I couldn't help thinking about artists and actors who feel over rewarded for their success, feeling guilt for being successful when so many other aspiring artists are struggling.

I think Hive more than anywhere is ideal for people who are over rewarded. Success means that you can delegate, upvote including autovotes, and lead communities to do whatever good things your influence allows. More importantly, a large enough account can have helpers distribute votes.

In the physical world, a successful artist couldn't delegate their wealth. They would have to donate it or bear the cost of running a campaign. That's very different here on Hive. One doesn't have to give away anything to help the community.

There are some people I have on autovote because they are consistent in the quality of their work. But, there aren't too many people on autovote. I agree that to some degree this is like patreon.
