While kids his age were buying snacks, he was buying Bitcoin


Erik Finman one of the youngest Bitcoin MILLIONAIRE ever, he grew up in Idaho and didn’t like school
At 12, his grandma gave him about $1,000 meant for college, Instead of saving it, he bought Bitcoin at around $10
His brother was the one who first put him onto it, He then made a deal with his parents
If he could turn that $1K into $1M by 18, they wouldn’t force him to go to college
So he went ALL IN, By 15, he dropped out of school and started focusing on building
As Bitcoin started pumping around 2013, his money grew FAST, He cashed out some and turned it into a business called Botangle
An online education platform inspired by how much he hated school, and later sold that business for Bitcoin
In 2017, Bitcoin pumped massively towards $20K, and he became a millionaire before turning 18
At one point, he was holding hundreds of BTC( Around 400+), He kept building, investing, and exploring new ideas in crypto and tech
Even talked about things like building his own education system and working on big tech projects
Now he’s older, still in crypto, still holding Bitcoin, Lowkey, but still bullish
All from one decision at 12, Buying Bitcoin instead of buying chocolate like a normal kid
