It seems what I'm earning per post is currently less than a dollar. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) And even with that, I don't consider my self rich. I'm basically unemployed, just tending a small store which provide our daily needs. A dollar per post might help but that's not enough to be considered rich, even in this 3rd world country I live in. Maybe when I actually have enough for alt trading and for keeping some fiat in the exchange in preparation for buying during plunges. That's what I liked about being in this forum. I got to read and learn about bitcoin and when I finally became eligible, I was able to join a campaign. At least the money I get is enough to pay for my internet connection and the occasional dine out. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

A lot of us are making nearly a dollar a post from our activity here and being involved in a signature campaign. There are so many people living on just a dollar a day. If only those people could a participate here they could find a way out of poverty...or at least another source of income to buy food for their family. What do you all think about that? We're all rich here...all of us. A documentary to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtL_nsWCo7sWatch it, then give. First of all, in my opinion it doesnt make sense, because signature campaining shouldnt be a job that you can rely on, there are many possibilities where you can't be able to continue that. You should remember that people living for dollar a day are usually inhabitants of the area where you dont have internet, or sometimes even electricity. So how could anyone there afford you pay electricity+internet bills, and sit infront of the computer to make posts in english, a language they probably dont know so well? Also, the knowledge about bitcoin is required to post here, making non-constructive posts will make you banned for signature campainings. There are thousands reasons I could give more, but that just doesnt make sense for people like that, I would be in a search of more attractive ways to eliminate poverty among society.

Signature campaigns aren't going to change life for the better or fight world poverty. It's just scraps compared to the time you're spending on doing it, that's for one, and the funds businesses spend on campaigns each month are just a drop of water in the sea. Think about it for a while and do some numbers. A typical campaign with 20 participants pays out maybe 1BTC per month. Even if that was given to some African village of 200 people, you wouldn't even be able to give each of them a dollar per day to buy food and medicine. You need millions to make a difference in there and they will probably destroy it anyway, because that's what is happening to many of the schools and hospitals that were built in Africa.

I said a village of 200 people. What's your point? Giving the money as charity would only hurt the business owner. My view is that you can drown money in Africa all you want. People have been doing that for centuries and the natives used to live in clay houses and run around half naked and they will continue to do so with or without the charity.

You realize we are talking about bct sig campaigns? 2 people earning a 1 btc each per month could feed a village of 200 for a month in 3rd world africa. I think it is very likely that you are not from an industry nation yourself? So even for you 1 btc per month should be more then enough to feed yourself right? @centuries of african welfare So you think the african colonies were paradise? You are a trump supporter right? ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Please learn some history. Like just spend 50$ of your 1000$ sig campaign to get some education.

I'm basically unemployed, just tending a small store which provide our daily needs. A dollar per post might help but that's not enough to be considered rich, even in this 3rd world country I live in.
If you're getting paid, you're not unemployed. I'm glad that work from tending the small store and a bit of income from this site helps you out. I think a lot of your are missing my point. There are nearly 2 BILLION people that live on less than a dollar a day. These are the poor in this world. The rest of us are rich. And for those of us who participate in a signature campaign, we can make more than $1 a day from this activity...therefore we are not poor by Earth standards. Broaden your perspective on this. Rich doesn't equal yacht. Super, uber fucking rich equals yacht. We're all rich if we have steady income and enough to put a roof over our bed, clothes on our back, and food in our mouth. There's a significant portion of people in this world we all share that don't have those basic life needs.

I have problems above the roof, but I still have time to live with dignity, maybe even poor.

First i would like to say, that even if you are in some really good Signature Campaign, you can not become rich only with that. And i don't know any place where you can live with only one dollar a day, and when i say live i mean 3 meals a day. It is true that some people earn a bit from signature campaigns, but i didn't heard of someone who lives from it. So to live a good live, one does need to be functional and productive person in community.

There's a significant portion of people in this world we all share that don't have those basic life needs. I'm still considered poor by my country's standards. I wouldn't be even considered middle class. Guess standards do vary. They have self-reported surveys here and when I saw some of the people being interviewed on TV, I've seen people living near rail tracks that don't consider themselves "poor". My reaction was like "My God, their house look shitier than mine!". I guess the term I'll have to use for myself now is "surviving but not yet thriving". ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) If you dont know 1000$ can feed 100 people for atleast a month in 3rd world africa.

Though I don't agree with the apparent deterministic tone when you talked about Africans, I agree with you on the effect of freebies. They don't always benefit the poor and can even do harm by putting people out of business. Aside from the feeding programs, which might be essential for some, it would be better if the money would be used to encourage entrepreneurship. They can also go sneaky and try to improve institutions if that's what's causing the poverty problem. After all, most poor countries also have high levels of corruption.

Corruption does not allow to develop business in such countries. Officials are not interested in business development and as a consequence of the emergence of the middle class. For them it is always a danger of losing their influence and opportunity to take bribes.

LOL, it'll take more than a dollar a day to be called not poor. In my country that would only buy you a cup of rice and a bit of viand. And that is in the poor areas. You go to fast food and that wouldn't be enough to satiate your hunger.
$7 dollars and there, that would probably be enough for the whole day. Assuming you don't need to pay rent, water and electricity.

That would be one hell of a campaign. Since when is my campaign paying $1000? The maximum is 0.01 per week, that gives you a whopping 0.04 BTC per month! A whole 48 bucks at current prices. My education... Since we're going personal, I'll tell you that they taught me how to count, which seems to be the ability you're lacking. Also, I'm not American, but I have nothing against Trump or his supporters.

But it doesnt matter anyway because you can just make multiple accounts and join multiple sig campaigns. I guess the only thing you learned in school was counting. Because like i said you have no clue in history. But that is understandable. There are reasons why you call such nations the 3rd world. Edit I just went in the service sub.

How do you define "3rd world" nations? And I believe your math is off. 1btc divided by 0.04 is 25 and 25 multiplied by 80 posts is 2000 posts. So it would take 2000 posts at this rate for one to earn 1btc...and if that happened on this forum that person would get banned for life! Thanks for commenting on this thread! The maximum is 0.01 per week, that gives you a whopping 0.04 BTC per month!

This is something that I really don't want to see happen for the pure reason that if more people are here and doing sig camps, it's going to lower the overall quality of the forum and it's going to lower the amount of money that people are paid in order to post on here.
I don't think we should really make that the answer with the influx of people it's going to make posts on here worth pennies on the dollar and it's going to be a waste for everyone else here watching the fourm go to shit.
Don't let it happen fellas, it'll ruin Bitcointalk forever. Let these people get real jobs and move on instead of taking over this.

Perhaps this form is the only way to get not just additional money, but in general at least some earnings. And I also think that this contributes to the popularity of bitcoin.
