Who am I and what did I do recently?

Hello everyone on Steemit
I am Sterling Vu, a web developer working as freelancer at PeoplePerHour.com since 2013(I no longer work there)

I earned alot of experiences on this freelancer platform with alittle money, but then I left and build my own WordPress development team on ThemeForest.net

This is another marketplace I have been working on for over 4 years and not it is already 6 years since I registered an account!

I also archive a pretty good result here until now

Now there are too many competitors come, the quality standard getting higher and higher and for some other reasons I decided to invest my time in to something else like selling T-Shirts on sunfrog.com, teespring.com and teechip.com. I am not very success on those business.

My skills:

• Html & CSS
• PHP, Javascript
• WordPress, Shopify
• Server, hosting, domain
• Linux, ubuntu
• A litle Photoshop
• Start learning to write..

How did I enter Cryptocurrency World?

Up on oneday, one of my best friend(he's very success on both of mobile marketing and Cryptocurrency) phone me and said "Hey bro, I have something to tell you, this is very interesting and you should join and play with", I answer yes and after a cup of coffee he show me what he did with bitcoin and cryptocurrency, and my digital money business start from here.
After the coffee with my friend, I came home and start researching, reading news, blog, watching youtube video about bitcoin and cryptocurency, I was very excited that time, immediately that evening I create account on Bittrex, Blockchain.org, Remitano(where I can buy bitcoin from my local bank).
In the next morning I ask my friend(who had coffee with me the day before) go coffee again and give me some guide on Bittrex, and trading .. I start buying Bitcoin, that time I bought 3BTC. Then as suggested from my friend I used all of my 3BTC to buy ANT.. well and I start hoping from that time.
A week later, when ANT raise high to over 0.014 I earn about 2BTC more, I feel awesome!!! then I bought some other coins like DGB, BAT, LGD.. when I they were going up.. and I hope I could earn alot of money then. I also borrow money from friends to invest in to alt coins about another 2BTC.

How did I lose big money(my big money)?

Now about a month later, when the whole market massive drop, my BTC total when down and down everyday:

Red and red.. only RED
I really learned a big lesson after loosing alot of money. I wanted to sell at low price and quit, but my friend and many big boy tell keep it.

My lesson are:

• Think bigger, see wider to find new opportunities and start as soon as I can
• Know where to stop to keep money before it's gone.
• Follow big boy and learn from them
