Hi @faraicelebr8, you need to be patient, it may still become your cash cow. I am on steemit from August 2016, my account is now $7000.00, which is still not much, but if the value of steem keeps on rising it will become something of real value, just keep on working, and don't power down, the more steem power you have the more money you make with curation, this is only my view, but I think it is worth concidering.
