Hi, Kenny - just an update from personal experience: one single read of an old boosted story yesterday = $6.57 for the full engagement+follow.

It's the piece I now have pinned at the top of my (slowly rotating) profile page. I made a supportive and detailed comment on a piece by a writer I'd never read before, they clearly looked at my profile, read the top pin, responded and followed.

It really is worth having a few Boosts that reflect you as a person pinned there, I think, as it gives people who come across you in those chance interactions an insight into your style, but is also a handy but of passive income. If it happened every day (which is unlikely, admittedly) you're talking about a couple of hundred bucks a month for doing nothing more than hanging out on the platform 'meeting' people, which seems like a good deal for a fiver a month.
