Hi guys, this is my very first post on Steemit so let me be as synthetic and exhaustive as possible.
Who am I ?
My name is Piero Martellini and I'm currently studying at Bocconi University, MSc in Economics and Management. I live in Milan but I'm often around Europe trying to deepen my academic background. I'm 22 yrs old and I plan to graduate by summer 2020.
Unlike many users, anonymity is not a big deal to me; I rather consider transparency a way to overcome information asymmetries, hence a source of efficiency. Therefore, please feel free to double check my profile on:

What do I like to do beyond pretending to be serious?
I insanely love smoking (only cigarettes, weed made me go to the hospital) and driving. Driving is amazing: to me, there is no better definition of freedom than a car. Of course, smooking while driving is undefinable.
I do crossfit to keep the shape, but - still - smoking is better.
I don't club too much, as I prefer dining: I keep telling my friends I can't flirt in a Club, as I need to use words. Thus, clubbing did not get involved in my evolutionary path.
Cooking is fine, if smoking meanwhile. Waking up early in the morning is lovely, as the coffee&marlboro are punctually waiting for me.
Finally, I love reading and my last mentor is Yuval Noah Harari (Homo Sapiens and Homo Deus's Author)
Why did I join Steemit?
As I keep on going studying I constantly realize that today's big issue is information. There's a huge inflationary trend on information and this somehow ends up affecting our judgments and expectations.
Accordingly, I surely believe in freedom of speech but I absolutely do not believe in free information flows: a kind of filter is needed, so to define a threshold between raw material and sophisticated one.
Steemit does so: the platform found a way to implement a filter. And much better: a decentralized filter!
I joined Steemit because Facebook is dying, and I'm happy about it :)
What will be my contribution to the community?
I'll try to satisfy mainly three macro-topics first: economics, management and a bit of anthropological sociology. If - I hope - I'll attract enough followers to identify a niche, then I'll start targeting that niche .. possibly creating shared-content working with other mates.
As an editor, I'll do my best to enrich topics belonging to the above-mentioned areas. What's for sure is that I won't get involved within fields that are out of my scope: you'll never read a post of mine talking about cyber-hacking or video games, as I want to preserve the information flow about cyber-hacking and video games.
I hope you guys didn't get bored in reading this very first introductory post and see ya all very soon with my first contribution!
