>>1702303

Investment Banking, if you want a job as a Sys Admin you should get the Cisco certifications and prove yourself and your future employer your value solving problems and expanding networks. And learn about Linux, Unix and Windows server in business (as servers, services...)

It's crashing it's crashing!

TAKE THAT COINER FUCKS!

>>1702219

Back to going up =)

Come back when it drops like $200 or something

>>1702139
not much...

>>1702141
So did you take anything of importance of value from the book?

>>1702139
the book embraces the idea of cash flow and saving money, but it has not solved my employment problem, so it was not exactly useful knowledge.

insurance companies and banks paid him to write the book, but it is still kind of cool how a book almost 100 years old is still relevant today

>>1702114
A friend of mine sold his machine learning voice recognition software startup to Apple.
I think selling tech startups is a lot easier than any other kind.

>>1702318
What is he doing these days?
Just Rollin' in a Lambo?

>>1702345
Nah, he works for apple now. That tends to be the case when a big company buys out smaller ones.

>>1702109
You bought into a meme

Also, who the fuck invests in something with zero idea what its prospects are?

>>1702109
You wasted your money. You should have shorted ETH, LTC, ETC. Anything that was hot last year or hasn't taken off yet should be dumped.

>>1702207
Pretty much this ,a coin only gets 1 shot in crypto land then it just fizzles out ,Bitcoin is the only coin I know of that made a full recovery and reached its ATH again.

You might have some luck with Eth though but it won't moon.

>>1702085
Since it is your first investment, caution should be name of the game. DCA over the course of, say, a month, imo.

>>1702085
Like always it comes down to risk vs rewards.

Lump sum= higher risk/higher return
DCA = lower risk/lower return

If you emotionally can't handle a little drawdown then you'll feel better with DCA.

>>1702085
>should i dump them all into the fund at once?

Yes.

>or should i dollar-cost-average over a few months?

You should invest AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. As in as soon as you get money or a paycheck.

Lump sum has shown to be superior long-term, mathematically.

INVEST IT ALL.

self bump

How do you short btc

Throw you're many out the window, same effect.

Safest way to improve your brain function is to take fish oil daily. Cod liver oil is good, salmon oil is better. Keep that shit refrigerated.

Dietary fats are very important for the brain.
Basically, you need to cut vegetable oil, margarine, and trans fats out of your diet. They are poison.

You can still eat hamburgers and fries and such, but you'll have to make them yourself using natural fats, like grass-fed dairy butter, coconut oil, and olive oil. Out of all these, olive oil is the safest and the cheapest. Just don't fry with it at high temperatures - burnt or rancid fat of any kind is unhealthy.

The kind of fat you find in eggs, meat, fish, olives and avocadoes is perfectly healthy. Don't ever waste time on fat free anything.

You should also improve your sleep. Allocate at least 8 hours, make sure the lights were dim for hours before that, use redshift or f.lux on your laptop, and take some magnesium citrate with a fat source just before you go to sleep, e.g. buttered toast or some olives.

That's enough to get you started.

Further subjects for research:
Fat soluble versus water soluble nutrients (fr example, magnesium is fat soluble, can't be absorbed any other way, which is one reason you need to eat good fat)
HDL versus LDL cholesterol
Diet and testosterone
Testosterone and brain function
Estrogenic versus androgenic foods

I'd break down A-C but most of them are answered the same way -

>1.)
Improve your work ethic, memorization is easy if you're constantly teaching yourself something daily. Memory stagnates if all you do is play vidya abd watch anime.

Work Ethic directly translates into people having a better opinion of you, making it easier to befriend useful people you work around.

And if you're constantly learning, you "learn" to learn by constantly practicing.

Best way to accomplish this is reading non-fiction habitually. I personally read at minimum a chapter a day of whatever novel I'm reading (usually average 3-5 chapters throughout a day depending on free time/boredom). Generally I focus my book-learning to economics, psychology, and linguistics because I find all three fascinating.

>2.)
The required skills for an amazing life (more specifically with making useful allies/friends) are as follows:
- Public Speaking
Public Speaking is one of the greatest things for a person to even be considered okay at. If you can present without fluency breaks (saying "uhhh" or "like") a lot of people will genuinely be impressed by you.
(Read: "The Exceptional Presenter" - basically a great how-to guide on perfecting your ability to speak, and how to look like a bad ass doing it)
- Influencing Others
Other half of life in terms of dealing with humans is the art of influence. You have to understand how to get people to do what you want through mutual interest and not your own selfish interest.
(Recommend: "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie, amazing book that outlines everything someone needs to adapt to the world as a sociable normie.)

