Death by Cube?!

As an IT engineer I sit in front of my PC with a chain to my IM, email, and phone. Hey, can I help you calculate the actual compute needed?!?! It's everything I saw in those Army ads in the 80s. After working for some trading and payment companies, I saw all this money flowing around. Heck, we even used green Ethernet cable to show where the money flows in and out. That got me interested in Bitcoin.

My coin experience started a little while ago. I figured Bitcoin is to be good to be true and started my new hobby. I hoped to find the flaw and shoot down yet another money scheme. I slapped an AMD 5700 and GTX 580 in an old computer. I loaded windows and started opening accounts on all the major mining hubs. Fast forward a few months and I was trading coins on Poloniex. This was where I turned my coins into Bitcoin. This was so exciting but very much the wild west. I never found my flaw. :)

Right now, I focus mainly on how to secure my financial future now, but it has other and more important things in store for us. SteemIt is just once such example. It pays for your knowledge and insight. A true knowledge economy, but more of that later.

Let's circle back to the cubicle. They suck. Work is boring, and I get called on nights and weekends. Cubes are always some sort of depressing realtor grey. Michael Bolton is our white noise. I have now realized that there is another way to supplement my income. It's certainly not a way to become a millionaire overnight, but with smart planning, you could get there. I want to show my son that there's more to life than a cubicle in his future. Responsibly diversifying into the cryptocurrency space will help.

Hopefully, the information I share will be helpful. Things I have learned and anything else that may be helpful. I started with spare parts, so I know that anyone can do this with a little know-how.

Thanks for listening and happy mining/trading!
