I think this boy is just lucky that he buy and invest on bitcoin in the right time and that statement that he told was only his statement. All of us has a different paths to take and different problems to face but after 10 years is not just enough to become a millionaire just like that lucky kid. Maybe I will still playing this crypto game and help some people that wanted to be a millionaire. And all of us have a choice either you invest your money and take the risk or wait for your coins to pump.

It look like that. buying 50 btc at such a young age is extraordinarily clever. and how young he could find out about crypto. he must be a lot on the internet and his long-term mind is very smart. success at a young age because of the price of bitcoin is an interesting achievement of success and part of the history of crypto as well. like a bitcoin pizza.

Well thats why I believe that going to school doesnt give you all things you need to be succesful in life.Succes is all about your choices in life and how you spend your hour.Experience is still the very best teacher in life,you cant learn nothing without experience.

I am talking about Eric Finman.

Image source

An inspiring story that is worth to read.

This is just a summarized of his journey.

Eric Finman is just a typical 16 year old student who is bright and creative. He has smart two brothers and he is the youngest. He is into latest technologies. When his brother introduced digital currencies (bitcoin) at 2013 who his brother brought 50 bitcoins. He decided to compete his brother by buying hundreds of bitcoin worth $1,000 in which his grandmother's gave.

His brother Ross gave him a book by Ohanian ( a co-founder of Reddit), which indicates the power of internet and which got Eric's attention and interests. He is eager to meet him but there is $8,500 fee which made his parents think it was too much. With his eagerness he founds out and discovered that the bitcoin reached $1,200 and he sold his bitcoin to $100,000.

Finally, he met Ohanian. It amazed him how matured enough Eric when it comes to technology. One time, as a freelancer, he make a Flappy Bird knockoff game and Ohanian is an eye opener for Eric's eagerness to use internet as a source of income.

He produce his own programmers, etc. And made his own company.

I just thought Mark Zuckerberg is the youngest millionare. Now, it is Eric Finman.

Here is my favorite line from my idol,

Quote from: Eric Finman

"I say if you do not become a millionaire in the next 10 years, then it’s your own fault."

He is now 18 years old. Despite of being disppointment in terms of education, he is now a successful and the youngest millionare by bitcoin and by his innovations and by being creative.

Read the full article here.

That can inspire many people, especially those who are still in the age of teenager. It is very rare to become millionaire in just a very young age. It will gain you such a large name and become famous. That quote he said is such a powerful statement that can wake the people up.

Such a lucky kiddo. Thanks to his big brother for introducing him to bitcoin. He will serve as an inspiration to all who are in bitcoin community. I just hope that he realize that we came from different backgrounds and have different fortunes. So though everyone would like to be a millionaire, the universe sometimes just won't allow it. Not being a millionaire is nobody's fault. At least trying to improve his financial life and being able to achieve it, I think, is enough.

This young boy inspired and motivates people in crypto. He is a good example to everyone that success doesn't matter if your young or old it is in yourself how you decide. He also a proof that bitcoin is not a scam. I hope someday i will become a millionaire too with the help of bitcoin.

This is why they say information is very key to making wealth. If he weren't informed by the older brother he wouldn't have become a millionaire. This is what many of us lacked, it was only a few you got wave of bitcoin in its early years.

wow that is an extraordinary story and at the same time can motivate us all. When a 16-year-old child is able to do that then why can't we? Basically we should not be afraid to compete and continue to seek knowledge.

Although I'm sure there are some younger also who feel such this thing I mean got a millioner through bitcoin but he is aware of his anonimity. The best important when we try to do something is find a knowledge first and after that you are free to make a decision. Can you imagine in 2009 there ia anyone who believe to bitcoin? When we all know the fiat money is everything at that time. But for some people never look at that time only, they will have a thought again the future. And he was right, cryptocurrency or digital currency is the important part for human life at this time and in the future for sure.

