Hi,
My name is Rodney. As you can tell I am such newb to the cryptoverse. It often makes me question if I am late to the dance? Let me be upfront about myself and my thoughts. I am from the hood. Philadelphia to be exact. Let me tell you there is no talk about crypto currency in the hood. It's a shame really. I mean this is ground breaking! I cannot begin to imagine what my life would be like right now had I been aware of bitcoin on the ground floor! I am a 40 year old project estimator. My hobbies and dreams are how to get rich and how to be a part of something that is going to be a game changer. I got involved with bitcoin about 8 months ago somewhere around the $800 mark. A few months later I got involved with Ethereum when ether was $8.20 per coin. Why does it matter when I got involved with crypto?? Here is why........
I first heard of bitcoin when it was around $100 per coin(some time in 2013). I tried to kick the idea around with my co-worker about investing a little into it. You know get in on the ground floor of something life changing. Being a part of something huge! My co-worker is tight wallet-ed, scared to take chances with his hard earned money, glass half empty kind of guy (side note I love my co-workers. yes even him) ....Smacking my damn head!!! Why would I talk about game changing opportunity with him of all people?!?! The bigger question is why in the world would I take his advice when I was the one giving the advice??!!
Can you talk about this with everyone? Should you talk about crypto with everyone?
My answer is simple. Absolutely!!! Yes you should talk about crypto to any and everyone, help get the word out. What you should not do is listen to them sell you fear on something they know nothing about. At the end of the day I have myself to blame for not being in the elite group of btc holders. I should have listened to my heart. When I want to do something I usually go all in.
Back to me getting into btc at $800. I was so upset with myself. I missed the gravy train!!!
Not even. with btc up over $2,000.00 I got in at very good time. It would have been a bit nicer to get in at $100.00 (see what I did there :-) "a bit nicer) But heck I more than doubled my money. Ethereum is up to $143.64 at the time I am on this blog. I paid $8.20 per ether and it is up to $134.64!!!!
No it is not too late!!! Get in now! Get in with both feet! be a part of something game changing. This is our next step in evolution!
I believe in God first and foremost. So therefore I love my brothers and my neighbors and I want for them what I want for myself. That is why I talk about bitcoin in the hood even if they don't want to hear it. At least I told you about. That is my take on it.
