RE: How would you like to be a millionaire by the age of 18?
That is some great stuff right there! I am helping my niece who is 12 and already has a YouTube channel to get set up on steemit. It's these type of obscure challenges that our current education system does not currently fulfill. While education is important for my niece, I know she will learn a lot from this, good or bad! Thanks for sharing @jrcornel
Indeed! Lots of people are afraid of the uncertain, the unknown. Thats why crypto in general gets frown upon. But when one really believes in something, its important not to listen to naive outsiders and follow your instincts. Luckily I didnt listen to my friends when I told them I was buying ETH a year ago (at $12). I strongly believe that with conviction, good energy and hard work almost anything is possible. Dont let them fool you!
Hell yeah! Thanks for the motivation!
I recently just moved the largest portion of my crypto investments from Ether to Steem. Not that I feel ethereum will not do well or am trying to cut and run, but I feel that Steem is such a great platform, that I am a part of and truly believe in its success. Also, ICN finally hit a massive heater, so I felt good reallocating some resources.
That's great. Plus with steem you can earn it just by posting and interacting. Likely more of it the more SP you have. It just mostly sits there in Ether.
Exactly my thoughts!
My pleasure! Good luck in your Investments :D
Thank you sir. You as well.
Great points. I have heard a lot of that myself, unfortunately most of the times they were right in telling me to cut and run instead of believing. Live and learn. Are you still holding Ether?
I am !! Not a great day to be a holder today, but if I zoom out the charts, I got in at $12 , so $320 is not a bad deal. I try to see it that way so It bugs me less when I see ETH tanking.
Oh yea, you have held through many ups and downs to get to where you are now. It has a lot of big financial institutions backing it. It's on my short list of crypto winners in the long run.
That's fantastic! Let me know when she puts up a post. I wish her the best of luck :)
Thank you very much. She would love that! I screenshot a picture of this and sent it to her, gotta motivate these kids. lol
Don't put all your eggs in one basket. But the majority of your eggs should be BTC & ETH! And don't sell any of your hardly earned steem and don't power down!
Sold some Steem (but not all) to boost my rather scarce stash of Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Was not planning on it. Sick GIF btw!
The most valuable education is hardly in schools anymore, not that there isn't a lot of good stuff in the schools.
I think it's awesome every time I see someone like you that's willing to spend time to help a younger soul to show them so many valuable things that they can actually use in the real world.
Yeah, she is an amazing kid. I think I get more out of it than she does.
