I got $1,000 from my mom and $1,000 from my girlfriend. Then I took out credit cards with all the companies that let me. Luckily I had started building my credit nine years ago when I was 19. I was able to get $6,000 worth of credit cards. I used that money to end up making around $200,000 in the last six months. I attribute my success to reading /biz/ and /r/ethtrader and in general being an excellent NEET.

I work a side job as a cook that makes very little money, only because I like it

got into crypto in fucking december last year and went from my 550usd initial investment to over 15k now. it's so stupid. even if you have just a few hundred its so worth it

my main second income source is kucoin. you get some free money for every single person you refer, and then for every person they refer.. and so on

I always was a fucking poorfag, but this helped me climb the ranks. have an iron hand and invest NOW before its too late. don't miss out on kucoin gains. use the link in the pic and after that spam your own referral to make some free money. it's perfect for someone just trying to get into crypto. we're making it anon.
