Hi Jeff, thanks for being a role model for entrepreneurs in a world where they are vilified and for opening my mind to the idea of why a deflationary future is the only way forward.
I'll be graduating college soon with a degree (BS in Exercise Science) I have no interest in and I really don't want to enter into a long-term career in this space (predom. cardiac & pulm. rehab). I have no intention to go back to get another degree and taking on more debt anytime soon. I'm disgusted with just how puppy-mill the modern education system has become. I want to deliver value through BTC but just am not sure how to find buyers of my time.
I have found more passion in economics and BTC through reading and listening to books on my own time and through explaining what BTC is to friends and family. I wish I could go back in time to switch to an economics degree, but then tbh I probably would've become a Keynesian and never have fallen down the BTC rabbit hole. Funny how life works.
Anyways, I would love to find a job/career in BTC. What would be your recommendation for breaking into the BTC-job ecosystem? I'm not really interested in coding, but should I start learning how to code? Should I continue to focus on educating people ("sweat equity" i call it)? I am fascinated by the discovery/invention that BTC and just how thermodynamically sound it is, how it follows the laws of the universe, and how it will continue to eat all the energy in the closed system we call the universe. What are some good sources to find a BTC-related job? My friends and family think its crazy, but I really could talk about BTC and learn about it all day long.
I know I asked a lot, but I really do appreciate any insight you have to offer. Thank you for all the hard work your putting into the BTC ecosystem, I know it will not be in vain.
Thanks - go to the conferences, and meet some of the entrepreneurs building companies. Look at some of the ones that Ego Death has funded too. FYI - I can't tell you how many people I hired that came to me with very little experience but knew my business and had a willingness to learn and do whatever it took to help. Most people write a resume and wait for a job posting when you can hack that process by learning about companies prior to their job postings and ensuring that you are the best person for job. Passion sells - and then if you follow that up with execution and learning from mistakes....unstoppable.
