Issue #95 - Create and embrace the opportunity
Plenty of people will complain. Lead by example.
Hola 👋
Thank you for reading. Welcome.
This week we are in San Salvador. And it has been a fun time with lots of firsts for us.
Visiting the historic center and new library with our friend Berry. Very impressive. Make the time to explore El Salvador.
Have a great week.

El Salvador to Become Wealthiest Nation
Tim Draper is an investor that has seen enough in the world to make a prediction that El Salvador has made a smart strategical move.
Many countries are competing in old systems. It is often the countries that embrace new technologies early, that do well.

Bitcoin Brings Opportunity
We had people ask us what opportunity the people of El Salvador had thanks to Bitcoin. There is a lot here. But people have to want it and search for it and take action on it. There are a number of organisations that offer opportunity to locals in Spanish.
A list of opportunity.

Bitcoin Conversational Spanish
Our friend Sam is an English and Spanish teacher. She has created a Bitcoin Conversational Spanish course. Great for people visiting El Salvador.