>3.)
Form. Good. Fucking. Habits. (And lose your bad habits)

This is a lot simpler and wide-spread than you'd think, but good habits are key to fostering everything from your daily motivation to get shit done to improving your skills at socialization and intelligence.

Always start out small, you have to do something for a minimum of 20 days in a row (without stopping) for it to start to become habitual in manner.

I recommend something easy-tier, like:
>Making your bed every morning
(gives you a small sense of cleanliness right after waking up, along with being an auto-pilot kinda activity to help ease you into waking up)
>Reading 20 minutes a night before going to sleep
Easy to accomplish, and often helps you sleep better by taking your mind off the day. (Plus the old belief that learning before bed is one of the best times to do so)
> Take a multi-vitamin every morning with a full breakfast
You will feel 20x better throughout the day if you do this daily. We all kinda forget being kids where they pushed the whole "breakfast is the most important meal of the day" meme, but it's actually true. Eating a balanced breakfast (I usually have eggs, toast, and a bowl of healthy cereal) gives you a fuck load of energy you wouldn't have if you don't eat breakfast. The multivitamin will also make you healthier over time because everyone is missing something in their diet. (Being healthy = accomplishing all three of your goals easily)
Once you have a couple of habits like that down, you just build on them with more/harder habits like
>working out 4-5 times weekly
>eating 3 full meals a day
>reading a novel a week
>reading every chapter in a book twice (finish ch 1, repeat ch 1, finish 2, repeat 2; personally learned this in highschool, it's always stuck with me now after years of doing it and I feel i understand what I read far better as a result)
>perfecting a hobby
>learning languages

Tldr -
Habits are the basis of life. Get good habits, get a good life.

>no degree or trade school yet

Just tell him you held back because you felt uncomfortable about rejecting his well-intended offer, but you aren't interested.

>>1701757
If I was NEET I would scrounge up what money I could and buy a cheap plot of land in idaho and work at a gas station or walmart part time and grow my own food. If I didnt survive, it wouldnt be much of a loss.

They do. But your real question is : Am I able to make an app go viral ?

And the response is no.

>>1701778
Well maybe I can follow a plan of successful apps and look at trends. Also some viral marketing and shill accounts. Hell, if I get some money saved then maybe I can convince some youtubers with a decent viewer base to play this new "addicting" game. Again, might not reach flappy bird success but is this still a good idea?

>>1701738
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rJzLoz0zIQ

Example of a game that contains "the brainless reward" system app that was given to a youtuber who was paid to promote the app to his "decent amount of youtube 'gamer' audience"

Best case scenario, and it can't be propelled any further.

A game will be popular if its good.
A game can be viral naturally, but not forced.

The likelihood of you producing a naturally fun and well composed game, while also being able to spread your knowledge of the market while also knowing the youtubers/marketing area you want and having the funds to pay them.... you're hitting the 1% of the 1% of the 1% success and thats not including the issues of producing a well produced game.

The real problem, if its apps that you're looking for, is to make 10 smaller game apps, that aren't great/perfect/viral and get the crumbs from the table. 10 small crumbs are a small bite. 1 massive undertaking of several fields at an attempt to force a viral sensation at a near impossible rate for a big slice.. I just dont see it happening.

take the 50-500$ a month an app over 10 apps over the course of their life and focus on other projects. Use those projects as a stepping stone into a good resume and use that to step into a bigger potential company and take a piece of their pie.

>>1701662
There are universities giving degrees in hospitality and hotel management. If you don't want to go back to school, at least get copies of course outlines, reading lists and textbooks. Do your homework first.

>>1701744
How long would something like this take to study, ideally?

>>1701750
Google shit like this

https://www.coursehero.com/file/10772231/syllabus-HMGT-771-Spring-2015/

University of X Hospitality Management Hospitality Syllabus.

Collect all the texts. using libgen or torrents or something.

Read them.

I feel like I could get a handle on a 2 year hospitality degree in about 5 months if I mixed that up with shit like this:

http://study.com/articles/List_of_Free_Online_Hotel_Management_Courses_and_Lessons.html

after youve read it all, make your own conclusions, get a loan, and fuckin do it. Some business degree courses are good too.

Of course, the most successful hotels and b&bs ive seen are run by a couple friendly gay guys that cook a mean breakfast, or some grandma who understands service means treating guests like family.

>college is a scam

This is what people who either weren't smart enough to get in to college or not smart enough to be successful out of college tell themselves to feel better about their mediocracy.

Depends on what you do.

>>1701639
Exactly. If you go to school for dance or exercise science, you can't complain when you are living in a cardboard box.
