Erik Finman – The Teen Who Defied School and Became a Bitcoin Millionaire
In 2011, Erik Finman was only 12 years old and hated traditional schooling. He received a $1,000 gift from his grandmother, and instead of spending it on games or luxuries, he decided to invest it in something new he had been hearing about: Bitcoin.
At that time, the price of Bitcoin was around just $12, and he was able to buy more than 80 Bitcoins.
Years went by, and Erik continued to hold onto them despite the mockery from his friends and relatives.
In 2017, with the price of Bitcoin reaching nearly $20,000, his fortune surpassed one million dollars.
Erik became an example that early vision and patience can change anyone's life.
