Vadim saw a major problem in the industry: consumers are confused and can't see through the haze of hype on CBD all over the internet. The CBD School was created to educate consumers on how to use CBD and where to find the best products for their needs.

Vadim is the CBD Professor. For the last two decades, he has dedicated himself to researching the benefits of the cannabis plant. But it wasn't enough to learn about the benefits for himself—he wanted to share them with the world.

Thus the CBD School was created.

We discuss:

  • Marijuana propaganda 
  • CBD School and how it started
  • Promoting CBD sites
  • What is CBD? Where CBD come from?
  • Difference from hemp, Marijuana
  • What’s the amount of CBD in Hemp Oil? What’s the amount of CBD in Cannabis Oil?
  • and much more!

I was excited to sit down and have an interview with Ravinder Deol, who is a a Certified Bitcoin Professional and after absorbing a lot of his content, he has one of the more sensible approached to how we approach this new financial revolution.

He’s been involved in the Cryptocurrency and Blockchain space since 2013, and has seen it grow tremendously. He said he saw a white space in the structured education of it all. So he’s taken it upon myself to help you get all the knowledge you need in one place!
Initially he started out by teaching live classes which then lead to the creation of B21 Block, where along with a team of co-instructors the goal is to bring high quality, engaging and practical Cryptocurrency and Blockchain education online. As of this date he’s had over 83k students and currently 23 courses available but he’s kind enough to help answer some of our questions here. So without further
