Introduction
My name is Colby and I'm a student at Oklahoma State University studying finance. I've been investing in the stock market for about 4 years with one of my first really good investments being the parent company of Pokémon GO which turned out to be a huge success, and also Nvidia was a big money maker for me. Last December I started learning about cryptocurrency. I instantly fell in love with blockchain technology and its many uses. After college I hope to work at a blockchain startup or even a big investment company and help them invest in cryptocurrency.
My hobbies include playing video games, golfing, playing guitar, hanging out with friends, traveling, and learning about blockchain and different cryptocurrency's.
One of the classes I'm taking this semester is about Blockchain and we're learning about Hive. One of my projects for this class is creating value for Hive let me know if anyone has any suggestions for my project.

Its interesting and great that you put your story into a blog and left it here on the blockchain, so welcome, welcome to the Hive movement and blockchain. Your first blog is up and on the chain, hope you feel relieved, and not afraid of what is coming your way in the comments.
We know it can be daunting and frightening because all is new.

But for now the new beginning, you will have fun blogging and vlogging I promise. But in the beginning it’s hard and all is new and maybe you need help. We have amazing people here and a help discord if you need it. I love blogging, and was a newcomer once aswell so i know the feeling. The biggest and best advice is always be carefull with all your passwords, Never give those up !! I speak from experience !
What always will help you build your new hive account, and profile on here, is establishing relationships and the best way to build them is to comment on other people's posts, there are so many topics here, and there will always be one that is of interest to you but also be interested in them, by reading and upvoting. This will draw them to your own account aswell, where they will discover a little more about you and relationships take off from there, and comments and votes will be the next step. When you have a twitter account you van visit #hivelift for more information.

Hey Colby, welcome to Hive and the LeoFinance community!
I'm really intrigued by the fact one of your projects at school is to create value for/on Hive.
I'd love to hear some more details about the project and discuss some possibilities with you.
Remember, as a decentralised platform, we're building value for all stakeholders.
It's such a cool concept.
Anyway, looking forward to having a chat and hopefully seeing you around :)
