When I first learned of Bitcoin it was $7 Canadian. I was intrigued and started doing a little digging. I was only a few steps away from investing $1000 but was intimidated by the new technology. I let fear get the best of me and I didn't buy. Over the years I watch it grow and have been kicking myself the whole way up.

Today that $1000 would be worth over ONE MILLION CANADIAN. $1101600 to be exact.

The big banks keep telling you it's going away and that it's a fraud. Bitcoin is nearing a decade of proven security, dependability, and wealth growth. It's been the best performing investment year after year, and for good reason.

For those who aren't already doing so, educated yourself on Bitcoin and Blockchain technology in general. We are at the beginning of what the internet was in it's early stages. 

This is the biggest chance you or I will most likely ever have to make these kind of gains and to get in this early on something so revolutionary. Learn how to safely invest and use two factor authentication everywhere you can. 

Everyone should own some Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency in this day and age. Grow your savings instead of letting them devalue in FIAT dollars and the upcoming downturn in real estate and stock markets.

Get your money out of the Banks.
