I, Dennis Spiess, left Germany in 2016 to become an location-independent entrepreneur. I have studied Business Informatics and could have somehow survived with software jobs. But I started with only two months worth of savings. Reason enough to look again into an investment opportunity I have already heard of a few years ago. But, unfortunately, I just didn’t understand it before. Now, I dealt with that topic again for a while not expecting that it would become a mainstream phenomenon in 2017 which sustains me financially until this day. I talk about cryptos.Cryptocurrencies?
