My Introduction, Myself, My life... My journey here!

in introduceyourself •  6 years ago 

Bonjour, Hello, Hallo :-)

Well I am here! My Introduction, Myself, My life.. My journey here. It has been a long road!

I resigned my job two years ago as an IT support expert for a security printing company here in Ghana. I was tired of the 8-5 commute to work, Monday to Friday...the traffic and the stress and always being broke. Then I had to take a bank loan to support my family. Life was unbearable 1. because now I am not getting my usual salary (even though I was inadequate) I was not getting enough contract or jobs to support my  freelance work.


Ooooh! Sorry my manners...my name is George Jabley. I was born in Accra, Ghana, West Africa. Not many westerners know about Ghana though. Well Ghana is a beautiful country, welcoming people, fastest growing economy in the world and stable democracy. Many foreigners mistake Ghana with Guyana   
Ghana Flag


Guyana Flag

 Akwaaba! (meaning 'welcome' in a local dialect in my Country-Ghana)


Our women...whoa! beautiful and well endowed...In Europe and America, when I woman is skinny is 

considered healthy. In Ghana, well endowed women, is something else.  
,

some of the well known festivals are



 Kwame Nkrumah (21 September 1909 – 27 April 1972) was a Ghanaian politician and revolutionary. He was the first prime minister and president of Ghana, having led the Gold Coast to independence from Britain in 1957. 

I love people, ideas, learning, researching, teamwork, food, creating, developing

Things have been a little difficult for me in the last 3-4 months, Thank God I am getting back on my feet with few jobs I got last month.

I came across steemit on Stacksocial website. I used the website a lot to look for discount on courses sometimes how to make money oline etc. I stumbled on this course: The Complete Cryptocurrency Investment Bundle with individual courses:  Cryptocurrency Wealth: How to Trade & 

Invest Like the Pro, The Ultimate Bitcoin and Blockchain Course & Audio Book, Blockchain and Bitcoin Fundamentals, The Complete Ethereum (Cryptocurrency) Guide, Complete Steemit Course: Earn Cryptocurrency For Free 


Steemians I watched on Youtube

Well I did not have money at the time so I went on youtube and downloaded all the video on 

steemit I could find. I watched Videos from @rmach, @georgedonnelly, @jerrybenfield, @coolkid@sarah, @genics, @just2random, @anarchast, @joshbar, @briantuner, @cryptoversity, roblubbon, @naughtyinvestor, @heiditravels, @joeparys, @ivanuralsky, @rulesforrebels, @reseller@terrrybrock, @kinscrown, @obhai786, @cryptomining, @alexfortin, @logicalguy, @moneyguru@projectdiaries, @hannalicious, @robinhanev, @lokesh

Yes Yes thanks so much @checky. I think I was typing faster than I thought and my daughter was also pulling stuffs around me. But I also checked some of the names though like @hannahlicious and @robinhaney (I found @hannalicious and @robinhanev instead. ) Thanks for the corrections, I would have to check back on the videos again. Wow I did not know I would be welcome this way.
