Introduce Yourself - Dissenting opinions welcome

Hi Everyone!  

My name is Yelka. I’m originally from Venezuela but came to the US to get my college education. Now I spend my time between Southeast Florida and Central Kansas. Indigo Technologies is my company. My background is in computer science and economics. Like many others, I got interested in the idea of passive income after reading Robert Kiyosaki’s book Rich Dad Poor Dad. At the time I envisioned there would come a day in my life when I would live off of that passive income and spend my time on what my passions were, not someone else’s agenda. I’m at that point of my life now.    

I am thrilled to be a part of the Steemit community. I vigorously support independent minds raising their voices! For my humble grain of sand I will be sharing provocative commentaries on many of today’s issues ranging from online privacy (vs. security), the injustices of our justice system, finding  solutions to economic development problems, passive income, my perspective on the Venezuelan situation, and other random thoughts. I enjoy a good discussion on the issues of the day, and how they affect our daily lives. My guiding principles are empathy, humanity, generosity, transparency in government, privacy for the individual and corporations are NOT people! I look forward to discussing with you the issues of the day and shedding light on what the MSM doesn’t.   

I'm new at this, so please say hi and let me know your thoughts and if you like the same themes so I can follow you!  Dissenting opinions are welcome!

Hi, Welcome to Steemit! I enjoyed your introductory post and wil be following you. I am a big proponent of blockchain technology as it removes the 'middle man' so to speak and puts us more on a person to person relationship without interference. I am a philosophy / political science guy who loves to get into discussions on topics where there is no 'right' answer. Enjoy!

@allcapsonezero awesome! I love philosophy and political science as well. I just followed you. Looking forward to our discussions! :)

Hi @dindar thanks for the welcome. I see that you are into health and gardening. I love native planting gardening and was into it for a long time. Especially sustainable gardens that provide food for people and wildlife and 'host' plants for butterflies. Also into health and have a blog about aging gracefully (proper posture is a big part of it). I'm looking forward to enjoying your posts.

Interesting topics you will be posting it seems, just be warned, there are hundreds of users, some are to the point in leaving comments, don't always take it to heart, especially when it comes to "provocative" topics ;-)

May you find success here!

Hello and welcome to Steemit! :)

Let me know if need any help.

Best of luck to you!

Thanks @heigovannik I thought about the five tags but since it was really about introducing myself I didn't know what other tags to add. Tags about the topics I will be writing on? I didn't want to make a faux pas. :)

Well, you need to use your creative mind :)
