Learn How to Invest: Learning Terminology: Blockchain

Want to learn about investing? Don't know the terminology? When learning how to invest it's important to learn terminology...like BLOCKCHAIN. I'm not a fan of Crytocurrency, it's too volatile...but I am a fan of BLOCKCHAIN technology which cryptocurrency uses. The reason I like it..because, providing it's used in a productive and constructive manner, it can be used for anything and everything... "Blockchain is an incorruptible digital ledger of economic transactions that can be programmed to record not just financial transactions but virtually everything of value." Don & Alex Tapscott, authors Blockchain Revolution

(2016)

I'm looking at it in terms of the Cannabis industry..."the necessary data needed to track the health of a

cannabis supply, from seed to weed, one can be sure that governments will require a robust inspection system for growers and retailers alike." and I want to make sure the companies I invest in are authentic and in their integrity. This application will make sure of that. Examples of other applications BLOCKCHAIN can be used for in various industries: Restaurants, Hospitals and Healthcare, Productivity and Production in the workplace, Music biz, film biz, photographers, galleries...it's endless. HealthSpace Data Systems (OTC: HDSLF) is at the forefront of Blockchain technology as a database...but it's a penny stock which means it's highly volatile... so for me...I'm taking a chance. I like to by 100 -1000 shares of a stock and leave it. In this case, because it's .07 a share right now... 1000 shares is $70. Can I afford to lose it? Sure. How many of you buy lottery tickets or go to a movie or go out to dinner. It's a one time thing...or a throw away. I'd rather put that money into stocks and see what happens. Now..remember...this is just an example of something I did...it doesn't mean YOU do it. Find what's right for you.

My general rule of thumb. Never be desperate when you invest. Be well read...investigate...read everything you can before you put money into a stock or a fund. If you can't afford to lose it...don't put money into it. Stocks are like a rollercoaster...they go up and down; So many people expect it to go up...but they never prepare themselves for the fall. Don't pull your money out when the market goes down...be patient and wait it out; it's when everyone pulls their money out, it crashes...To manifest money, use your head not your heart. Emotions have no place in investing. My experience is that Brokers are educated guessers...and I can educate myself when it comes to my money. I don't want to put it in someone else's hands.

Remember...these are my thoughts... You have to formulate your own.. I don't listen to anyone when I invest...just to myself... #ownyourpower

 I made 3 conscious choices with 3 top record executives who offered me contracts back in the early 80's, not to have sex with them...I didn't even flinch...I removed myself from the situation... I couldn't sell my soul to the devil. After I finally got what the industry was about and was flat out told how women make it and what was expected of me... I made sure that I always had someone with me when I attended any meeting and could tell immediately, when the executive I was with was angry at the "guest" from the start, what his intentions were and got up and left to his hostile and vulgar words. Women, #WAKEUP What the Harvey Weinstein's in the industry do is wrong...AND we all must accept some responsibility and that is...don't be naive when it comes to the upper echelon of the entertainment industry. He's not unique...this has been occurring since the start of the industry. Yes...what he did was heinous... but don't you dare walk into a meeting alone and expect innocence or expect to be treated with respect and kindness...and men too...I know plenty of male friends who went through this...women executives in the industry are not innocent... Every single one of us has a story... so start putting your truth out there...and band together to stops sex abuse and sexual harassment in the entertainment industry... It's the people who think if they don't do what the executive wants they won't make it because that's what they're told. Turn the power around...how small and desperate are they to sink so low...and use sex as a power tool...
