One thing I really hate here and in real life is seeing people complaining and begging. This is the ugliest thing you can do, topped with a big amount of jealousy towards those who have more. Let me tell you a story that happened in real life.

Once upon a time I had a coworker who was not very sharp, unfortunately she wasn't even average. She was the biggest voice of all, always having an opinion about everything, even though in many cases she had no idea what it was about. 

One day things changed for her and she needed more money to take care of things. She asked for a meeting with the employer and told him she needs a raise because she needs more money to be able to pay the bills. It was a very unfortunate situation and the worst approach from her part as the employer was in business of selling goods and not in sponsoring her lifestyle. She should have known better but the only thing she could (always) see was her own person and her needs. Nothing more. 

Needless to say the meeting was a disaster, she was asked why would she think she deserves a raise. Her answer was because she needs more money. The dumbest answer possible. She didn't get any raise, of course, instead she was labeled as not the smartest to pot it nicely. 

I see this kind of behaviour here on Steem blockchain very often. People saying they need more and blaming those tho have more of not helping. Somehow these people think those who have more are obligated to help and of course, those who are complaining are the best candidates to receive this help. 

This is the fastest way to nowhere! This has been proven many times and it's true. You may get lucky and get something from a few people but it's not working on the long term. No one is going to sponsor you endlessly just because you think you deserve it. 

I'm repeating myself here as I've said this before. There are so many projects on Steem blockchain, you can join and work for a reward. You can be a curator, moderator, supervisor you name it. It means daily work but also recognition among other things. This is how things on the blockchain are built. There are no shortcuts here, no one got rich just by doing nothing. 

Those of you who love to complain and through tantrums all the time, let me ask you a question. Why are whales obligated to help you? Have you ever thought about the fact that those whales got their SP working hard by investing their time, knowledge and their own money? I don't think so. 

HF21 brought a few changes and some people got hurt very badly. That's reality. Posting is not so profitable anymore as instead of 75/25 you're getting 50/50 now. Those who have been cashing out constantly are in a very difficult position now as curation will bring them less. The less SP you hold, the less you are going to make on curation.  This is not rocket science. 

However, I'd say instead of complaining all the time, you'd better look for solutions, new opportunities. There are plenty here all the time. It's up to you!
