I'm a Odesk worker before (seems that they have changed their name already) and everytime I have to do my work that time, I will always bump into bitcoin. But I didn't take notice until early last year when I have again bump into it and read about and fell on it. I read Satoshi's whitepaper and I said that they can truly change the world.

Its so disruptive that it can change the financial landscape of everyone one. Imagine eliminating third party like the old and traditional financial institutions. And then I found out about this forum and the rest is history.

I could say that it really has a lot influence and a game changer. In a span of a year, I was able to put my own offline business near my place and my wife quit her job to focus on it. Although I still have my regular job maybe down the line if I have enough through my trading activities, I might quit my job at the end of the year.
