Bitcoin Moms
When trading crypto-currency is the best way to support your kids

Every morning around 10:30 a.m., Susan, a mom in her mid-30s, drops off her 4-year-old son at school in South London and heads to a nearby “greasy spoon.” Sitting at “her table” in the corner, wearing an oversized wool sweater and glasses with bright green tortoise-shell frames, she orders her usual cup of milky tea and chocolate croissant and fires up her laptop. She’ll stay here until her son gets out of school, eyes fixed on the fluctuating numbers and graphs on her monitor, buying, then selling, then buying again — repeat ad infinitum.
A few months ago, Susan was a care worker at a primary school in North London, working with children with learning disabilities for less than $9 an hour. But in October, with the toll of long hours, unpaid overtime and an excruciating commute on public transport, she quit. Since then, she claims to have made more than $5,000, or as she says, “More money than I’d ever earned in my life!”
The source of her riches: Bitcoin.
“I don’t wake up sweating, afraid or stressed anymore,” she says. “Bitcoin [trading] has given me a new lease on life.”
Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past few months, you’ve probably noticed that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies like Litecoin, Ethereum and Ripple have become big deals. Once the sole province of the deep web, internet libertarians and tech startup guys, crypto has entered the mainstream. In fact, it’s become so mainstream that banks and hedge funds are looking at ways it can be used to finance pension plans, healthcare and college education. Not surprisingly then, this boom in popularity has been — for the moment at least — incredibly lucrative. To wit, in 2016, you could buy a bitcoin for less than $500; today, one bitcoin is worth more than $11,000.like and follow me
