It was just barely more than a year ago that I won a silver eagle on YouTube.  ........Well... Steemit is WAYYY better than YouTube, so it is AMAZING that I am able to win a American Silver Eagle here too!!!

# Thank you @goldkey !!!!!

I love paying it forward.  I did a little 'forward paying' to the STAX #steemsilvergold bottie.

## And since I won an American Silver Eagle.... And I am American.... I want to PAY IT FORWARD to @steemusa !!! For every $5 that this post gets upvoted..I will toss 1 Steem to @steemusa to support their upvote bot!!!

These community initiatives and support networks are so very helpful to keep so many amazing Steemians going FULL STEEM AHEAD!!!

Peace!!!
