RE: IMPORTANT dialog / correspondence from someone frustrated with steemit. DON'T MISS THIS INTERACTION.

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

My frustration is grounded from this post he made:

https://steemit.com/life/@prakashghai/selling-peanuts-for-a-living

..an old man, who should have been retired from steaming peanuts at $0.15 USD a bag in Jaipur, India.

That was a memorable post he made, showcasing a non-user of steemit, with a photo.

@prakashghai had a blog post upvoted to $2.99 for taking his photo, which is 19 bags of peanuts that seller would have to sell to local people in his district.

Something is wrong, when you can take a minimalist photo of a peanut vender making only 0.15 cents per bag, and you can also complain about the payouts of steemit. I'm just trying to put things into perspective for @prakashghai

Sort:  

Excellent example. Sometimes we forget how hard other people have to work just to earn a few cents.
I hope @prakashghai gets it (he should because he was the one who took the picture).
