Hey buddy hope you're settling into Indiana okay. I can imagine it's a bit of a change going from AZ to IN. When you talked about the hot girls I would say that seems about right the warmer states seem to have the pretty girls adn they seem to flock to Arizona.
I finally signed up for whale shares. I had to wait a while and finally got another email to essentially plead my case and beg to be let on, it said something about witnesses approving you. If you got any pull get me in there if you can.
I've been dabbling with smoke. It seems like a cool platform and a lot of great people but shit there's only so much I can post about weed. While I enjoy partaking, I normally wait until the evenings I like to have a productive day and being in an illegal state I can't grow so there's not a whole lot of content i can create over there. I'm just gonna start posting my normal type stuff over there and people can love it or hate it.
Not too much new with me, still trying to settle in to my new routine. Hit up ecom chicago last weekend which was pretty cool. Wound up meeting up with a youtube subscriber of mine yesterday for coffee, he's a web designer so I think we may trade skills I'm gonna help him get a youtube channell up and running and he's gonna do some web design for me.
Outside of that kinda same old same old for me .
Hopefully you get to play some ball here soon and looking for yourward to your posts about the upcomming hackathon
I haven't even posted on Smoke yet. The only thing I could really post on there is some of my experiences and sort of funny stories and then my thoughts on Cannibis legalization and investment thoughts on the matter. When that is enough for about 10 posts or so but I wouldn't be able to post over there all the time. Scorum would be the same. Talking about basketball....etc. I might do that some and then double post that stuff here and on WhaleShares as well.
I would still like to hit up one of the Michigan beaches this year. I know it will be cold but even if we got a day that was 65 degrees I would still like to go and all that. I'm actually kind of blown away that we met up a couple of weeks ago. Time is starting to fly on me which worries me.
Hey buddy, I'm definiately down to meetup again and hitup the beaches. I know what you mean about time flying. After leaving my business I was like okay I'm gonna take a week or two to do nothing andjust kinda decompress maybe spend some time in the city walking around, taking some pictures, just doing fun stuff.
Well I'm a bit of a workaholic and I'm also somewhat concerned with getting some money comming in so I hadn't really done that, I've been busy working, but not necessarily very efficiently. I feel like I've kinda pissed away the past few weeks. The phrase don't confuse movement with action comes to mind. I'm moving a lot but not really getting much done or atthe very least not doing the things I need to be doing.
I got somewhat inspired after eCom Chicago so as soon as I finoish this reply I'm gonna stop pissing aroundon Steemit andReddit and Smoke here and get some "real" work done. Second week of November I'm heading out of town for a wedding and then to Aruba for a week but aside from that I'm pretty open schedule wise.
As for smoke. I started posting some stuff on there, weed related stuff but like you said even though I do smoke I don't really have a ton to talk about weed related. I'm just gonna cross post my normal stuff over there and post relevant weed stuff whenI can. I'm actually excited about getting on whale shares. I just submitted my about me and bts address to verify hopefully I get let on here soon, been waiting for a while.
I know how you feel. I hit it decently hard with the content creation but when I have a full day of it the amount I can make in a day off this right now doesn't equate to a full days earnings by any means at least not now. That is always tough to come to grips with because we might say, well if I can make $100, $200, $300 / day then it is worth it....etc.
Plus I'm losing subs on my YouTube channel where I talk about crypto. So many people got their ass beat in crypto that they want to tune it out so viewership is low.
It will be a major grind to keep going and trying to build a bigger and bigger name for myself. The one thing that it has help on is consulting work for EOS related tokens that companies want created so I'm getting some work from that. Then when I'm in San Francisco for this next hackathon I will likely look like a person who must know something. :-)
Hopefully we could plan something for next week to go to lake Michigan.
Yeah I know what you mean about crypto content, products and business when markets are down. I was doign a lot of crypto tee shirts a while back and it was amazing, my sales activity mirroed the markets. When prices were up sales were up, when prices tanked sells went away completely.
I was actually talking to a guy yesterday who wanted to start a business inthe crypto space. I told him right now he will have absolutely no success with the direction he's trying to go. I said I can't tell you not to do it because if thigns pick back up and you've already got something ready to go while others are scrambling to hop on the fad train you'll do very well, but I said right now the general public doesn't care and even a lot of people who in the past were into crypto, many of them have tuned out.
I'd love to see you start another Youtube Channel that's about non crypto stuff. You're a fascinating dude, talking to you at the beach that day was an awesome experience hearing about you leaving Indiana to move out to AZ and a lot of the stuff you did out there. You're entrepreneurial experiences. I think you have a lot of info to share on a lot of subjects and I think you could attract a whole new audience outside of just crypto, heck could even help grow crypto adoption as one channel brings in the mainstream people and you can then kinda slowly start to introduce them to it.
Just something to think about, I know it takes an incredibly long time to get montized so it would be more of a longterm plan.
Well initially I would have liked the channel to be "making money online" Which would heavily involve crypto and then lifestyle related stuff about me and the traveling. So it would be an all in one channel kind of thing. Because a lot of these guys who were doing workout related stuff turned a lot of it into business and lifestyle as well.
I would love to be able to do that but I kind of feel like I would need other people around me filming and being part of my team....etc and I feel like my best bet would be to hunker down and live like I'm broke and keep building positions in crypto and then when the next surge hits I can hit it in a better stride and look like a bigger authority.
I hate to get triggered by others content but it really did seem that the people who knew the least about crypto were getting the biggest followings in the last boom. I still just shake my head at the followings DataDash ended up with giving his nonsense charting bullshit. People are really into the fake technical analysis which is annoying to me.
It is kind of like we said before....... there is always this worry that we will seem like a total fraud sell out guy if we are selling courses or charging for things but to tell you the truth it is 100 times more valuable then a lot of the people who just jump in there and pretend to be experts and just make stuff up like Tanner J Fox.
