It was not long ago in the Cryptocurrency when Bitcoins reached it $10,000.00  US Dollars Milestone. It was then the talk of either selling for profit or buying for profit began …

“If you had one shot or one opportunity to seize everything you ever wanted in one moment, would you capture it or just let it slip?” words from a song I was listening to while thinking about investing in Bitcoins Did you capture it or let it slip???

[embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaitu1MmbAQ[/embedyt]

For those early investors who bought bitcoins in early 2017, when one cost less than $900, you could have a profit of more than 1,200% now !!!

Now for those who were unlucky and bought at the peak of about $20,000.00 US Dollars on Dec. 17 (a special day for me – not related to bitcoins), you’d have lost more than 40 percent of your money as of Jan. 16, 2018, when the price was $11,200. More than $2,000 of that decline came in about 24hrs after South Korean Finance Minister Kim Dong-yeon indicated the country may crack down on cryptocurrency trading to discourage speculation. It’s not every asset that can feel like it’s in a bubble and a crash at the same time.

I mean think about the use of Bitcoins currently in the real world, it’s a difficult currency to use!!! The network is slow and expensive for small transactions. Here is a Video of Buying Airline Tickets on Bitcoins :

Should You sell your bitcoins ??? Only You can answer that question for yourself !!!

How can you HELP ???

Contact your Local Officials  by calling them, emailing them and writing to them. Express your concern and tell them – This is not what America was founded upon !!!

DONATE : ACLU is THE ONLY PLATFORM that is Truly making a HUGE difference in fighting against #MUSLIMBAN or any other injustice being faced by other minority groups.

We travel about 400,000+ miles at a given year, we have been blessed and fortunate enough to travel so much. Just as we were driving to go towards the Protest Area ( JFK Terminal 4 ) my wife Samia reminded me of a time where I was just wishing to go back home because I was so home sick and upon lending at US Soil, I literally said ” Thank You God – Good 2 Be Home ” … Than she told me, imagine you land and are told you can’t go further and must go back !!! That was very Powerful and mindbogglingly for me to just intake…

What’s a #MUSLIMBAN ???

President Trump signed an Executive Order banning MUSLIM Citizens from the following countries: Somalia, Sudan, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Iran & Iraq. They are ban for 90 days for now !!!

What about American Citizens from these BAN Countries ?

They are safe however expect secondary screening and longer delays as you will most likely be held in Customs/Immigration for further questioning …

How about Green Card & Visa Holders ?

Consult an attorney before coming to USA or Going from USA. You will most likely be stopped from coming into USA !!!

Why are you protesting, yelling and screaming your lungs off about someone  ( President Elect Donald Trump ) who won the Election fairly and showed the world that in America; people truly pick its leader.  Instead of wasting energy on dividing this Free Nation, lets unite and give Donald Trump the opportunity to be Presidential.

Stop Blaming the Independent voters or Bernie supporters, it will not change the result and shows your only in denial of reality. The votes were simply not enough, you lost. Accept it and make peace with it.

The whole world is in disbelief, almost all minority communities are scared. People are freaking out, Muslims seeking to change their name, getting rid of Hijab, shaving your beard or removing your Muslim identity – you see as Muslims we believe everything happens at the will of GOD. There is a wisdom in him being elected, this happened for a reason.

This a major sign for us, to become a “FORCE FOR GOOD” in this world …  Instead of being a slave to our career and lifestyle; letting very few do all the good work. This should be a Wake Up Call – Get involved in any capacity, fill your weekend with nonprofit work not parties. Fill your afternoon with volunteering not fancy lunches and spend your money on causes – not things !!! Support those around who actually do the work , because our lives are passing by.
