Cris’ Advice

I think the two areas that we talk about quite a lot today, one is cryptocurrency, and the other one is investment in startups. I think for cryptocurrency, my one advice would be that it's a very attractive and upcoming opportunity.

But be careful and do your own research, and research really deeply to understand the matter and everything. You won't be able to master it without understanding the matters. 

For startups out there, be realistic and don't go too crazy for Vietnam startups. Coming from a market that hasn't been known for high quality and successful startups. I think we have to start small and be humble.
