it probably isn't worth your time and is definitely not worth your money.
reasons to get an mba
>your employer is paying for it
>you hate your job and need to find a way out

look at the most common employers of graduates for the past few years, and look at linkedin to see where the graduates wound up

I had a friend that did Chem e at Cornell and an MBA at uf. Makes probably 160k at exxon now, and only going up.

>>1836693
My cousin got a philosophy degree at Cornell and ended up working a job involving M&A. That's the benefit of going to an Ivey League school - you get a great job no matter what.

Not with ad revenue, I'll tell you that. 30k a week is too low, and with 1 video a week you'll never build a backlog (don't even know how much this is a thing in automotion - do people care about old stuff?).

It's really more of a vehicle to build an audience. After 3-5 years you'll have built a loyal audience and some brand recognition. Then you do promotions (aka selling out) or start living comfortably from user contributions (tip jars, Patreons, paid subscriptions, etc). If you can't build a mass following in a target demographic that interests coporations for endorsements basically 29,800 of your 30k views are worthless to you. And of the remaining 200 chipping in with real money, you could probably do without 180 putting in less than 5 bucks. The whole endeavour is a front to attract the 20 people among 30,000 who are big spenders, don't care about the money and built a personal affinity for your content over the last 5 years that makes them willing to support you. A career in the arts like the one you're thinking about is only viable if you produce something with mass appeal or if you attract wealthy patrons.

You're gonna want to reach out to local automative companies (products, dealerships, and brands). Approach them with your viewers data in hand, eg "I get 30,000 views/week. 70% are between the age of 18-35, and 60% are from the state of Louisianna" You might be able to land some influencer marketing that way.

If that sounds like too much work I would suggest you white label your own car care product and sell it online. Like buy 300 bottles of car wash soap, get your own name and logo printed on the bottles and sell for profit.

You don't make shit off youtube ad money alone unless you're in the millions of views. Your goal is to do affiliate marketing or sell some branded shit, or otherwise try to get them to go to some other site where you're selling something.

cuz their niggercoins

Thanks for your valuable input

bitecoin got big because it was the first real one me thinks

ether is the future, its programable, which makes a difference somehow

One third party injury claim and you're fucked.

>>1840253

I'd prefer it be no insurance. You get in an accident. You're paying for that shit out of pocket. But no, the libtards want everyone n their nigglets to drive.

>>1840253
In Canada its even worse, I know people who paid insurance for years, and when they get into fender bender both parties pay out of pocket. Why? Because otherwise the premiums double, and you'll pay them the same sum within a year + increased premiums forever. Insurance is only useful when someone is heavily injured in an accident, or you have a tip top new car.

plz no memecoins

Generally you need to know someone. It's usually people in your industry or field is where the offer will come from.

>>1839609
So you need to have a social life?

>>1839624

Businesses don't operate in vacuums, so yes, you need to be social in your life.

Programming is always fun but IT is boring as fuck...

>>1839122
I went to VoTech for A+ and Net+ certifications, got hired at a Help Desk, and quit after 9 years of being passed over for advancements. Now I hate computers and am aiming for a low-tech simple life farming out west.

>>1839135
Aiming more for the programming. Staying away from tech support

I'd be happy to make $200,000 in a year from $2,000,000. It's not possible.

>>1838728
Knee pads and Eth.

If your as retarded as your post, look into blackjack. You might be one of the smart retards.

Invest all of it on Ethereum, thank me later

>SpaceX also wants to send people around the moon next year,
I think this can be a somewhat crucial thing. If this works, it might kickstart a general interest in space (probably not as strong and naive as the space craze around the moon landing), but if Elon Musk just produces some expensive billionaire BBQ, no one will want to have anything to do with space, and he might as well need his boring company to dig a deep hole for him to hide.

Still, it's a risk (as an investment), I'd want to take.

But how?

SpaceX (and blue origin and virgin galactic) is private (as far as I know), so I can't simply walk to my broker and buy some shares in them. And using companies such as Tesla or Amazon as a proxy is a bit far fetched.

>>1838375
The only things I can think of so far, is investing in aerospace and defense firms that also have space operations. But the likes of Boeing and Airbus are tied with government activities, a lot of other stuff but not really the privat (space) sector. While I'd assume they still get a gentle push by a successfull space race, they'll probably not reach orbit any time soon. But on the positive site, they'll probably not crash and burn, if two silicon valley billionaires do.

What companies (startups, pennystocks…) can you actually buy, that might as well go bust, but also might as well go to the moon, as they say, though this time, litterally and figuratively?

So far I have only found a crowdfunding for Deep Space Industries, and while a possible seventupling of my money over 10 years sounds quite good, it's also a rather weird way to invest, when you are used to stocks and shares.

Should I just throw a few hundred this way and hope for the best? Company is legit, but the platform is really new.

Bump.

Seems like you can buy Aerojet Rocketdyne (AJRD), but they appear to be very government and defense tied, though they might be supplying engines to united launch alliance, if they wont get blue origins new engine, but ULA is also a government contractor.

If you wanna look opulent, dress like a rapper and buy an overpriced car. Something like an Aston Martin.

>>1838131

>>1838426
An Aston is the exact opposite of what you described. If you want flashy you get a lambo or Ferrari Astons usually get confused with Fords these days.

>What do you think will happen to the prices of BTC and ETH in the next week?
I'd guess they will rise if there is an ETF, because more demand = more price…

I guess a lot of folks couldn't be arsed to get into that whole bitcoin stuff, but will happily buy an ETF that they can get with their normal trader. I know I will..

>>1837618
>ETF approval is priced in

Well no, ETF approval means millions of dollars worth of bitcoin will need to be purchased by the body issuing the ETF.

>>1837618
>If ETF is approved BTC will increase by 5%

Top kek more like 500%

>asking people on 4chan how they stopped going on 4chan

i think you may have the wrong target audience for this question

>>1837027
For me it wasn't 4chan, it was Slashdot and Hacker News. After reading the book Deep Work by Cal Newport I was so inspired to make something of myself that I just stopped going to the sites. It's hard at first but after a week or so, the addiction starts to fade. So to stop reading 4chan, you have to just stop reading 4chan. It's really that simple.

>>1837058
i spend all my time on 4chan

should i stop doing this?

depends 100,000% on the parents and how big pieces of shit they are

Probably nationalist trade agreements
We're already seeing the rumblings of that within the political realm, it'll likely continue to move that way until most countries become fiercely competitive with one another economically.

>>1836645
Fair trade; moderate broad based tariffs with a decent amount of economic nationalism.

>>1836656
we will see this when the united states of europe crumbles
