I can relate to feeling the effort is or is not worth it based on the reward. I find it much the same here on Hive. I have never been a large earner here. I have come to accept that. I am ok with it because I only post what I want, when I want. In a way it is a mixed blessing coz I feel no pressure to post anything at all since the 1USD reward is not going to make me or break me lol.

Writing has always been a hobby for me. I did spend a few years in the IT industry as a technical writer, but I bailed because I (a) didn't like Korporate Amerika and (b) it felt like "selling out" because I didn't get to write anything I wanted to write.
I never had aspirations of making it to "whalehood," and I doubt I ever will. I'm grateful that all these posts and comments gradually added up to paying our property taxes a couple of years ago — that was cool! — but unless Hive goes to $100, this will remain a hobby.
