Nobody?

Yes. Do it. Britain has good prospects despite what is said. And you only have to pay the loan back when you earn over a certain amount. Impossible to go bankrupt.

What about brexit? Isn't it risky? I don't expect it, but what if I won't be allowed to work legally anymore? Do I leave it all behind and go back home?

Well I guess I could just call it an experience and that's all, considering I'll never earn enough in my country to need to pay back anything.

They have fantasies of making exuberant amounts of money like in the wolf of wall street. The reality? You make an upper middle class income and you rarely get to see your family and enjoy the fruits of their labor.

holy shit. i worked 40 hours/week this summer and i was at my limit, HOW. this is making me wonder if i really wanna go in finance and shit

I suggest you compare ex-US world etfs vs the S&P500. You'll find most of the world that isn't the US kinda sucks. You might consider such an ETF as a hedge though if it looks like the US is about to shit the bed.

>>1794373
>though if it looks like the US is about to shit the bed
That's what I'm worrying about, otherwise I would instant go all in on S&P 500

But USA might be a third world shit place in 2040, the whole world is unlikely

[2/2]

Users will only be able to view and match with a subset of nearby app users, based on compatible personality traits and interests. The trait selection UI is going to be intentionally gimmicky, in that it will be set up in a way so that selecting certain traits forces you to exclude others you might also want and include some you don't want. This forces users (and specifically women) to prioritize their interests instead of inputting an unattainable perfect ideal companion into the app.

Additionally, since only nearby users matching your preferences are shown, your options will tend to be more limited. This has the sideaffect of forcing users to be less hyper-selective when using the app, and go out on more actual dates to get to know the people.

Finally, and this part is most important, the app is going to attract users and force them not to be shallow by using using psychological suggestion in the marketing material, as well as within the app itself. Most men are already fed up with the current selection of dating apps for the reasons described above, so getting them to use the app will require less effort. However, in order gain female users, some industrial-scale guilt trips are going to be used. The current generation of women in their 20's have been praised their entire lives and have lost the ability to respond to criticism, and especially criticism coming from an unknown source. This whole app is based on the theory that it should then be possible to shame people into not being shallow with some clever marketing. A series of YouTube video ads will be run that follow hypothetical female Tinder/ Pink/ Bumble users and humorously highlight bad experiences that may result from selecting matches purely based on looks or other shallow criteria, followed by a more positive experience after using Soul. The goal is to make it humorous and impactful enough that it will go viral and drive user conversion for the app.

Is anyone interested?

I'll be making it in Apache Cordova so that it will be cross-platform, by the way.

I sense that, by this, you mean telling women the bad things that might happen to them if they select dates based on unrealistically high standards.

I think what might work at least equally well, if not better, is something like a cute little cartoon video that depicts a superficial ditz swiping left, so to speak, on a list of decent guys, looking for an 11/10 or something, and a disapproving girl, who is also cute but depicted as more down to Earth, who is shown picking your app.

If there's one thing people like, it's feeling like they do things because they're better than others.

>>1794239
Isn't that a tautology?

Take some CC classes, read books/take courses on office software, excel, and programming in VBA and ADO. All in that order

>Live imprisonment without possibility of parole

Holy shit

Is this because he forgot to tip someone?

The best idea is to have a STEM major + languages. In case you want to work at an American company (I assume you are american) the languages might not be needed. But if you knowingly seek out German/Russian/Japanese companies or companies that have relations with those countries,then it will be appreciated. They might send you to courses and company tours abroad, so you can travel, which is always nice. They might see you as a great addition which means higher chance of promotion. Also, you can make connections, also always a good thing. This is coming from a second world country.

I currently live in Germany actually but thanks for the advice. I was already planning on going into some kind of engineering field or just studying mathematics and I suppose it makes the most sense whether you speak multiple languages or not. I feel like it is quite a feat to speak so many languages fluently and it would be a shame if my future employer didn't appreciate it. Suppose I'll have to make do either way. Thanks again.

I haven't ever seen languages help anyone with making more money unless you're a translator.

I don't understand what you're getting at senpai.

does getting a new credit card not affect your credit?

>A high liquidity preference relates to a decreasing slope of the interest rate increase or an increasing negative slope of the decreasing interest rate right?

I just answered my own question. I believe this fundamentally means the long-term interest rate goes down relative to the short-term interest rate.

The second point is still active though, a pretty big quandary for me tbqh.

>>1794815
>A high liquidity preference
depends if its a long term increase in liquidity preference(technology) or a short one(recession)
> How can this be if the amount saved and invested must be equal, which is how the interest rate is determined?
obviously the reality is more complicated than a saving=investment model. Could be that mon ey is fleeing the country(not necessarily a full capital flight scenario, but could be because other countries are a bit safer etc). Other reasons are stuff like fractional reserve banking making them unequal, people hoarding cash etc.

>>1794844
>depends if its a long term increase in liquidity preference(technology) or a short one(recession)
How do you know if the increase or decrease in liquidity is short term or long term?

Not all recessions are short, either. And to be honest with you, the longer the recession the more apt it is to raise the liquidity preference, meaning the rates for long-term investments start improving even during the recession.

The second part of your answer is sufficient because it's something I agree 100% on. I can see how this would be the case.

Don't bother finding a job just find your Zuckerberg.

You're a fucking moron

you will not get paid for ideas.
>solar panels under street lights
like what the fuck
it won't even generate enough energy during the day to power the light the entire night, plus the battery infrastructure makes it an easier and more valuable target for theives.

for one, you would need to flip like 1,200 burgers minimum to make $300.

also torrent sony vegas?

then buy a used 16MP 1080p point and click camera (second hand) for like $60

Show me some of your work and I'll lend you 300 bucks for 300 bucks back and 25% of all your future earnings on youtube

Also you don't need fucking Sony Vegas, there are plenty of good editing tools for free, maybe later when you actually earn 1k per months

Hey man, I'm from argentina.

I can get you a few hoes if you lend me 50k.

do you have any collateral?

>>1791420
What do you mean by collateral?

Look, if you sound foreign and you have an accent, bitches will throw themselves at you. You don't even have to tell them you are loaded.

Also the US dollar goes a very, very long way here.

And I know many bitches like the ones you're asking for.

What makes you think 1k is a lot of money?

>>1786528
It is when it takes 20 minutes to do. Currently with the standing of my eBay account I can cash out $3500/month. I will soon be investing in stealth PayPal and eBay accounts so I can do this on a large scale and make about $20,000/month.

how do you scam people ?
