What you need to know before reading this guide.

 

First off, I don't manage anyone else's Crptocurreny, and you should manage your own. Cryptocurrency is impossible to recover if stolen, due to it's decentralized nature.

 

Any investments made in cryptocurrency should only be a part of your overall investment strategy. Cryptocurrency has incredible potential, but it can fluctuate drastically.

 

This guide is not for the purpose of suggesting specific cryptocurrencies or exchanges. But only provides a guide in where to get started.

 

I am going to be completely transparent in this guide about. I have made an incredible return on my personal investments in cryptocurrency, and I am NO rocket

My Story

 

 

 

I started looking at Bitcoin in the summer, 2015, and did a

lot of research into it.

My background is in Computer Science, I.T. technology,

so I understand software technology very well.

 

I also worked for several years as a Financial Advisor, and hold a mutual fund licence, so I am very experienced in the investment area.

 

 

Needless to say, I dissected everything I could learn about the whole idea of Crytpocurrency.

 

 

Being that cryptocurrency was very new, I decided to NOT buy in. That summer Bitcoin was worth just below $300 each.

My Story

 

 

 

I started looking at cryptocurrency again in the summer of 2016, and decided to start buying into it.

 

 

But first I had to find a process of buying, and trading. But most importantly, I wanted to make sure that IF I put any money into it, that I had a process of sell it, and getting it back into my bank account!

 

 

Being that cryptocurrency is not regulated by any

governing body, and usually stored in other countries, I did my homework to make sure I wouldn't lose my investments.

 

 

That summer Bitcoin was worth just under $600 each. As I am writing this, Bitcoin is worth just under $5500 each! 5

Now you are a Cryptocurrency trader :)

 

This is my overall investment advise, and it not specific to Crytpocoins.

 

Spread your investments into many funds. Unlike mutual funds, Cryptocoins do not have a risk tolerance attached to it, historic rate of return, and have oversight.

 

So you do your homework, and I'd suggest investing in 'Blue Chip' type Coins, like Bitcoin, and in 'Penny Stocks', like Omisego. See my Primary Picks.

 

Keep track of your investments, see my slide in regards to 'GravyChain' to see how easy it is from your phone.

 

Crytpocoins are long term investments, so buy, hold, repeat. If you want short term investments, you should look at traditional investments.

 

Join my Facebook group. You can join in weekly conversations about what's trending. Get my monthly picks, and see how my previous picks are preforming,

 

You can also share in success stories. The best part of being part of this, is

75

seeing amazing things people are doing to change their lives with Cryptocoins.

 

My primary Portfolio Coin picks

These are the 'blue chip' & 'B class' coins that I'd suggest holding in your portfolio. Other Cryptocoin experts will disagree, but this what I invested in, and continue to do so. Plus it's only 10 Coins to start.

 

*This is not financial advice, and all investments at your own risk.

 

 

1. Bitcoin 28.55% of your portfolio or approx. 0.05 Coins

 

2. Ethereum 21.53% of your portfolio or approx 0.50 Coins

 

3. OmiseGO 16.76% of your portfolio or approx 12 Coins
