Once again, this should be required reading for everyone that's new (and old) to Steemit. It took me forever to 'get it' where the money was coming from and how it was generated...

If only I had posts like this lol

But thankfully guys like you others are making this information much more visible. I'm going to tag my friend in this post because he's been asking me all day where does the money come from LOL I think this does a better job explaining it than I did....lol @nosyx
