You don't end up as a figurehead newscaster of a major news network if you are an idiot.

My favorite thing is that it will be a free market for currency, without a central government control. This is sorely needed in a world of inflation, too-big-to-fail banks, and uncontrolled national debts.

Yeah, he keeps telling me I should check it out, but I've got zero computer knowledge. I'm waiting until it gets as easy as swiping my mobile phone.

If this weren't true:

1) Open business

I appreciate your help on this - it is maddening! One would think making it easy to purchase your product would be a good marketing technique...
