    He’s name is Tope Awotona. Put his name in the title next time so we don’t have to dig through to find out. He was on the Forbes cover, for Pete’s sake.

    I am so proud of another Nigerian Brother. A self-billionaire in the United States. So happy for him (Tope Awotona). Not sure if there is any other African immigrant to the United States that's a self-billionaire like him? If there is, please correct me. If not, it is all good. His story inspires many Africans to want to succeed financially as to become a self-billionaire. As long as it is always for a good cause. Peace...

      Investing or rather Trading crypto as a newbie is quite stressful and discouraging especially with the rise and falls in market, working with someone knowledgeable with the technicalities in the market is a good idea

    • @angelaa.ferrante968
      @angelaa.ferrante968 2 года назад

      You can actually make a whole lot of profit in crypto investment by trading even with the current dip, you just need to work with a professional with a whole lot of experience in the field

    • @linyaoliu4166
      @linyaoliu4166 2 года назад

      A lot of people still make massive profits from the
      crypto market. all you really need is relevant
      information and some professional advice. it's totally
      inappropriate for investors to hang on while suffering
      from dips during significant market falls.

      Back then when I was a novice, I also lost a lot of

      Thanks to Leonard Sun Wu , I'm now earning more than
      before every two weeks.

    • @helenatkins2845
      @helenatkins2845 2 года назад

      People mostly think that investing in crypto is all
      about holding until it rises, but the real truth is it
      takes time and it's a gamble at the end of the day.
      The recent crash would give you an idea of how
      things are at the moment.

    Being successful don' t happen by magic Success is dependent on the action or steps you take to achieve it. Show me a man who doesn't have an investment and I will tell you how soon he'll go broke Investment is building a safe haven for the future: with the right choice of investment that has at least 1% minimum risk and with an Expert guidance, profit and interest should be 700 guaranteed.

      If you start working let's say at 23 years old, live very frugally, you can save 200k easily by the time you are 31 years old. Not to mention he included his 401k.
