat! I think you're right. Maybe more than trying to cobble together a Steemit savings, it's probably a good idea to nab up the usernames we want while Steemit is still in it's infancy.
