At the age of 12, Erik Finman was among the earliest people to invest in Bitcoin.
Instead of spending his pocket money on typical childhood items, in 2012 he used $1,245 he’d gotten from his grandmother to buy Bitcoin when it was trading at around $12 per coin.
By the time he turned 18, Bitcoin's value had skyrocketed, turning his initial investment into more than $2-million.
Despite his early success, Finman has grown tired of being associated with cryptocurrency and has diversified his investments, continuing to grow his significant net worth.
