I have been on steemit for about 3 weeks now and it has been very interesting.
I used the first weeks to try to understand the platform. Now I think its time to make an real introduction of me as an person.
My name is Lasse Ehlers, I am 38 years old, living in Copenhagen, Denmark. I have been studying Economics at Copenhagen University and are holdning an master degree in economics. I started my carrier by working as an IT chief back in 1997-2000, for an company that worked with political strategy and such.
I after that had a few jobs for government administrations, like the science ministry of Denmark, the main prosecutor of Denmark and others.
At the age of 26 I decided that I wanted to be an fulltime musician. Yes, I know its an radical carrier change attempt, but I wanted to do something different in life. So I began to build an rental business for rehearsal rooms in central Copenhagen. The idea was that the business would potentially finance my carrier as an musician. I succeed to make this business profitable and running with low input of time on my side. So in 2005-2006 I had time to make my music and be an fulltime musician.
Then I meet 2 woman in one year, that both got pregnant with me.
It was a big mess, as the first one left me while she was pregnant and it really blew my life. So I never got to make the music I planned and after some years, I decided to end this plan to be an musician. I was married some years to the second woman and then that ended. Fortunately I am now seeing my son, from the second relationship, unfortunately I dont see my daughter from the first relationship.
Since then I have been more or less in constant person crisis, due to the complicated family situation. Its really hard to loose contact with a child! I have worked in temporary jobs and tried to start different start-ups. I was working seriously on making an peer to peer lending company, but when I saw bitcoin in around april 2013, I stopped the peer to peer lending project I was working on and began to spend a lot of time researching everything connected to cryptocurrencies.
Today I am not sure which direction I want to go, I have different ideas, like:
- making an cryptocurrency exchange in Denmark.
- going back to work in a government job.
- being an steemit blogger.
- designing new economically systems based on cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.
- Something completely different connected with the freedom movement.
In other words I am in unknown territory, with all these new amazing possibilities that cryptocurrencies and blockchain have brought.
I am open to change and I definitely need to find the best project for me personally to work on. At the moment I am in an exploring fase, just keeping up with the new ideas and possibilities can, easily take up the time.
I hope this introduction give some valuable information about me as a person and I hope this steemit venture will last for some years or more. Its very exciting to follow the posts and the development of steem and related services.
Happy steeming.
