Thanks for the big-up @hitmeasap :D

I must say that the delegation I've been paying for for a year now was and has remained an excellent price. Sadly, it will end at the end of next month, but I think I got good value out of it. Most of it was, as you say, forwarded on to Redfish who were/are engaged and have mostly become Minnows now.

The timing of this post..... I was actually thinking about writing something on delegations as I've been trimming (in advance of losing this 4k) bits off the people I have delegations out to, being careful not to put them back to Redfish status as I go.

It's really cool to check on their accounts every month or so and see that they have made good progress towards being a Minnow. This is the case for the most part, but there are a few that (I guess out of necessity) are cashing out as they try to grow. I'm not sure what to do in this case.

And I have to mention that @fulltimegeek, @v4vapid, @yabapmatt, @krnel, and the 'crazy' Minnow known as @beeyou, delegate a total of 7600 SP to me for free at present, which is totally awesome. With my self-vote status, I think it's easier for them to do so as they know that their SP is going out to the community.

With an extra 20, 50, stuff it... 100k, I could do some pretty cool things but I'm not expecting this without a cost.

Your heart is in the right place man, don't stress it too much and let's keep on going.

Cheers
