A "crazy" drunk old guy got me into Crypto, how did you get into Crypto?
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>In was a late summer night in 2016. I was about to finish my shift at the local bottle shop when I hear a thud. An old guy, reeking of alcohol has faceplanted onto the shop floor.</p> <p>I ask him if he is ok? He springs up, twirls around and looks me in the eyes.</p> <p>He says "thank you for helping me stranger, forgive my less than sober state but I just put all my money into magic internet money".</p> <p>I replied, "magic internet money? Forgive me but that sounds crazy".</p> <p>He replied "No it's not crazy (then proceeds to burp and fart at the same time), Bitcoin will be the currency of the future, I already have 1000, you should invest too you will be rich".</p> <p>He then proceeds to buy the most awful boxed wine and goes in his merry way.</p> <p>I thought he was the craziest nutter I ever met.
