I think that's all the amount earned from the post. But that's distributed between those who upvote it 50% and me 50%. My 50% also goes the half in steem power and the other in steem and steem dollar. The steem dollar could be easially converted to steem and I will have that in steem. So, you can say that I earned 8/4 and that's $2 in steem and the other $2 goes to steem power that I can withdraw during the power down. The steem power takes 4 weeks to withdraw and every week I will get about 1/4 from it.
