It has been really helpful, and I just want to say thank you to everybody.
Welcome to the forum, feel free to ask more questions in case you become confused. I can relate to your story, and it is a good place your friend has introduced you to, he has also put you on a path to financial independence with him/her introducing you to cryptocurrency instead of helping you temporarily with money which would have been good also but sadly a temporary solution to your financial problems. That is an example of the type of friend to keep.
