Pretty sure today was my day. I guess I've been holding coin and paying close attention for ~4 months now.
First was while I was getting my hair cut and styled (I'm stepping up my image. Going to look like a BOSS).
I was lucky, I went to a barber and asked him how he felt about styling my hair to look like Patrick Bateman (as played by Christian Bale) in American Psycho. He was real upfront and said that wasn't his bag. So he suggests I set an appointment with the lady who taught him to cut. The problem is she had 'just' gone independent and had no sign at her place. Nor could he supply me with her phone number. He just knew her name and that she accepted appointments via her fb profile. So I pull her up on my Android and send her a message. To my surprise she replied within five minutes, and even more surprising she was willing to see me right away. I think the challenge appealed to her.
So I swing over and sit down in her chair and not a minute later my Bitcoin Paranoid alarm rings. Well of course I told her what that was and what bitcoin was, etc, etc. I told her I'd pay her however she liked, but no matter what I'd help her get an Android wallet (Mycelium) and give her some bitcents to get her toes wet. I'm pretty sure she'll be accepting bitcoin for cuts next time I see her. Nice!
But that was nothing compared to what happened when I got home.
So there is this website,
http://freedomforfelonz.com/ and the owner is this really positive guy named Reese. I'm interested in the coping mechanisms of felons (I am one), so I filled out the questionnaire and gave him a phone call. He called me back around 7pm. He and his site specialize in motivating felons and providing them entrepreneurial opportunities. I spoke to him for
52 minutes (longest phone call I've been on since idk when), and not once did he bother to tell me about what opportunities he might have available for me. Why? Because I was telling him all about bitcoin and the opportunities I'd already identified. By the end of the call his mind was blown and HE was the one who had been motivated and mobilized.
How cool is that? I called a felon who specializes in motivating other felons and spurring them towards success, and I completely reversed the roles and gave him more motivation and opportunity!
I love bitcoin.
He's downloading his first wallet 'now' so I can send him some bitcents, and he's going to call me back in a week to report on all he's learned!
So I guess I'd just been educating myself on bitcoin long enough that I was able to easily articulate the basics.
And my bitcoin enthusiasm is at an ALL TIME HIGH, so I'm happy to tell anyone willing to listen!
So is ~4 months about the average before bitcoin just spews out of your mouth?
