Not for me, for us, bitcoin is the best online payment system and also source of income. Some websites offering free bitcoins, but be careful and make complete research on free bitcoins. In market, there are a variety of ways to earn bitcoins.
I used to have bitcoin for payments, but these days with high fees it's better to have/use bitcoin for speculation. I hope the time will come again where the fees are normal and transactions are faster without paying jackpot.
The normal fees won't ever come back, because bitcoin is changing, it is increasing all the time and it will continue on rising above the ground as long as the day is passing by, because of the people who are interested in bitcoin, the bitcoin demand is increasing causing the fees and other stuffs on bitcoin increase also, it is just being fair with the demand, it is normal.
If you don't want to think about this high transaction fee, then start to make your earnings bigger than the usual so this transaction fee would just be like a simple "coins" to you and not the "paper" money.
