    Do not add Space when adding tags - "Please use only 5 categories"

    do-not-add-space-when-adding-tags-please-use-only-5-categories

    I just found out that you should not add a space in between the tags because space will act like a category. Here in the below picture even though I have added only 5 categories it will display a message saying that "Please use only 5 categories". ![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmZzs4KnrCSRGqfQQWxKkCS9Zpug76xJBWkQuSSHbPKSjH/image.png) Guess what you failed to notice the space between steemit and photo. So next time when you receive this message check twice that have you added an extra space or not. It will not allow you to add space on the first tag.

    Why You should Blog for financial independence

    August 11, 2017
    why-you-should-blog-for-financial-independence

    Motivation Post An $100,000 a year salary is only $274 a day.$274 a day is only $11/hr if you earn income at 24 hours per day. Then, we also have to take taxes into account (big chunk of money), which further dilute your income. Most people work 8 hours per day and travel. So, how do you make money the other 16 hours? Simple. You need to create assets that generate income around the clock. There is nothing wrong with having a job to pay the bills and buy necessities, but a job rarely sets you up for financial independence. You need assets that pay you 24 hours a day, 365 days a year in this new sharing economy. And that asset is your Blog. Keep Blogging :)

    Stop giving Bribes and Help the Poor

    stop-giving-bribes-and-help-the-poor

    One of my friend has shared the story with me - I am working as a software engineer in an IT concern Bangalore. Today, I boarded into a BMTC bus to go to my office in the morning. It was very much crowded. The bus fare was 19 rupees. I gave 20 rupees to the bus conductor and asked for a ticket. He gave me the ticket to my office (for 19 rupees). He did not give the remaining one rupee. I asked him to give the one rupee and he told that he was not having 1 rupee change and he will give it to me when I am getting down. 3 other passengers were also travelling to my office. They also gave 20 rupees for a ticket and the conductor did not pay the remaining 1 rupees to each of them. I was observing this. Usually, when the bus reaches my office, nearly 30 or 40 passengers (all are IT employees) will get down and conductor can/will not give the change at that bus stop. He will keep that with himself (as a commission!!) That is why he will never give us the change at the time of giving a ticket even though he has it !! So, now let's come to the story. The bus was approaching my office and I asked the conductor a change of one rupee. He told that he did not have the change. And the bus had reached my office. Then an old lady boarded into the bus. While seeing her, I understood that she is poor and helpless. So, what I did was I yelled in the bus, “Hi all, how many of you need the 1 rupee change (remaining) from the conductor? Please raise your hands”. Approximately 20 hands were raised. So I asked them, “Friends are you ready to give this one rupee to this Grandma for her bus ticket?” Every body said. “Yes” . So, I asked the conductor to give her a ticket with that 20 rupees. He stared at me and gave the ticket to that Granny. Everybody started smiling(except the conductor) and the smile from that Granny made me to smile with Pride !! ( Stop giving Bribes/commissions and Start helping the needy !!)
