Start a business doing something that any idiot can do.
Mowing lawns is good.
Charge slightly less than the competition.
Take on more work than you can do by yourself.
Hire others to help you.
Get more work.
Wash, rinse and repeat until you have enough work to hire a manager, then a salesman. Then a couple more for good measure.

Take your $18k and blow it on hats.

This is what I was planning on doing once I get some experience in actual computer repair jobs but I'm wary if I can succeed or not on my own.

>I'm wary if I can succeed or not on my own.
it costs very little to find out.

I personally pay $50 for a business license, $1000 a year for liability insurance if I don't have employees, $60/month for a business phone that comes with a yellow pages listing, and about a thousand a year on advertising.

your expenses grow as your business does, but you can worry about that when it happens.

The chicks you describe will fuck you and forget you as soon as an even prettier dude shows up. Furthermore, other pretty dudes are also open to having the advantages of actually going someplace in life/having money/having a good job.

Focus on a career path.

Also never post McKayla Maroney ever again. She's my waifu.

>>1485992

You think that the women who'd go for a NEET would run off with someone more successful even though they could already do that?

McKayla Maroney is erryone's waifu mang.

How do you do it OP?

>>1485944
Ooh, that's a good one.
I want to, but can never bring myself to do it.

>>1485944
I'm pretty sure it's $UREE

Do you even have Thread?

Good emerging investment opportunities, shitty business idea.

It'll cap, effectively, for small investors/businessmen when the market gets saturated and big agri gets involved. A regulatory crackdown will accompany this and herald big agri's move into marijuana.

in austria its very hard to buy marijuana

10 mil

$20

I don't need much. Just $2M with 3% annual withdrawal.

X-coin are memes, do not take seriously.

>>1485768
Were they not saying the same things about Bitcoin? I'd only put into it something I'm not too concerned about potentially losing. Like 50 dollars or so.

>>1485775

Why not invest in McDonalds, then?

You can have something real and you probably won't make any money either way.

Obviously start your own company and undercut them with illegal immigrant labour/chinese manufacturing, then once they are out of business raise your prices.

>>1485763
Other than the illegal part this is solid advice.

if you can take a chunk of their sales from them they'll quickly try to buy you out. Even if you're just a threat they'll likely make you an offer or two. Either way, it's then up to you- take their offer and maybe go to work for them, or keep right on eating their breakfast until they work for you.

personally I went the second route- over the years I've bought out or competed out more small businesses than I have fingers and toes.

>>1485795
I was thinking of this also. The process they use to create their product uses 3D printing, and the price is pretty high IMO, although I'm not sure what filament they use.

Currently researching ways to make my own filament through recycling and such. Thanks for the confirmation, that's great to hear you've had success!

Where do I buy these things

>>1485745
Depends on country you reside in.

>>1485752
Is this your own product?

Use Times New Roman 12 pt.

Be prepared with an explanation for your period of unemployment.

>>1485722
I've always heard you're not supposed to do that because it seems like you didn't put thought into your resume.

Also, what period? April-Graduation? That will be fairly easy since I had a trip abroad, and my schedule is kinda fucked.

>>1485721
Some off-handed thoughts, without going into too much detail:
- Use Times New Roman or another serifed font.
- Abbreviate: B.S., B.B.A.
- Good work experience bullet points. I'd see if you can't make them more terse and maybe add some space between the bullets, though not a full line.
- Good shortening of the food place work.
- I'd try to get better extracurriculars or at least sell the finance society one better
- Kill "PowerPoint, Word, and Excel," and just mention it quickly in relation to the other more intense programs you have experience with.

More broadly: You better have a really, really good reason why it took you 5 years. A 3.33 GPA isn't outright awful, but it looks bad that you're taking 5 years when many people get out in 4 (and sometimes doubling in 3). In other words, if I was a hiring manager, I'd see that and wonder why you weren't able to get better grades with the extra time you had - think about it and come up with a reason that isn't "lol stress"

To be clear, w/r/t the other post, you'll want to explain the periods of unemployment, not mention them on your resume. You'll do fine.

I sure hope you have it in a savings account generating interest

Invest in BBD.B ASAP just an opinion....

WE'RE HEADING FOR VENUS

11 hours and we will see
Heard rumors that they were developing something interesting

>would treating myself to 10% of profits be too much?
reward yourself, but not too much. 10% is great.

>day trading

Top kek. Buy and hold or passive index funds/ETFs

>>1485523
10% is great. Now create a diverse portfolio including high dividend stocks, buy up some bonds for safety, then compound interest my friend.

I'd settle for a GF who doesn't want to waste money on useless shit.

>>1485458
doesn't it suck? just lie to her and hide your money somewhere safe.

>>1485504

She's a very demanding woman.

>>1485379
Poor people. They never have money cause they spend it all. Flashy designs, high prices, and lots of advertising will get you places.

>>1485403
This. I had a boss say you don't make money off rich people, you make money off poor people.
It is mainly because there are so many and a lot of them are stupid.

>>1485403
this, plus old people (especially women)

they buy hundreds of millions if not billions of shitty beauty products online each year
