This is a question occupied in a lot of hiver's mind. This is difficult to answer. Some like to upvote themself but some do not like to upvote themself. 

People think upvoting ourself is selfish but can you tell me the name of a man without ego. It will be ok if you do not upvote yourself too much. 10% selfvote should be allowed.

But I want to make a boundary on this topic. I heard a sentence from someone that we should not upvote ourself because we already get 50% curation reward from upvoting other people's post. **I did not know we can get more than 50% by upvoting our post.**. I will check this out. If someone comment on my post I will upvote his comment and my replies so I may get the answer I need. 

But there are two conditions to decide this matter. 

1. If your HP is too low you should not upvote yourself.
2. If your HP is decent you can upvote yourself. 

If your HP is too low you can not get much money from your upvote. If you upvote other's people post you may have a chance to get a vote back. This is good for you if your partner's vote has value higher than you. 

But if your upvote worth a lot you can upvote yourself. Because by upvoting your self you can convert HP to HBD. If you upvote on other people's post you will only get HP. If you upvote yourself you will also get some HBD. This is nice if you want to get some quick buck.

This is what I think. I will be glad if you write you thought on my post.
