Hi,
Thanks for reading. First off, before talking about myself I'll just give a shout-out and thanks to who is the reason I joined STEEMIT at this time. Jerry - your videos are great and I'm sure you'll be a great asset to this community.
So, meanwhile, back to my story.
I'm in the UK but have lived in Germany, Boston (USA) and Singapore, and travelled all over the world for most of my life.
I'm a musician and self taught in drums, piano and guitar. I've played guitar and drums in bands and had some amazing gigs all over the UK and abroad.
I'm a techie - I've always been into computers and usually build my own PCs and use several operating systems (Mac, Windows, Linux) and various browsers (Firefox, Opera, Safari, Chrome, IE) and have build over 1000 websites and helped a lot of people use the Internet to market themselves and their businesses.
I'm a trader - stocks and shares and Forex.
About 5 years ago I got in to Bitcoin and was mining using ASICs but the technology grew quicker than my budget did so I stopped and focused on Forex.
Recently I started learning about all the current crypto currencies and move some Bitcoins into Ethereum and while researching ETH I realised for less than £2K I could build a mining rig that could earn me over £300 per month. So started building one.
Being a trader my first thought was to leverage the ETH and take 50% in cash and push the other 50% into other Cryto currencies.
While doing more research I found Jerry Banfield and his fun and interesting Youtube videos. Jerry indicated that he was moving out of DASH and in to something new and in one of his paid courses would share what that is. Knowing how much of a content generator Jerry is I figured - just the heads-up on where he's moving is worth the price of his course, so I paid and found out he was getting in to STEEM, so here I am.
I love learning and I love helping people, so over the years I've had over 10,000 posts in several different forums, so I do like the community that a good forum can create.
Anyway - that's a quick intro to me. Over time I'll share some stories with you that include:
The time I went to a strip bar after one of my bands gigs and had everyone in the place watching what I had the girls doing for me.
The time I abseiled from a helicopter onto a boat of drug traffickers.
The times I've met the Queen of England
The Famous musicians I've met
The time I did disaster relief in Haiti
and more......
