I am Josie “Joe” Gonzalez. I am from Colombia 🇨🇴
This is me enjoying a day out with the ladies at the beach 🏖:
My parents are Colombian and Venzuelian. I grew up in Colombia poor, but not poorer than anyone else in my neighborhood. When I was 10 my parents sent me to live my aunt in the United States while they stayed behind. She lived in Florida, which is a beautiful place.
When I came to the US everything was different. People had nice houses, new cars and fancy clothes. But I did not. My aunt was poor in American standards, but rich compared to where I came from.
So shortly after I got here, I got it put into a public school and began to learn English. I really picked up English fast and excelled in all other subjects. After I got done with high school, I went off to college. I got good enough grades that my aunt did not have to pay for my schooling because I got scholarships and grants. 👩🏽🎓
I went to school to become an entrepreneur and I really loved marketing. So after graduating college, I got into businesses and slowly moved up the chain.👩🏽💼 Currently I’m working as a regional supervisor for a company and I’m making good money. 💵
I got into crypto and steemit after some colleagues talked about it. I realized that there was some money to be made in it and that it could be the future. So I reasoned that putting some money in was worth it especially if it did take off. And it did. I made decent returns on my investments. But then I found Steemit.
I stumbled on to Steemit by accident when researching cryptos. And I instantly loved it. I got here about a year ago on another account, but wrongful flagging and rudeness caused me to leave that pretty successful account. Now I’m just here to help the minnows succeed by resteemig their posts to others. I feel that for a small account to be successful here, they need more people to see their content. Which is what I try to do.
I’m not worried about improving this account or making it worth a lot or getting big rewards on my posts. I don’t care about that or I would post more content everyday than I do.
I’m just your average person who is interested in crypto and loves Steemit. I’m just your average-Josie or as my username says, @average-joe
Here are some more pictures of the ladies and I from our day at the beach:
