Who am I? Also, why am I here?

Hi, my name is **Gabriel**, although you can refer to me by my username. When I joined this site I was met with a long, yet interesting post with info and tips. One that stood out was to write a post about myself. So, here we are ;) Who am I? Well, we already got my name out of the way. I'm from **Venezuela**, and I'll be starting university in October. You may not think that's a useful fact, but we'll get to it: trust me. I like programming, crypto, Rocket League and I support Chelsea FC. Decent set of interests, right? Well, I can't really think of more stuff to tell you. I have a brother, a girlfriend, a group of losers I call my friends (I love them, just don't tell them) and a stable sleep schedule. **Life is very very decent**. Why am I here? Let me tell you a story. My brother started university while I was pretty much halfway through high school. I, for whatever reason, was excited. It went great for him: many interesting stories and learnings, new friendships, all the fun stuff. Not without the usual suffering of a student under pressure, of course, but it was an **adventure**. He's still going at it, but now it's my turn to go through all of that. And having an avid interest in programming, I thought it would be great to **share my experience** online. Now, I'll be honest with you. I could've chosen **any** site. Why read.cash? Because... money. Well, because Bitcoin Cash. As a struggling Venezuelan boy, it's always good to have a source of income. But wait, there's more. I'll probably end up taking about 50% of my earnings, the rest will go to cancer research and other things that deserve money. That's more of a personal story I'll be saving for a future post, so stay tuned! Final words Wow, I actually enjoyed writing this! Seems like it'll be fun over here. So, I guess this is a "see you soon". Drop a follow, like, I don't know. Oh, and if you're wondering about the lead image, it's just a photo that I found neat. I took it. Or my girlfriend. It's hard to remember, but that's a story for another post! Stay tuned ;)
