Hey, new guy here, been into all things bitcoin for a few months (which invariably leads one here
![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)
). Been lurking for a minute, figured I'd have to do this one day but I'm not too much of a Chatty Cathy.
Experimented with day trading in bitcoin, initially attracted because of the low cost of entry, and was doing relatively well until an unfortunate day with tat.virtualmine

So, after taking a hefty bite in the ass, I've decided the profit in bitcoin lies in service. If tat.asicminer edges a little higher, going to cash out and try to grow my measly hoard of coin (4.1ish atm) by exchanging USD->BTC via GreenDot's MoneyPak. Looking at the most popular, similar service out there atm (BitInstant) I believe I can provide a much higher level of customer service at a lower cost. Weighing a service fee model vs a percentage, but all that's academic at this point. I understand I need to grow my trust on these forums and also understand that its a process and not an overnight thing.
When I'm not scouring these forums for trading research, or some understanding into some technical aspect of bitcoin (its makes my head hurt
![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif)
) I'm into gardening, particularly indoor hydroponics (was in the industry for about 4 years, equipment sales/consulting). Master Gardeners certification in progress (having to restart because of a recent move to SC). Into horticulture/organics/sustainable living even more than bitcoin, so if you are an aeroponics aficionado or a ebb and flood enthusiast drop me a line and we can palaver about it.
Nice to meet you guys, hope you'll enjoy as much as I've enjoyed these forums already without even meeting you guys
