“Bitcoin helped me buy my house” — Daniel Crocker, business owner

In 2012, Daniel Crocker was completing an apprenticeship at an IT company. Every lunchtime, he would chat with his colleagues about side hustles to make some extra money. When the topic of bitcoin came up, he decided to give it a go and make a small investment.

He then held those coins for 8 years as their value grew and grew. Last year, he sold some enough for half the deposit on his house. “I do know people who have gone in deep but I think I've been lucky enough already.”

Finance isn’t just about numbers—it’s about strategy, timing, and having the right mindset. The opportunities in 2025 are massive, but only for those who stay informed and take action.

So, what’s your next move? Will you ride the wave of AI-driven investments, tap into private credit, or build a rock-solid passive income stream? Whatever you choose, make sure it’s a step toward financial independence.

Stay sharp, stay invested, and as always—make your money work harder than you do.
