I'm the confused kid in the corner. Help.

My story begins from being stood on a bus on the way to a rugby match. As you do, casually chatting with friends > daydream > casually chatting with friends > day dream > casually chatting with fri...(and then boom). My mate 'casually' announces he made £900 the previous night. I was hooked. You say whatttttt!!!?

This year has been a 'I don't want to live pay check to pay check' kind of year. I've been teaching my self and watching YouTube videos on all sorts, from 'make money fast online' to 'real estate'. As my mate 'casually' explains what Cryptocurrency is, my mind explodes more and more with every confusing word. Is this what I’ve been waiting for, if so, then brainstorming and rattling my head for the last 6months will have paid off. I stand there trying to figure what the hell all this means, but, im excited. A few mates laugh, then everyone gets back to daydreaming. The confusion begins, as I stand there with my mouth open in deep thought.

As the rugby match starts, we start geeking out about the camera we are using. Again, he knows more than me. Every day is a learning day, but today was high school in one day. The conversation naturally (un-naturally) goes back the obvious. So mate, ‘criptis lurrency, talk to me’, ‘No mate, its CrypticCurrency’. As he starts chatting, my wallet slowly comes out my pocket. Has he just pickpocketed me by power of the mind? Either way, I liked it. Five minutes later and I’m singed up to coinbase, then momentarily after, Steemit. 

The next 26hours of the 24hour day consist of YouTube, YouTube, YouTube, reading articles, pestering my friend and yes, more YouTube. I’m excited, nervous, determined and hungry! I do like a doughnut. 

The next night was a late one. As I lay there with my laptop open, paper everywhere, 20 empty pens and an Alaskan malamute wanting to play fetch I have that eureka moment, I found a small trend (don’t laugh) in the trading (right or wrong word I’m unsure). 

Anyway, I’m Danny, British, 25 and slightly confused. 

……..

But excited and hungry! (thoseeee doughnuts)
