Thanks Amir! Appreciate all the hard work you do.

I always liked coding and when I went to uni 16 yrs ago I did a major in
economics and a minor in IT/coding/databases and I sucked in the former
and kicked ass in the latter. Just love it when your code comes alive
and works. I did make the wrong decision to pursue a carreer in finance
but eventually decided to stop last September. I moved around a lot and
now I'm in Ecuador. I invested in a few start-ups related to
crypto/freedom and now do all sorts of stuff.

Maybe I can interview you too one day if you liked the Bauwens
interview? Will reach out to you in Skype.
