My story; How it all started

![IMG_20180211_082122.jpg]()

A couple of weeks ago, I was with my coursemate @joshuaedoja and he told me about steemit and how i can benefit from steemit. After some research and following @jerrybanfield on youtube, I was amazed at what people are benefiting.

I have been on several social media platforms for years with thousands of followers and posts without benefiting financially. I have always wanted to be autonomous as a young boy growing up. I have tried several pay-to-click sites which after exceeding withdrawal limits will eventually not pay, I have tried many online surveys that end up not paying. So i gave up on online or social media means of making money.

My mind changed after going through alot of accounts on steemits and seeing how much one can earn by posting what they enjoy doing and being themselves. This is definitely the place to be!

Steemit has brought hope to me. Knowing that there is a place where what  I post is valued and i will be rewarded for it, I get to meet people that will add value to my life either by upvoting my post or me benefitting from their quality contents.

Three days after i was invited, I signedup on steemit and just today I was approved.

I am writing this post today, so that you all can get to know me and see the contents I post and I in turn get to  know you, bond with you through comments.

I am hoping steemit will be my number one social media platform where I can interact with new people and get equipped with quality contents as my website will be up and running in a few months time.

Facebook is the social media I use the most and this is the link to my facebook account
