Worked in retail aswell because I quickly needed a new job. Get out of there asap, you can't even save shit up for investing and stuff with that shit salary.

You literally have no idea how hard I've tried. Its so hard living in a eastern european shithole.
What if there wasn't a stock exchange or banks?
Would the economy still crash?
>>1492567
why should anyone bother to try to answer your stupid hypothetical question?
Fuck this thread and Fuck you Op.
>>1492568
>>1492567
we would be in medieval age.
people would trade their stuff for other stuff they need. No currency.
Would people invest in a crypto brokerage?
A startup where people would invest money in traders (or even a software that automatically trades) and received profit from it?
Is this a feasible startup?
>>1492564
Yes.
People are stupid, or rather we have enough idiots for you to have a good costumer base.
>>1492564
I'd probably be the worst trader to invest in. I haven't made any real gains in 40 days. I'm still stuck where I started from.
Idk about others and I'm sure it would draw in some idiots eventually, but the big draw to trading crypto for me is the complete unnecessity of a brokerage.
Being able to buy and sell for mega-low fees with complete control over your money and access to far more information on the market than free stock charts will ever give you (market depth charts, volume, buy/sell orders) is what makes it great for anyone to start trading without the need for a broker.
Starting a crypto hedge fund would be a different story, but you have to be able to prove your gains are good on a consistent basis.
All things Amazon.
Anyone buying or selling on Amazon? What are your tips/secrets?
Couple things I've done or discovered:
1. Amazon FBA is great if you have a bunch of misc to get rid of and little time. eBay beats them in terms of profit, but definitely not effort nor time.
2. If you review enough products on Amazon you can & will receive messages from sellers for discounts, free products, promotions, etc. If you're careful and NEET enough you can re-sell them for profit too.
3. Stack the above with No Rush credit and you get free Kindle eBooks, prime videos, etc.
4. You can transfer money and/or money launder using Amazon-
Make a new Amazon account under a pseudo name and add your gift card balance there. On your normal account, make a seller profile if you haven't already, and list an item, such as a used high end computer, which will total (with shipping) at $1500. Then, buy the item with your gift card from your other account. Make sure you are buying from the correct seller under the "other buying options" page. It's important to purchase the item from the new (fake) account, as Amazon will verify that the sale seems legit. When entering a shipping address for the "seller" (you) use any address not associated with your main account. On your seller account, you will have to verify that you have shipped the item, and then amazon will eventually deposit the money into the bank account that you linked with the seller account. This takes awhile, but you get the most money this way.
Amazon takes a small percentage of your sale, but it should be nothing compared to selling the gift card somewhere else.
General Amazon thread
5. Buy college textbook as eBook on Amazon. Remove DRM and convert to PDF. Return eBook to Amazon claiming something along the lines of "I decided to drop the class". Free college textbooks. Super easy with "calibre".
In most cases where that might not work, I can typically find a torrent, though I'm much more wary of those sources.
>>1492490
Did you ocr then sell the pdf to everyone in your class for $10 each
>>1492494
Actually I copy pasted that one from somewhere else, but good call
6. Amazon mTurk is basically a fancy/more exclusive version of SwagBucks where they pay you beer money for surveys, information, etc
7. Amazon Mom discounts are up to 20% on mostly baby products and are available to everyone willing to fill out a form pretending they have a baby
8. Amazon student discounts are available if you have access to a .edu email and offer extra discount
9. Amazon Subscribe & Save is another 5-10% discount and can be immediately cancelled, the only bitch is the delay in shipping
>part time job gives my laughably high amounts of holidays that I never even expected to get

>work 4 days/week
Still want to kill myself. OP is correct.
>>1492478
Is this the UK? Do you work in summers or not? Also is it really a hellish 70 hours a week job or is that just women whining?
>>1492481
Not that poster, but you can make it bad for yourself, it really depends on where you teach. My gfs mom is a principle/teacher/nurse because her school is underfunded and understaffed. She has been working 70 hour weeks for months now. But if she stopped giving a fuck, she could just work 40 and let everything sort itself out. Or she could move to another job at somewhere with a better wage and better hours, but she feels too attached to her place.

i don't blame you whiny fucks for quitting these jobs. think i can use this on my resume or will they try to burn the bridge i'm building?
>>1492372
>building a bridge at McPlebs
I can't work pleb jobs. I feel my IQ has to drop 30 points just so others can be on the same page. Wageslave once, never again. Read, learn, and take advantage of ignoramuses.
>>1492372
Now is when you look for a different job while working this one.
Managers love to take advantage of staff/wagecucks. So you should take full advantage of companies whenever you can. There is no loyalty in business.
I feel you OP. Now flipping coins instead of burgers
Just came back from an Amway recruitment seminar.
What a fucking joke! The guy who recruited me had me convinced to go, although I was sceptical (of course)
So, I went for the hell of it. Man, what a bunch of nutjobs.
Anyone have an opinion on this shit?
Here's a pretty good review with some obvious shills in the comment section.

