Agreed it is not all about money but if one can get paid for doing something they enjoy (being social) then it should be welcomed. Not everyone here has the benefit of being in a country with stable currencies or careers so if STEEM can provide that, even better. If you do not care about the money, and only care about the social aspect, nothing deters you from donating the cryptocurrency to other causes. I have seen many communities here on Steemit willing to help others in need.
