Hello, I'm Maxim a 20 years old student from Belgium.

I'm studying IT and I'm interested in economics and politics.
(look at my other post to see how corrupted our world is, how the media is twisting our minds with misinformation.)

IT and economics: it started out as an interesting hobby and it became a money making lifestyle

Because of my IT qualities and economic interests I've started going into the cryptocurrency world.
I've have some positive experience in the stock market fromt he past, I made my way into it with tech stocks, which did very well the past years.
I really love the risky bets, it's exciting and it can give unbelievable results, I'm not so much playing the long game although that's what I would do as soon as I make a fortune.
Because I like risks and volatility, and like big growths in small periods, I'm going to give my best on cryptocurrencies from now on.

Things I've learned so far

• Avoid selling with loss as much as you can!
  it's better to wait for an upward trend and sell on the next highest point, selling on a low point is useless so don't panic!
  
  
• Stop talking about things just do it!
  I've really missed out on the greatest opportunities, after telling so many friends about it.
  Watchlists are a great tool but stocks/cryptocurrencies in your watchlist are not going to yield you any profits.
  You're supposed to buy in order to achieve greatness.
  
  
• Never buy crap, even if it's hyped or at it's lowest point!
  
  
• Dare to invest big amounts of money!
  You don't necessarily need to put it all into 1 and the same thing, spread it around into that you believe to be undervalued.
  Every market has an upgoing trend in the long term, if you compare prices now with those in the golden years before the crisis, you can see that almost everything is at or around an all time high, in 2 years from now things will look better again.
  So don't hessitate to put your savings into stocks or cryptocurrencies
  
  
  
  

Today and in the future

I'm a self-employed student at the moment, that means I'm studying a full program in the ICT (bachelor studies) and I'm working at my own beside that.
I'm the proud owner of a small business called Maximum Repair, that soon will become a small company with other employees if clients keep coming to me at this pace!
I'm planning to invest as good as all of the money I've saved so far, and as I like the risks, I will spend it on the volatile cryptocurrency market.

To be more specific I'm going to seek out for the small marcet cap cryptocurrencies that have potential but still need to break through (think Netflix in 2010).
I'm going to spend a lot of time actively discussing upcomming currencies that have this type of potential on Steemit. I'll probably start a discussion very soon to hear suggestions from others and share my thoughts and questions with the community, so stay tuned!

I would also like to give a shout out to "Young & Investing", it's a fairly new startup from a Belgium student in the economics.
I'm following his advice daily on his Youtube Channel, his Facebook Page, and I'm also active in his Facebook Group.
The guy is a good econome, he is from Belgium just like me, and his knowledge of crypto currencies is amazing.
Here is his latest video about IOTA a very interesting project, with lots of potential for the future.
