Been running a witness for the past week. Can confirm. I started, not to get rich quick, but because a) I am techy and have been interested in this for a while, and b) because I have become more involved in the Steem community lately and wanted to help rep the people I've met who cannot run a witness or simply don't understand what it is.

Thanks for posting this and clearing up some misconceptions many people have. Resteemed to spread the message. Also, killer server service ;)

Cheers and Steem on!
