[Lnc-business] Question re: online media

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

Hello everyone, I have a steemit account.  If you don't know what that is,
in a very simple form, it is a social media sharing site in which you earn
crypto for posting, upvoting, etc.  Some people make large amounts of money
there.  I do not.  I think my highest post earned .65 cents because I am
not there for that but it is possible one day that one will take off, you
never know.

But here is the question.  I would like to post some of the historical
materials there to raise awareness and interest in the LP and its history.
I, however, do not wish to make any money off of straight posting of videos
etc with no original analysis or content.  There is an option to turn off
monetization of any post, so I can always do that.  But it is possible that
these posts could generate interest - so to the question, if monetization
was kept on would there be a conflict or issue if I did that to raise money
for the Historical Committee?  The money would go to me as it is my
account, and then I would personally donate it.  Realistically we are
probably talking about probably under $50 in a year.

Would appreciate some guidance here.  For the time being, I am setting any
repost of historical videos to monetization off.  But if I could raise
funds for the committee I would love to.
