Hello!.... It's Me.....

1. I am new to the Cryptocurrency gig… but already doubled my money

When I say doubled my money, don’t get too excited for me – I went in with $2000 AUD which I originally used to buy Pivx, then sold and now own Ethereum, and I managed to get up to $4000 AUD – at which point I cashed my original $2000 back out into my bank account. Some more experienced Cryptocurrency users (is there a better name to describe that?!) may be cringing at the fact that I withdrew so soon, but I just wanted to have my original money back so now I can just play around with the profit. My husband @rlamasb is the one who got me into Cryptocurrency, he is an expert, and I am the complete opposite – over here in the corner wanting to buy Dogecoin just because I love dogs and I think the icon is cute!

On that note, I am here because I want to start taking Cryptocurrency more seriously. I want to make the best possible choices to be able to get the most out of it, so I am planning to use Steemit to gain more knowledge to do that, and then hopefully share some things that I learn in the process.

2. I work for a credit card company, in customer service/sales (is there even a difference anymore?).

Probably not one of the most enviable jobs in the world. If you enjoy constantly navigating through a sea of anger and disappointment, stroking customers’ egos and having a good bitch session with your colleagues, then this would be a great job for you. Having said that, there are some really nice conversations to be had – and I do enjoy helping people to get the best possible value from their financial product.

One massive perk for me is that I work from home – so I can (quite literally, If I ever wanted) roll from my bed to my desk. It’s pretty advantageous that I can start the day looking dishevelled, have a shower on my lunch break, put some make up on during my last break, and finish the day looking relatively human. I also have one super cute furry work colleague, who sometimes comes to fall asleep in my lap during the day.

3. I am going through some good changes, I think this might be part of growing up…

When I say growing up, I’m already an adult…. I’m 27, but I think I’m getting to that stage when you’re moving from your 20s into your 30s and you kind of feel like you should be taking life a little more seriously. I’m focusing on all kinds of new things at the moment that I didn’t really pay too much attention to earlier, like quitting smoking, trying to save money, going to the gym, eating healthier, cooking more often, trying to be a better wife, being happier and generally being more responsible.

I am excited to be here, to learn more about steemit and crytocurrency and hopefully read some blogs/share some posts about things that interest me like relationships, cooking, travel, illustration, languages, sales etc.

If you guys have any advice for me as a new user, I'd love to hear it!
