A Little Bit About Myself
Hey Steemit Communuity, my name is Nolan Jacobson, (theprophet0) on here. I am 14 years of age. I live in Rockford, Illinois. 
I enjoy watching sports, playing video games, and Buying and Selling Cryptocurrency. 
I have a question for you guys, how many 14 year old's do you know enjoy buying and selling Cryptocurrency? Let alone how many 14 year old's do you know that even know what Cryptocurrency is? 
Your answer is probably 0 to none! Haha. Well here I will be telling you how I was introduced to Cryptocurrency and what I plan to do with it.
How I Was Introduced To Cryptocurrencies
First of all, I love to make money. I mean, who doesn't?! So I talked to my dad's best friend Nick LaMarca (npl77) and he introduced me to Cryptocurrency. I was super confused because I had never heard of Crypotocurrency. Later on, we talked some more and I did more research and started to understand what Cryptocurrency and blockchain's are. Nick had told me to buy some Bitcoin on coinbase.com and since he knows what he is talking about I used my lawn mowing money to buy some Bitcoin. 
Nick called me a few days later and introduced me to Ethereum and he was stoked about it! So from there I bought Ethereum on GDAX.com with my Bitcoin. A few nights later it was hacked! :( So after it was hacked I shapeshifted my Ethereum to TheDAO. I was taking a pretty big gamble by doing that because I was buying TheDAO at a 60% discount and hoping that Ethereum would get hard-forked or else I would have lost my money. But hey, I like to take risks and gamble! In the end I ended up making the right gamble and I made some extra money from TheDAO. 
5 Days ago, Nick introduced me to this website (steemit.com) and I saw a huge opportunity here considering everybody here has positive energy for the most part and you can make money on your content! 
So I had to wait for 2 days because they weren't letting people register but I finally registered 3 days ago! I shapeshifted my DAO back to Bitcoin and deposited my Bitcoin on here to get SteemPower! I think this website is super awesome considering you make money for your content and no other social media's do this! In my opinion I think one day this site will be bigger than Facebook when people here about it.
What I Plan To Do With My Cryptocurrency
In the long run I am hoping from investing in Cryptocurrecy I can pay for my college tuition debt free. 
But for time being I hope I can have some fun buying and selling Cryptocurrency , enjoying Steemit and make some good content! If you liked this content, do me a favor and give me a upvote and or a comment. It will be greatly appreciated.
Until next time!
Having the awareness you have at your age sets you apart from your peers. That is alot of creativity from a 14 year old!
Definitely!
verification photo would make great
thanks. but this kind of veryfing is not enough. during recent discussion on the topic of verification, i realized that only way to do it is record videos
Maybe that will be my next post, a video. Good Idea
Have your dad show you how to do a verification photo and put it as the first photo
Awesome! Its very exciting to see the younger generation becoming more aware and interested in the many different opportunities that exist. I just turned 22 myself and can barely get friends and family to wrap their head around cryptocurrencies. Most people rather stay clueless. Coming from college myself, my guess is that you seem to really have a good head on your shoulders and may not need to go to college. You are already lightyears ahead of your peers and don't seem only invested in things that everyone else your age is concerned with. My advice is to just keep learning, keep reading most importantly, and don't let anyone discourage you. Become a self-educating learning machine, most things can be self-taught. College can really stun your growth if you're someone who doesn't need it. Its a great social experience, but more of a black hole for money. I know this isn't the type of reply you are expecting, but always keep in mind that with every decision, comes an opportunity cost. Keep killing the blogs btw!
Thanks for the response josh! I agree my famiy and friends dont understand it.. TBH i sorta like to keep it to myself because i think its cool I am like the only 15 year old that knows about this shit. My family really wants me to go to college so I might have no choice but I do agree with you. Thanks again josh!
No problem. Yea I also felt like I had no choice, but maybe things will be different as you get closer. Now, they offer amazing courses for really low prices on sites like Udemy too. Either way, I have no doubt you'll be successful. Best of luck!
indeed, I have a few projects next week with @steemdrive where I will be making 3 grand...
Glad I have such an amazing oppurtunity at such a young age.
Welcome to Steemit! GitHub
Thanks Bud!
Here's $0.00001 then. Good luck with it.
Thanks calumus!
Great to start young :) best of luck little hommie :)
Aye Paco thanks man its greatly appreciated, could you do your homie a favor and give an upvote?
Keep your hustle up and get that paper!
Forsure! You mean cryptocurrency hahah!
Good on you mate. It is people like you who will move crypto forward I think I saw another young lad on here too.
Very responsible to be thinking about finances and preparing for the future. I suspect that paper money may become obsolete within your lifetime (may be even mine). What do your parents think about crypto? I've tried explaining it to mine but they just don't get it.
Anyway best of luck, hope you achieve your goals.
Hey man, first of all thanks for the upvote! I agree with you 100% the paper money I think will loose its value completely in the near future. My dads friend actually introduced me to the cryptocurrency world and I love it! Best of luck to you too and thanks man!
Welcome @theprophet0
Thanks!
Welcome! You're already ahead of the curve of most 14 year olds I know. You'll be going places in life my friend.
Appreciate it man! Glad I was introduced to cryptocurreny and steam!
Take the minimum amount of classes, but enjoy the experience.
Save your $.
Thanks Wang!
Greetings to you aswell!
Thanks Sharon!
Forsure I already do! Lots of positive energy!
