entering the crypto currency invest world

in #invest7 years ago (edited)

Hi there, I´m Patrick (38) from Mannheim, Germany. I just want to share some thoughts with you. I´m interested in the german football league (Bundesliga), the german icehockey league (DEL), the NHL. Also I´m interested in guns and rifles, politics, cars, motorcycles. I play football, like mountainbiking, and so on.
I´m a normal guy, I think. ggg
Maybe my articles will be boring. Then, just skip!
But maybe there are some people outthere, whom like what I write. This is my first story... My english is not perfect, but I hope you will understand what I want to say. :-)

I often think about ways, to make some money. Not that big money, but some. I´m not a dreamer who thinks, hey, I take 100 Euros to make a million. I think, in this time we´re living in, we have to think about, how we can "store" some money. Just take a few bugs and spread them into the virtual world, for example.

I think, one day, we will not have coins or bills in our wallet. We will have only one plastic card connected to all our payment possibilities.
So I talked to my best friend. He´s very smart and always informed about the investment possibilities. A few weeks ago, we talked about some ways or possibilities, to see what will happen. We talked a few hours about some of the coins which are out there. He talked about wallets, xchanges, and where to buy virtual currencies. I´ve tried to listen, but after a few hours infront of the laptop and registering here and there, my "brain" was overloaded. Too much information. As my friend left, I´ve tried to sort all the info he shared with me. Some of his sentences were burned into my brain. And I think the most valuable sentences were: don´t listen to all the voices out there. Try to collect information. Information from professionals, dialogs in forums, videos at youtube and try to find your own way.

I think, "try to find your own way" is the most valuable hint.

I have invested some money (only a hundred of euros) years ago in shares of chinese airlines withe the result, that the costs of the account were higher than the output of the shares. Yes, it´s true. Some guys outthere made a lot of money. Don´t know how they get that big ammount of bugs to invest. It´s a lottery in my oppinion and I´m not rich enough to loose big money. So I thought about the investment in virtual currencies and how much I can spend. I spend nearly 100 Euro a month in lottery tickets. I´ve never won more than the ticket has cost. lol So I´ve decided to put that 100 euros/month in virtual currencies. Now we´re back to the point I´ve started. I logged in into one of the wallets, logged in into a crypto market place and spent the first 100 Euros in different coins. The next month I will spend another 100 Euros. I hope the time will work for me now. Maybe in 1, 2 or 3 years my money is doubled. But maybe it´s gone. Remember: It´s a lottery... in a different way.

Big thanks to my dude, Gregor. :-)

I think you are better investing in Cryptocoins than in lottery tickets. I support you in future to make more than double of your Investment :) . Luckydigger is a Steemian and a good Guy too. He knows a lot about Cryptocurrencies. Maybe he can help you to choose some Coins.
