You will never believe where I'm from...

Hello steemians!

First of all I want to say that I'm excited to join this awesome community which I was first introduced to Steem by watching one of @dollarvigilante videos on youtube. He creates awesome content about the cryptocurrency space, so if you would like to know more about cryptos, be sure to follow him.

My name is Kevin Damken

This is me

And I'm from Reynosa, Tamaulipas Mexico, which is currently one of the most dangerous places you could live in Mexico. Studies made by the INEGI show that 84.1 % of the citizens in Reynosa feel insecure to live here.

This is a news report made by "La Tarde" of the shootout that happened literally this morning. Audio is in Spanish

Although I live in a very violent city, I've been lucky that nothing has happened to me or my family. I have many hobbies, which are:

                   - Soccer
                   - Gaming
                   - Exercising 
                   - Reading 
                   - Music
                   - LEARNING

Learning is by far my favorite hobby and I'm not talking about learning things they teach in school but learning the things they DON'T teach you in school, such as financial education, how to build your own business, how to spot trends, how to be happy, how to understand yourself, how to be healthy and many many other things. I'm a big fan of Tai Lopez , which I'm sure most have heard of him, and he says there are 4 pillars to "The Good Life" which are:

1.- Health
2.- Wealth
3.- Love
4.- Happiness

In fact the reason I'm using Steem is because I want to share all of the things I am and will be learning about these 4 pillars to you guys, as a way to pay it forward. I might share about, financial education, music, soccer, gaming, cryptocurrency, stock market, the books I read, self-consciousness . I always had the idea of sharing many of the things I learn everyday that I know can also benefit other people, but never interested me to do it on any other social media platform. What better way to do it than Steem?

So, if you are interested in learning and growing as a person follow me! I'm sure I will bring a lot of value to you guys and the whole community. As Warren Buffet says "The more you learn, the more you earn"

Hi @shiv123. Thank you very much! :) One of the things I learned through other mentors is that you always gotta be hungry for that knowledge, because just as Warren Buffet said " The more you learn, the more you earn". I'd love to give away all the value I can to the Steemit Community :)

Looking forward to giving

Steemit is an awesome social media platform which I see disrupting the other giants out there with almost zero value to its users.
