In this episode, with blockchain education and crypto education, you can learn how to trade digital currencies and use them to your advantage.
"The reason I do the meetups is to educate people. And most of the time, there are newbies that come, and they don't know much. They're interested, and I don't know where it goes from there, but then you have to educate kids. Kids are the future. They need to understand the monetary system.”

He is the founder of My Office Mobile, an accounting software company, and has over 30 years of experience in the tech industry.