No risk no gain, the young lad used what he had to gain what he wants. I believe there are other people with such stories beyond the crypto space but to a layman investing high to earn high return is always not easy because it comes with a 50-50 chances. Take for example those that bought bitcoin when bitcoin was at it ATH price, these people thought it would go beyond that price, not knowing they will eventually get burnt but regardless of it. The risk we take today defines our tomorrow.

All those who got in on bitcoin early enough are made for life now. The price there and then are far distant from each other. If I was aware of this before, would have invested heavily on it. There are new altcoins with great possibilities now. The only hung is to research and get in on time.

That's why it deemed seems right to utilized every opportunity you see. How lucky is he though. Success is for the risk taker's. He invested at the time bitcoin was abit low and now he has gotten a massive return. The kid understands what it's really llike to invest in bitcoin with big money from his brother

Did he really know what he was doing or he just had luck? Was he really such good investor that calculated everything or were these just circumstances? That is the question for discussion. Still I hope he learned a lot out of it and that he knows how to clever use the money and invest further. Anyway, he is still very young so this is the good teaching lesson for him and hope he will stay in crypto, not only because of money.

It's a big statement! An 18 year old male who grew up in an affluent family, is not a good fit for making such statement! Becoming a millionaire doesn't make you eligible for such statements!

People come from different backgrounds, different financial situations and different family situations! To get a different perspective of life, speak to a slum boy someday!

~

This is all true. This child had the sense to invest his money instead of spend it on toys and gadgets and technology. He also times it well. Some of us didn't. We lost out. He had disposable money so he risked it. We didn't.

I just summarized it with my own wordswhat I have understand about his journey on how he became millionare. You can read all his story with the link i provided below my post. Also, i did not copy paste it. You can simple pin point it easily since my English and my grammar is not that good and intact.

However, back to the topic. I envy the boy so much. He was so determined to become victorious in life. He was so lucky the btc's price back then was so cheap.

I gave you 3 merit points Cool

You contacted me and used your initiative so you deserve them.

Yeah I wanted to buy bitcoins in 2013 but I didn't Sad

I did need the money but still. I just had to wait a few years.

I always remember one story that happened in 2008 or in 2009, when one guy offered to buy two pizzas for 10.000 Bitcoin. Then someone took these words with a sneer, because Bitcoin had practically no value and no one believed in its prospects. But today, many people perceive this information with a hysterical smile, because they understand what great opportunities these were at that time. Simple guys who were simply addicted to computers and high technologies, such as the blockchain, simply playing accumulated a large amount of Bitcoin in their wallets, without even knowing what it would lead to. Today they are billionaires who are practically either gamers or nerds. The same situation is probably with a boy who is 18 years old.

I too knew about bitcoin in 2013 but neither did I had courage, nor $1000 to spare for some digital tokens.
There are still a lot of oppurtunities around us but we just need to realise it and have courage enough to believe in what you think would make a change.
Cryptocurrency is still in it's early phase and we can have more of such millionaires in the future.

He's amazing. That's his fate, to be a millionaire at young age. Anyway, we can be millionaire regardless of age, regardless our IQ. We just have a different path to become successful in life. I did not want the old cliché that states, "if you die poor it's your fault because you had given time to become rich" Who wants to suffer poverty in all of his lifetime? Being successful doesn't only depend in our self.

These are what inspire us in our journey for financial freedom. It looks a very long way to get there but that isn't it. This little kid didn't just make it in a month or two. I was just recently that bitcoin caught the world's attention. So I still see myself as a billionaire in the near future.

This is indeed the inspiration to us, we can still have the chance to become millionaire. Yes, he spend more time for sure but his thinking right for sure. I wish to become like him, though I’m quiet old now but I wont stop just because of my age, I’m inspired to do more.

He took the risk and he got lucky. There's very less people who would risk a $1000 for an unknown tech. But he knew what the power of internet could bring for the world and invested in what is thought was worth it. And was handsomely rewarded for that.
What we should learn from this is we should take risks if we want to be sucessful.
