After you answer that Q, can you guess why I bother to ask this kind of Q at cost of 5 points, when I have some expectations about the kinds of answers I will get?

Wow, so many Philosophy questions!
At the cost of 5 minutes of my time, I'll do my best to answer.
No, I am never empowered asking questions.
I am usually disappointed by the answers.
Yes, I am empowered by answering questions.
If I do not know all the important facts asked for - I find them.
"Knowledge is power." So, I gain a little power in the process.
No, from what I have read being asked in the Philosophy category, I am better off staying in the History category and reading the other peoples' Q & As there.
I can only guess that you can afford 5 points, and you are looking for the reason why others frequent this category and not the Polls & Surveys category.
Did my answers meet your expectations?

I don't like asking questions. I do enjoy answering questions. It is not the points that I care about (Much). It is the ability to answer a question that challenges my mind. I work at a rather mundane job and this keeps me awake(Mentally). I also like the opportunity with some questions to help someone. Give encouragement or sometimes to reduce the depression. I don't read most people's answers. Sometimes I will read the answers before I give my answer and skip the question if someone has a similar viewpoint to mine.

I only check interesting question, and thus have to answer interestingly.
