This old woman loves Steemit and Cryptos

What is this 66 year old great-grandmother doing on Steemit? And more curiously why is she so deeply involved with cryptocurrencies? Isn't this for the younger set?

I have always liked learning new things and I love to read write and talk. Maybe too much sometimes to be honest. That's what excites me about Steemit. Another way to blog, the fact that it also involves CryptoCurrency is a huge plus.

I was actually dragged kicking and screaming into Bitcoin. You know that fake money that doesn't really exist? At least that was my opinion just 9 months ago. I was forced to use Bitcoin as a payment processor when I was involved with a program that stopped using Payza and the other processors were not available for use by me in the US. I was not only unhappy but scared to death.

In no time however I became comfortable with it and spent time helping others in that program to learn and solve problems. I learned which wallets were used in certain countries and how to fund them in some cases.

Now Bitcoin is my preferred way of not only paying for things online but also to get paid myself. I can transfer Bitcoin to a debit card and use it anywhere. I now have six wallets I use for different purposes.

I now also own not only Bitcoin but Ethereum Steem Ripple and Verge. Wow. I am also slowly learning to do a little trading. I welcome advice and I am happy to help those with what I know or have experienced

I will post blogs here of all types of things short and long. To make it seem a little less random I will use categories. I enjoy sharing what I recently read learned about or experienced. I hope I don't bore anyone .
