My Introduction

in #introduction7 years ago

I am relatively new to Steemit. I entered the world of Cryptocurrency back in April of 2015 when one of my professors at Emory University introduced us to Bitcoin. We were getting our MBAs and the class was Emerging Technologies. He suggested that we buy a few, and forget about them. Well I bought a few... but I was watching... and waiting for the floor to drop out and got rid of the majority of them until I only had 3 left in the middle of 2017.
Finally I buckled up and learned to enjoy the roller coaster.

Luckily, my wife has been open and trusted me to explore:

Since then, I have invested in other alt coins and I REALLY enjoy learning about the developers, their goals and objectives and buying in. I finally introduced my family and friends around Thanksgiving and they have been very excited and appreciative.

I have since decided to utilize my STEEM better and branch out.

I am a introverted extrovert.... :-)
I won't approach you if I don't know you, as I don't want to annoy you.
But if you introduce yourself, I'll engage you in just about any conversation.
One of the goals coming out of getting my MBA was to improve my socialization skills so that I would better develop and maintain a network outside of my current family and friends. (Easier said and done).
I got my degree in 2015 and now without school... and I sold my IT Company so I don't meet and mingle with my clients and employees anymore... so now I am left to my own devices... and that's not good.

That's my MBA class picture... now you can see why I am an introvert!!!

I have a dream of ONE DAY having one of my screenplays produced and actually making it to the big screen.
So I am hoping that some of my investments into cryptocurrency will give me an opportunity to help fund a project.
Check out my website where I am beginning to try to market and increase awareness about my projects.

My dream is to show my two sons that you can do anything you want in life if you are persistent and believe in yourself.

Don't worry that's a Targa Roof and I love my boys more than ANY material possession. We were making memories!
They are now 15 and 14 years old... and I wouldn't put them up there now LOL!!!

Thanks for your time... take a moment and virtually introduce yourself.
Hopefully this will be the start of a network... and who knows...maybe one day you can say you knew that introverted-extrovert when his movie was nothing more than a dream.

Best to all of you and may your dreams be realized!