>>1492279
I remember in the 70's when they got shut down for being a pyramid scam. not much has changed since then from what I've seen.
>>1492283
It was like a fucking cult man. I saw a guy I know there and after it was over, we were talking. I asked if he wanted to get a coffee and talk a bit about it, but he got all scared looking and said " who did you come here with?"
When I told him who invited me, he got even more scared and told me that he can't have coffee with me.
It was so fucked up. I left there and tried to explain it to my gf, but I don't even know how
So I found a way to make 400$ CAD a day, but this requires online deposits to bank account of 3000$ every day, then taking cash out for account ~2600, rinse and repeat
this involves BTC
what legal issues will I run into in canada? is it considered money laundering? what do I need to do so I can pay taxes and be safe?
400 CAD what is that like 3 USD?
>>1492285
less
>>1492265
Your post basically says that you put in 3k and take out 2600 and somehow make money?
More details please.
>Index funds
>Thinking you can beat the market when algorithmic computers and PHD holders can't
>>1492231
you are correct.
index funds are for fedoras
>>1492241
i like how these are consistently racist.
Is it possible to be successful at a company if you don't drink their kool-aid?
>>1492158
You at least have to do a passable job faking it. Or be extrodinary at what you do. Which one do you think people do?
>>1492158
yeah, critics, gadflies and whistleblowers can have their place in management.
they're probably not going to want you leading any teams though.
a lot of big companies also have forgotten positions where you don't have to interact with people or toe the company line.
>>1492163
I had a buddy, did 128% of full year plan. He hustled fucking hard. Company trotted him out infront of all the other reps constantly. He had a nervous break down and refused ALL company based attention. He avoided work functions to the point that he quit one day from all the harassment.
Being good didn't protect his job. Sucking shit from management did. Lots of shitty reps sucked shit and got higher wages, better territories ect. My buddy? He got paid about 18K less than comparable and worse reps.
whats the end all be all trade to learn?
Welding
>>1492146
Welding or electrical.
>>1492146
There isn't one. Pick something specialized to earn more or pick something more general for more oppertunities.
>not buying IMNP
Its like you faggots arent even trying to be rich. Stay poor
>>1492142
is IMNP back? I lost like $200 On that one last time it was shilled
>>1492170
You have to be patient and not panic-sell. Its all a repetitive cycle of downs and lows, always buy low and sell high. NEVER sell at a loss, even if you lose your WHOLE investment.
I'm all in
Still going to sell before the 15th, these things NEVER go well. Ride the hype and get out before the news.
I'm starting an online perfume store that ships worldwide.
Thoughts? Suggestions? tips? I really want to get rich and fuck bitches.
What's your point of differentiation?

>>1492115
haha it's not even possible
products that sell based on hype and social traction require massive capital investment in marketing
who will promote you that isn't already invested in direct retail sales, or combined supply/marketing packages
"supermarkets" of perfume lack the irrational hype value that generates the profit, you could beat the prices of stores and still not get turnover
you arn't the first guy to try this
the supply chain is all owned by the same people, the designer, producer, distributor is all the same guy
at what point do you think mr. unilever is going to sell his products to you; knowing full well you intend to undercut him
if you invented a new scientific product, it would be worth more to the big players than yourself, they would buy the ground from under your feet
if anything, I'd build with the aim of being bought out
undercut them until they make you an offer
make no money, just exist as a thorn in their sides
I hate paying rent. I'm thinking of spending 1.5 mil for a condo in SoHo convince me not to. right now i'm spending 6500 a month on rent
>>1492114
if you can afford it and plan on staying a while you might as well. Condos usually come with association fees which up the price though.
>>1492114
>6500 a month
Just burn your money man thatd be a lot more effecient
>>1492114
Use that money to buy land in the South/Midwest. You can get much more bang for you buck.
