New to the amazing world of Steemit

in #introducemyself7 years ago

The idea is awesome! Rewarding content with real value. This is the freaking future!

Let me introduce myself. As I was late to the cryptocurrency world, I decided to call myself
Biticoño (=Biticunt).

I am 31 and never took Bitcoin seriously until 2017 and that’s a big regret (never again). Anyway, I am averagely successful. I work in a Swiss private bank, a real one (In Switzerland)… I advise and talk to clients who are worth billions as well as very successful entrepreneurs, old women and illiterate millionaires… I have seen it all.

Like most, I had my fair share of stress and downtimes. What kept me going is that I love learning; 24/7 I try to learn something from any and every situation. I got lucky and ended up with a good job that pays well (nothing compared to what early bitcoiners made).

My most proud achievement is that I have travelled, lived and discovered cultures on every continents. I have stayed in the slums of Myanmar as well as 5 star hotels in Switzerland. You can imagine which place I learned more from… (Not a hotel)

I lived in Peru with 10$/ day and i can tell you, this is how you learn about Life! I have seen children go to school in the mornings, eat dinner at 6pm provided by volunteers and then go work on the streets until 11pm without losing faith in the beauty of life. These are my real heroes. These are the ones who taught me the most.

My favorite thing is animals. I LOVE animals and I can’t stand hunters. They’re as bad as rapists, traffickers, warmongers…
In another life I would be a traveler, photographer, writer with animals always close. Then I would go to Japan, learn Japanese for a few years and end my days in some Japanese inn in Hokaido.

Anyways… coming back to real life, that was me in Africa volunteering to take care of lions.

Biticoño

Favorite Quote:

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” Theodore Roosevelt

By traveling you recognise the value of money better as most people you come across don' t have it!
I travel a lot but mostly work, can't wait to take a few years off to travel around with my girlfriend.
