#introduceyourself Hello Steemians!

First, let me start off with this: I don't know how why the picture is sideways, so yeah.

Other than that, lets begin.

My name is Marco. I am 19 years old and I live in South Jersey. I recently got on Steemit about a week ago and began to post some crypto TA but the crypto market isn't where I started in terms of following a specific market.

It all started when I was in highschool. For the first two years I went to school along with running track and playing soccer. Back then I played soccer for years, and other than that for now I just watch sports. In the span of two years, I wasn't really focusing on school work too much, so my grades reflected that and I didn't get too many good scores. During that time I also played videogames a lot, so that didn't help. After the two years going into junior year, I realized something important. It was the question of: why I am focusing so much on other things that will not help me succeed in the future? (Not to discourage anyone who is trying to make it with videogames like on twitch, its just that I didn't really want to stream during the time). I still watch twitch channels sometimes like Ninja but in moderation lol.

Going into junior year I gradually adopted the mindset of knowing that I could do better, and I eventually did do better. I got decent scores, somehow I feel like I played my position in soccer better than the previous two years. Around this time I was missing something though, I didn't have any sources of income yet, like a job so I began to look for one. I eventually found one during the beginning of senior year.

I then began to think about other ways to make money. I looked online. I immediately thought about the stock market and started to do a lot of research on how to trade stocks and everything. I saw some people like Tim Sykes trade stocks, and thought "Wow, this isn't too difficult! Let me just put some money into Robinhood and start banking!"

As you can guess that didn't turn out well, especially with a brokerage like Robinhood for actively trading. During the end of senior year and half of my freshman year of college I lost a good chunk of the money I put into trading. I was extremely annoyed, and then I began to actually take time to learn to trade.

To this day, I made it back, and am up overall in the green, but not up too much. As of about a year ago I began hearing about crypto though, and started to research it as well. So as of right now I am solely focusing on trading crypto, I might start trading the stock market again if there is more opportunities.

Lets talk about what I plan to do now to prepare in the future though. For a while I have been watching entrepreneurs on youtube like Tai Lopez, Tanner J Fox, etc. I noticed they have all have one thing in common: they all know how to make money through an online business.

So as of today, I am not only just focusing on crypto, but also on creating a stable online business. Furthermore, I have been researching how to do drop shipping with Shopify, which is basically E-commerce. My plan in the future is to have drop shipping as a primary source of income, and then to take a portion of that and trade the markets. (Instead of just trading crypto only).

Did I mention that I am into cars? I will post sometimes about cars and as of recent I went to the car show in Philadelphia. My dream car is a Lamborghini so here is a pic of a yellow Aventador S. (Another sideways picture, idk why this is lol)

Overall, I am still in college, pursuing a degree in Computer Science, but I am willing to take some risks to see if it pays off. Crypto has been working out for me as of now, but I am willing to and I am going to expand into drop shipping soon by taking a course on it.

Let me know in the comments if you're into trading crypto or in E-commerce right now!
