I did not receive my first Bitcoin for free back in end of 2012, I bought them with my own hard earned savings.

I did a lot of research and eventually I decided to make a wire transfer to Japan, to this mysterious game card exchange that sold Bitcoin for money.

When I think back on it, I must have been one of the crazy ones.

After the transfer had arrived into the Mt.Gox account, I bought my first bulk of Bitcoin at approximately $12 USD each.
