This is a story for all you wagies hitting the 9-5 and barely breaking even. I was like you, and I fucking dreaded it to the point of near suicide. > Be me > 2012 > High school dropout. My dad was works as a broker for all sorts of things, oil, gold... my mum, she’s a housewife > My dad would always put my mum down for working, he always wanted the best for her > FFWD business trip, dad is in Guinea for a deal. Told to stay in hotel and not go out and let the traders come to the hotel because guinea is a sketchy shithole. > Time passes by, gets called to lobby. They’re in a 4WD with 3 africans inside. > They tell him it’s better to bring him to their factory to check up on stock and bring his documents > Dad goes with it, they drive off > But not to a factory, a safehouse > Dad was restrained, chained up to a wall. > They rummage through his bags while torturing him to gain passwords for his accounts > Dishes out ransom emails to send to moneygramme (how I caught wind) while stuffing gun in his mouth and hitting him > My old man is 70 btw > Me back in melbourne didn’t knew what to do, shit i was taking my high school exams. My mum and I panicked, I thought it was fake but af but no. So my mum got hold of his business partner > He calls in interpol, a day later we learn that the captors had fled, and he was flown to the embassy to be checked up and sent home. > He’s now blind in one eye because they tried to gouge it. > He has a flagged reputation from spamming ransom mails to all his contacts, and he’s disabled > My mum can’t find a job, we have a lot of accumulated debt. so I take up customer service > A year later I can’t afford high education so I’m slinging between 2 jobs, that and teaching swimming. Note i dropped CS for being a waiter because its too stationary for me > I can barely hold my family up, but no one fucking else will because i’m the only son
> I learned about Crypto, and thought this is some revolutionary technology. I’d watch countless of videos on blockchain > Risked a great portion of my savings on ETH, that turned out very well. > I managed to settle our major debts and got us a new rented home by a guarded community > Lost some in the DAO. I Began writing on steemit and earned quite a bit there, slowly I began advising smaller ICO’s on marketing strategies and found a new passion > Rode the BNB wave and always looking out for LINK > Always diversified to BTC and scrutinized paid signals/bounty groups I’d have access to. I’m a stingy cunt > Here I am thinking, I’ve made it. I no longer have to worry if I’ll be able to eat in a weeks time > I can afford multiple electronic devices and luxury goods without worrying about my savings > I don’t work 9-5, but its irregular. I learned to work smart. > Currently with the market sentiment, Exchange Tokens are very attractive, I’m heavy on those for stability, because I’ve filled up my bags. Don’t ever be too greedy.
Crypto has helped me in ways I can’t imagine.. It’s my duty to give back. Look out for Scalable Blockchains, Different Consensus and pry heavily on Teams. Exchange Tokens are a big thing too, It’s funny how there’s a big battle between Coinbase and Binance. But yeah, that’s my story. Feel free to shoot questions.

Sweet, I've got ZIL and QKC too. Will you be looking to get blockchain.io? As you are interested in exchange tokens. I see you have good taste in tokens...
