This is a business board, so I think this is the right spot. I'm looking for some advice.
I'm in college right now, and planning on going into the business side of the music industry. I've made a few connections, and have been invited to a networking event. Right now I'm majoring in economics or business, maybe a double major, or one with a minor. I'm going into an internship with a record label. Im also the head of the marketing board at my university. I'm really good with people, good with numbers, and love music.
Right now I'm thinking of maybe becoming a CFO of an independent record label, working up to CEO, and then working up to major labels like Sony or Warner Bros? I'm still pretty young and would appreciate any advice or input on careers and my future.
>>1509212
> Start as CFO...
Good luck. Pro tip, you will start by getting coffee.
>>1509217
I realise I can't start as a CFO, that would be completely ridiculous. I'm hopeing the internship can get the coffee out of the way. I have a lot of experience with event running, and might run some events after the internship. If I can't start as a CFO where should I start? I know I could easily get a marketing job or something, but I don't know if that has the growing capability that I'm looking for. End goal, I want to be at the head of a label or CEO, etc. I want to work on nonprofit and volunteer work etc.
>from internship to cfo
is this bait?
Hey /biz/ I grew up with two very loving parents, but money was something that we didn't really have a lot of. I want to raise my kids with them not having to worry about if they will get a present this year or if I can afford to pay for a after school program that they wish to attend, but I'm not exactly sure how I would go about doing this I've looked at stock trading and real estate but I'm still not sure. I would greatly appreciate any feedback

If you feel like you've grown up respectably, perhaps you should attribute a portion of your raising to the lack of luxury. Don't barter your children's affection with money as a substitute for happiness. Sure you don't want to be living in a box, but paying for everything in their post-graduate years out of pocket isn't always a good decision. Sweating a bit in the financial sector teaches the values of risk and discipline. If you want your kids to grow up to be respectable human beings, let em sweat a bit. You also don't have to be a salesman to have a comfortable life, or give your kids tons of shit. Just do what you do best for a profit.
What skills do you already have?
Do you see any of them as marketable?
How much time/money do you have invested in education?
How much debt are you sitting under?

Curious, how does /biz/ store their bitcoins?
>>1509150
cex.io is what I use. They have a .2% taker rate and 0% maker rate
Circle
But I don't use bitcoin much. Circle is very convenient tho
>>1509153
Are these good rates /biz/? Or am I getting ripped off?

You can't teach that. It's either genetic or you just become not retarded and learn how to maximize profits.

What's the harm in buying one lottery ticket a day?
>Play lottery
>Chance of becoming a multi-millionaire is greater than 0
>Don't play lottery
>Chance of becoming a multi-millionaire is 0.
(Statistically the last statement isn't true for all people, but for most people it is - not everyone has a rich uncle and are in a occupation with capped earning potential thus making their chances 0. )
Proveme wrong
>>1509055
Let's see.
Assume you spend (inflation adjusted), $1 on the lottery per day.
That's $365 a year, (inflation adjusted). Assume 7% returns after inflation.
If you do the following from 18 years old until retirement, 67 years old let's say. You'd have the equivalent of $138,000.00.
So a low chance of becoming a millionaire vs. a guaranteed $140K (inflation adjusted) as an oldfag. Which is $600,000 (nominal) assuming 3% inflation.
>>1509055
try r9k

Still not a millionaire though
Is Elon Musk the most intelligent/skillful CEO on the planet?
>Photographic memory
>Expert engineering and business knowledge
>Pursues business ventures that have less than 10% of succeeding
>CEO of two companies at the same time
>Has completely shaken up two hard engineering industries (aerospace and cars)
>Literally wants to go to Mars
How do we emulate him?
>>1509029
Learn everything you can about engineering and space. If you truly want to emulate him, then you're going to need to spend about 16 hour days reading and comprehending and absorbing knowledge that pertain to his fields of study. If you aren't going to give it that kind of dedication, then you aren't going to see results.
>>1509029
>business only around because of Democrats' fetish for alt. energy
>can barely send a rocket in space, much less a Mars mission
>fuels his cars on coal, more polluting than oil, and still virtue signals

What business or actions or services can I make money on that collectively cost less than 500 to start? Getting sick of these grueling warehouse jobs and I need a way to garner a small pool of capital before I can start on the countless ventures I have in mind but have high startup costs.

buy $500 kneepads, then suck 1 trillion dicks for $1 a piece. You'll be the richest person on earth.
>>1509649
There are only 3.5 billion dicks in the world. Do you intend op to suck you off an average of 300 times? Also keep in mind about 30% of those dicks can't even afford the bj.

Hello /biz/.. Counting on my years of market experience, I have created a way of not losing money 100% guaranteed. The secret to not losing money is not having any.

So what does /biz/ think of leveraged index funds. I think the market is going to crash in December but until then I'm thinking of getting a 3x leveraged s and p 500.
They look like they print money
>>1508946
Leveraged ETFs are for daytrading.
If you hold them for months you will get cucked.
>>1508964
They have non day ones. This seems like a good plan. That's a 6 year chart.
>>1508983
>This Ultra ProShares ETF seeks a return that is 3x the return of an index or other benchmark (target) for a single day, as measured from one NAV calculation to the next. Due to the compounding of daily returns, ProShares' returns over periods other than one day will likely differ in amount and possibly direction from the target return for the same period. These effects may be more pronounced in funds with larger or inverse multiples and in funds with volatile benchmarks. Investors should monitor their holdings consistent with their strategies, as frequently as daily. For more on correlation, leverage and other risks, please read the prospectus.
