tl;dr learn the sysadmin skillset in your free-time, get really good at google, have a home-lab so you can at least say you've used the technologies, try and get entry-level at a small-medium size company and then demonstrate you're not an idiot so you get promoted. Work a couple years as a jack-of-all-trades sysadmin there, then either specialize in the company or find another job somewhere else that you can specialize at.

I ran a FreeBSD and gentoo lab out of my mom's basement from the age of 14-16, during which time I learned about hosting websites and performance tuning (it was a mediawiki site that got fairly popular - several tens of thousands of visitors per day at the peak before I had to go to dedicated offshore hosting), as well as about computer security.

I published a couple zero-day exploits for some vulnerabilities I found in my school's IT software and was consequently almost expelled my freshman year.

Ignored all but getting a low passing grade in all classes from 7th through 11th grade, spending that time learning how to program (e.g., HS senior project was a simple flood-model P2P instant messaging app with an IRC proxy frontend) and about computer security and networking.

Got a helpdesk job, took over for my manager when he quit (literally just grabbed all his tickets and completed a bunch before they even got a chance to hire a replacement). Was also getting a BS-CS degree but dropped out to take a full-time position (signing bonus was they paid off my student loans). Been working there for 6.5 years, went from $9/hr to 52k/year with 401k matching and health/dental insurance.

yeah, sure, government comes in and states a bunch of laws restricting existing businesses, and exchanges. Makes decentralised exchanges illegal. Bans crypto.

It won't stop people from doing it, but you can be damn well sure they will approach almost worthlessness - except on the black market. A great way to get yourself on a list.

Memedegrees are becoming worth less and less. Look at the state of college debating, fast talking between pauses of spastic hyperventilating. The kids coming out are robots programmed only to virtue signal. The news is now talking about bartenders and barbers being the new prestige positions for millennials. They'll have good middle class lives, the college kids will have too much debt, and the autists on 4chan will be the new elite: the memes will govern popular opinion and now we'll have substantial monetary force to accomplish what meme magic can't.

not a meme

also i'm actually smart and only paid $2,000 per year for food

and i put money in crypto years ago, so i have made more than 90% of this board, currently very low 7 figures

now i work as a researcher and put my salary into crypto, mostly have the job for paying my bills and getting insurance and qualifying for random shit

stay mad, always. buy high, sell low.

i know you're just memeing though OP. nobody who could go to college for less than living expenses(under $15,000 per year) would ever say no to that if they were smart.

It can be a door to financial analyst or trading work.
It takes a lot of time to analyze and invest in these coins. A lot of hedge funds do it professionally.

This seems like the best place to ask due to all the smugness.

Is there any wallet that can securely/privately store all types of coins?

Is the best way to make trades to buy BTC from an exchange with fiat and then trade BTCs for altcoins?
>>
>>2316724

>>

>>
>>2318874
>Is there any wallet that can securely/privately store all types of coins?
Meme shit can, but they are insecure as they rely on a party to manage your coins for you. If you're gonna be holding something, put it on a paper wallet and a usb stick.

>Is the best way to make trades to buy BTC from an exchange with fiat and then trade BTCs for altcoins?
All altcoins are bought with BTC and some ETH. You can only purchase the big boys on some sites and have to move them to trading sites to buy alts.
>>
>>2318874
>Is there any wallet that can securely/privately store all types of coins?
Get a hardware wallet. Too many hacked online wallets and github wallets getting malware injection.

>Is the best way to make trades to buy BTC from an exchange with fiat and then trade BTCs for altcoins?
You can buy ETH and LTC alt coins on Coinbase from fiat. Gemini only lets you buy BTC and ETH with fiat.
Majority of exchanges don't take fiat. They trade alt coins against BTC and ETH.
>>
>>2318477

>>
>>2316941

Really though, the best thing for maintaining a sysadmin job is:

1. LEARN TO GOOGLE
2. LEARN TO STACKOVERFLOW (and plebbit)
3. Learn how to make it look like you're doing a lot of work when you're not (i.e., automate everything and never tell anyone)
>>
>>2318052

You aren't going to start a bank, or get hired by a bank. You just sound insecure about your lack of education.
>>
>>2319177
It stores the codes on a tiny computer, kinda like a sim card. It's useful for spending securely because when you plug it into your computer, your computer wallet can generate an unsigned transaction to send to the hw wallet and the hww can sign the transaction and send it back to be broadcast to the network.

The hardware wallet is much more difficult to hack than a computer connected to the internet but so is a piece of paper. Unless you're spending coins fairly regularly a paper wallet is fine. Maybe hash the paper wallet with a password too and make multiple copies.

Doesn't mean shit.

I go to college and am a STEM student, it's always been my dream to become a scientist and study in astronomy, but I still come home every day and trade crypto for financial liberation. My lucky ass lives in Canada so I don't end up with tens of thousands of dollars in debt, but still, self-actualization doesn't always come from acquiring money, but following one's heart to wherever it takes him.

Money is only there to keep you safe and stable, it shouldn't be the end-goal of your life. Your childhood dream should be, chase the dragon fellas.
>>
>>2319861
Pretty much this. I'm likely to drop out of college since all I really want to do is write my stories, crypto will let me do that without all the financial headaches.

Here's what I did a couple of months ago as a Canadian. Start an account on Kraken. Get verified to tier 2. Deposit some fiat and buy some BTC because good price on it (ATM is like 20% more expensive).

After that, move BTC to other exchanges, one of the most popular is Bittrex. Then go to /biz/ and take advice on which alt-coin to buy with BTC, to hold, and then to sell. Use sites like coinmarketcap, cryptowatch and icostats to learn more about how the coins are doing in the market. Luckily for me my parents are upper middle-class so I don't worry about money but still it's nice to triple your initial investment even with some mistakes.

Plus daytraders get fucked hard so trading late at night is comfy and good too even if you're busy all day.

>>2319894
That's the goal anon, you have a goal in your heart and you pursue it no matter what, money is only there to off you liberation and the freedom to follow your dream without worries, however money itself shouldn't be the dream.

Good luck with your writing anon, never give up on it.
>>

also, money is freedom- freedom to do whatever you want, wherever you want
