What is "sales"

>Daily reminder that having employees is not worth the hassle, either as a business owner or manager in a company.
employees aren't a hassle to a business owner. Only to managers.

your mistake is assuming an owner must also be a manager. This isn't true. So while you're laboring under your mistaken assumption, millions of business owners are making far more money than you with far less work.

>>1763508
Strange how basically all of history is proving you wrong and large corporations with heaps of employees are often among the most stable and profitable businesses. Guess the people responsible for like 80% of world GDP haven't yet seen the light as you apparently did. Bunch of idiots scaling their business models up, when they could be smart and labour away themselves all the time!

No

Doing your mom's taxes for 10$ doesn't count as running an accounting firm, anon.

>>1763370
depends on how successful the firm is. people can own any type of business and run it, but if it's a meme and doesn't generate any profit then that's not successful

Lookup some rough numbers for mortgages in Norway.

How much does a starter home cost in an area you want to live?
As a first-time buyer, what % down does the bank require for a mortgage?

Those two give you an idea of how much to save for your house. Your emergency fund is up to you (6-12 months living expenses).

3.2% is a shit return though, and you're young, so put anything beyond that amount in a globally diversified portfolio of equities.

>>1763507
Do you have real estate listings in Norway?

What bank do you use? Does their website have a section for mortgages?

>>1763530
OP here (from work PC). I use a bank named "Nordea" It's also used in a few other scandinavian countries. You need to have 15% equity to loan cash for house.


> Do you have real estate listings in Norway?
What do you mean? I can lookup prices of people selling their houses, if that is what you mean.

Get an offer letter before graduating and call up our boss and explain you want to go on a holiday before starting work. most companies will be fine with this.

>>1763269
What kind of a break? How long do you want to take a break?

It's going to be a huge red flag when you start applying. If you need a break after getting your degree it signals you don't have a strong work ethic. Say after working a year or two at a new company, are you going to say you "need a break"?

>>1763278
Like a month long break. 2 weeks of vacation and 2 of r and r.

I currently work 30 hours a week in an internship and go to 3 classes.

I think 401ks are supposed to be invested in a way that beat inflation, but then again I do not pay much attention to them as I expect to be dead long before I could withdrawal penalty free anyhow.

>>1763229
For whatever reason, most retirement calculators online don't seem to account for inflation.

Easiest way to deal with this is to ignore inflation entirely and adjust your expected rate of return accordingly. Ex. if your investments have an expected rate of return of 7% and you expect inflation to average 3%, use 4% as your expected rate of return in calculations.

Here's an example. Vanguard is nice enough to call out the fact that they don't account for inflation.

That said, I think a lot of people are misled by these calculators, put in their 401k's 10 year average return without adjusting for inflation, and end up saving way less than they'll eventually need.

>But what a co-founder would be useful for
Keeping the company alive after you're hit by a bus. Which is pretty important for investors.

>>1763188
>Taking 50% of your shit.

You need a co-founder to give your company backbone.

Alone, you have $2500, 1set of hands, one mind, and can do a limited amount of stuff.

With a co-founder, (A good co-founder) you have $5000, an extra set of hands, and can do twice as much.

A leader is just another person if no one is fallowing him.

>>1763188
Is it a tech company?
If yes, do you want another technically competent founder or someone who has "business" experience?

Do you know here to find a co-founder?
It can be quite challenging to find someone who actually WANTS to work, trust me, been there done that.

AMA you want

if you are good with computers you can invest in a software and you can almost triple your investment

Pretty cool huh(casually walks around his expensive rented cars and rented house). I got this with knaaaaahhhhhledge

>>1763121
He just rents all that shit. The only reason he is "successful" is by people falling for his bullshit. If you like this guy you'd probably be the kind of person to buy a pet rock or trumpcoin.

>>1763121
The most valuable info you can get from this guy is the way he promotes himself/his "67 steps" program rather than the actual content is selling. You can actually learn a LOT by carefully paying attention to his advertising/viral marketing techniques. Watch his videos, follow his twitter, and instagram. Everything this guy says, posts, etc is carefully written and designed to sell. His first "here in my garaage" video was easily one of the best direct marketing campaigns in the last few years, and it didn't even have huge production value. Just a couple rented exotics and a AirBNB in the Hollywood Hills (although now he has enough cash to actually rent the place lol).

Go long VTI

>>1763063
if you have the patience not to pull out your investment if its performing bad at the moment or pull it out cause you need cash quickly on hand then yes its a good idea

>>1763068
Not available in my country

Yes I only save what I can afford

>>1763001
Why not go for a telemarketing center? Minimum wage either way, equaully shit-tier work, but at least you can improve at it and get more commision.
If you really excel you even get to have non-shit jobs within the company.

>>1763001
No, work construction because you get paid more and its basically being paid to get in shape.

How is it that autistic NEET's always end up at call centers?

It's always the same type of person
>Spends way too much of their paycheck on useless shit like streetwear or weed/booze
>Spends way too much of their time on useless shit like League/DOTA/WoW/CS
>Never does laundry until room reaches critical mass
>Will go to work and brag about how difficult it is entering number on a screen to friends, and will constantly remind them of WHAT he spent his money on


Had 2 roommates turn into this in the course of the 5-6 I had throughout college, and both times it ended up exactly like you.
