Wanting to clear some things up on my from my last post
Hey family it has been absolutely amazing replying to the uplifting comments left by you all and it is greatly appreciated. Though I felt it would not be fair if I didn't lay out some facts that were left out that could lead people astray. If someone is to make a life-changingg decision based on my experience I want them to know all of the details.
My previous profession was as a Physical Therapist. As you know down in Florida there is and high demand therapist, so even though I left I could have a job just as quickly as I could dial a phone. The risk of being unemployed during a crypto bear was slim so I was always pretty safe.
I own 3 passive income companies that are run by employees ( family) and they provide a healthy source of liquidty monthly.
Even before my debt was paid off, me and my wife live VERY lean. It's not that we can't spend more we just dont see the need to do so.
We were already living solely off of my wifes elementary school teacher income. So taking mine off of the table did not hurt as much one would assume.
I was lucky right out of the gate. I was blessed with a huge cushion and was afforded a safety net and allowed time to screw up a bit.
I hope this does not take away from what was accomplished but at the same time I hope it has everyone re-evaluate any life altering decisions that may be on the table.
As always if you have anyquestions feel free to ask, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.
Wonderful. It's good to diversify. I'm thinking of opening a supermarket.
Very nice. Where at?

I see it as a great achievement and the fact that you’ve laid out the details here add to it rather than take abybthing away from it. You were not stupid or reckless and always had a fall back plan if it didn’t work out. I don’t see it as luck (although I’m sure it played a part) but a series of calculated decisions that paid off! Congrats
Now if EOS would just pick up a bit....
Appreciate you. Just sit back and wait on EOs, it’s been almost a year and you have yet to see anything yet.
I think you are right! EOS has a lot more to give and with airdrops, who knows!
The planned airdrop economy is going to make some noise. You see how well it worked on the eth chain.
EOS is slightly different as blockone has committed to investing a lot of money in start ups that develop on EOS. These will effectively have free money, so will be incentivised to give away their tokens to existing EOS holders! Fingers crossed.
All I know is that we are going to be in for s good time.
Good on you for bringing some people down to Earth,
Were some people saying "If he can make $1m so easily, surely so can I!? I'm gonna quit my shitty job immediately"??
I think most people should live by this:
"Even before my debt was paid off, me and my wife live VERY lean. It's not that we can't spend more we just dont see the need to do so."
I've had my car for 7 years, I could afford to buy a brand new one but my car works great so why would I need to?
We as a community are responsible for each other even if its by proxy. As for living lean, I broke my leg in college and had no way to work to pay for rent gas and food. you quickly learn what you do and don;t need to get by.
You doing great all over i ll call you a bussiness tycoon .
Just s regular guy that likes to go for it.
Doesn't take anything away from the accomplishment IMO. Maybe just puts more of the W on your wife for letting this happen and carrying you through the beginning. I think that is where a great chunk of the luck lies, in having a (life) partner that is willing to let you go for it and has the faith in you. Keep treating her to vacations and what not, she deserves it. Not every missus is as understanding and supportive as the ones we have. I find that to be the factor most dependent on luck in your story. Timing can be attributed to luck, but also to balls and brain to get in then. I knew about crypto for sometime and didnt get in because of a lack of the b and b. I wsnt unlucky to put myself in a similar position, but not brave/smart enough. I think people that call early traders lucky for getting in early fail to give credit where it is due.
The missus really is a great one to have, she never adds any pressure to the situation. Her trust is like fuel to the fire within so even with B&B I doubt I would be as far without her.
Mhh, missed your previous post, so will need to read it. But what I can already tell, is that you have been taking a calculated risk! You had a fall back scenario and worked and saved hard before to make this change possible!
Yea last post I kind of revealed that I may not be a chump lol. I felt I needed to add this as it is the responsible thing to do.
i need to re read the last post so that i may come to know what it was all about
Its a little insight into me.

It is always a pleasure. Ill be posting more on my thought processes and how I generally operate. I will never tell you what to buy but i will debate you until one of us proves the other wrong. That way we all learn. I will be contacting you on TG.
Sure, i have no problem about that....Many many thanks. I will be waiting :)
Do you have a telegram group ?
Thank you for this. Most people would've jumped and quit their jobs without knowOMG the full details only to come back and blame you if they didn't succeed with Crypto.
Moral of the Story: Don't take unnecessary risks without a strong cushion
Am happy it worked out well for you though
As I was reading the comments I felt maybe they thought my cheeks were flapping in the wind and i couldn't have that. and " Moral of the Story: Don't take unnecessary risks without a strong cushion" pretty much nails it.
Greetings from Venezuela. I invite you to take a look at my first OpenMic post and support me: D and thanks in advance

Risking your whole life for investment isn't clever but as someone have said "you wont fly if you never try" (or something like that lol)You had plan B all the time but even if somebody doesn't it's not over since sometimes risking a lot can pay off.As I've said you shouldn't risk too much but If I had opportunity I would.Don't judge me haha.Congrats one more time for achieving that much man :)
Risk rewards always play a factor in life, and that is in every aspect. Now how much you risk can determine the rewards earned.
Exactly.That's what I was trying to say but sadly sometimes my english doesnt let me express my thoughts the way I would like to(shame on me but I keep learning)Btw the whole thing with Daniel Magical is done.Dlive wont support him.They had a talk with other two youtubers and they know everything allready :)
Great job man. I’m glad he is out.
It's mostly their contribution but Im proud of myself anyway because I did everything I possibly could to help the whole process to succeed :)
