I have recently noticed the biggest thing holding me back is my circle. I am currently caged! My friends don't understand crypto, they don't make investments. They don't talk about profit margins. I really am struggling to surround myself with the right people.Any tips on how to meet more of your type of people or infiltrate these succesful circles? Anyone from the UK who would like to chat please drop me a message

I would recommend installing couchsurfing and try to meet people there. I met hundreds of people with many interests by couchsurfing.

One thing I like to do for this is to spend money I can't afford (or aren't comfortable spending) for access to these people. Money is a natural filter.

Anything that involves social mingling that costs more money than's comfortable, are good. Examples could be certain industry events, private members clubs, buying the next level up of plane ticket (conversations you might strike up with a neighbour in economy vs business class are different), golf clubs, etc. Anything to screen out the bottom-rung-ers. I.e.: what is something that my existing friends couldn't or wouldn't do, that the successful can and do do.

Another way I've heard of doing this is to approach mentors, LinkedIn being good for this for finding potentials. I haven't done it myself but if you can have some old been there done that had the private jet guy take a whippersnapper like yourself under his arm it can be a rocket for getting among high flyers.
