Is there any way to make a gym viable? I'm not talking millionaire viable, just enough that I'd outpace my salary at Shittigroup evetually (not difficult since from what I hear 3% in the norm raise)
What are small business loans like in terms of ease of access, interest?
Location is upstate NY (Rochester or Buffalo), so not the largest markets
I would have 1 partner in this venture. He is a trainer, I have an accounting/business background
Classes classes classes. Women go to classes, and classes pay.
Gym equipment isn't cheap.
Remember, money from membership is not tied to how much they use the gym. There's no incentive to limit membership based on the availability of the equipment.
Weights and classes = low overheads. Pool and sauna = high overheads. Machines are in the middle.
Fluff is easier to sell than hard work.
Souce: accountant and gym rat. Your mileage may vary

Good morrow, fellow /fit/izen
Good points.
I would imagine we would have 2 types of classes. 1 type for lifters, where we can teach form and whatnot. A second for women with cardio, bodyweight shit like all the fad "boot camp" programs
I've also heard that tanning brings in a decent amount for gyms
>>1421085
Try get a crossfit accreditation too. They'll fuck you on fees etc but they bring in good money from classes.
Hello all.
I'm going to be getting rid of some things on Ebay.
I wanted to hear experiences with linking PayPal.
Does anyone link PayPal to their direct checking account?
Regards.
Dont use paypal cause the faggots will block your money
Why?
>>1421004
I have bank checking account linked to paypal. You have to do it in order for it to become verified. it's not a big deal.
>>1421007 is saying that because if you get so many transactions or total amount (I forget exactly how it works) they freeze the account until you get in touch and verify your account credentials. This includes linking the account to a bank, and if i remember right two forms of ID, one with a picture. Might be ur SS too, can't remember
Either way though, it's not a big deal as long as youre being legit and not some nigerian scammer or previously banned by ebay.
Also other guys retarded because without paypal you wont be able to sell to like 99% of ebay users, and I -think- you HAVE to have a paypal to even get an ebay seller account.
I just spent €30 on something stupid I didn't need and now I feel like shit for doing it. I know €30 is nothing, but I'm pretty jewy. I fucking hate myself now.

How come you dumb lefties don't bash Amazon? They are killers of small businesses and have actually done more damage to small businesses than Wal-Mart ever has. All Wal-Mart did was kill mom and pop stores, which no one liked anyway. At least Wal-Mart had to get permission from the community to build their stores.
What Amazon does is, notice a 3rd party seller is making a fortune off of a certain product, then proceeds to directly contact the manufacturer and sell the product themselves while undercutting their 3rd party seller, sometimes even taking a loss to drive out the 3rd party seller. This is how Amazon has been able to succeed in carrying so many products, by taking advantage of small business owners.
Barack the stupid nigger has done nothing to stop these monopolistic practices of corporations because they donate to him and his party. Google is in bed with our government and also holds a monopoly. Not one company has been investigated or fined for monopolistic practices under king nigger's administration.
1. As long as people keep blaming the president for not doing congress' job, congress will continue not doing their job.
2. Bashing Amazon won't accomplish anything. What you should do is stop giving Amazon money. This is capitalism, your vote doesn't mean shit, your dollar does.

>What Amazon does is, notice a 3rd party seller is making a fortune off of a certain product, then proceeds to directly contact the manufacturer and sell the product themselves while undercutting their 3rd party seller
Gee Maybe that wouldn't happen if the seller manufactured the product himself here in the USA?
Do you even love freedom? poser
>>1420935
He seems to do just fine without congress. Existing laws already give him the power to do a lot of actions but he won't because he's a crybaby who only wants to push transgenders in the military and prosecute states that don't allow pedophiles into bathrooms.
So, /biz/. Why aren't you investing in Amazon right this second?
http://www.cnbc.com/2016/08/01/amazon-will-be-a-trillion-dollar-company-expert-predicts.html
Because I have a small amount of money and its all invested in DRAM
i dont trust this "prediction".. i only trust in /biz/
>>1420910
D-DRAM, anon? A penny tech stock?!
>Tfw you buy a shitcoin and the rest buy the correct coin which goes for the moon.
I hate my coin, it's so shitty and can't even suck my dick properly.
How's your gf qt 3.14 coin in bed, anonymous?
I bought RISE
I thought it was gonna go moon
I bought NAV, which I thought was going from 1k to 12k, but some douchebags keep walling it everytime it tries to raise. Now I'm stuck with half my money in NAV trying to make a profit while ETC is mooning.
>>1420885
I bought MGT. It's aight
Should I study Economics in university if I want to be rich?
If you want to be an economics teacher yes
>>1420820
Fuck no. You learn economics on your own time, and at most take Micro and Macro at uni, but there's no need to pay to go beyond that. Pick something in STEM for your major.
>>1420820
If you enjoy being a wagekek, then yes you will love it
I am thinking of working in australia for 6-12 months soon doing barwork or some shit like that.
Because brexit made the notsogr8 british pound go to shit I'm thinking of exchanging money back to GBP so when I come back I'll have £££££.
What is the cheapest way to convert ozbucks to GBP? Off the top of my head I was thinking of buying bitcoin with the ozbucks and selling them via my UK account, but with bitcoin going to shit and being generally un-fucking-stable this doesn't seem like the best way
thanks br0s
>>1420806
I'm an Australian. Your best bet is to open an Australian Citi bank plus bank account and deposit all your wages in there. Then withdraw it all out for no fee at an atm back in Great Cucktain.
>>1420851
hmm... but I want to keep it in my bank account in the UK, by the time I finish work the pound might have risen again
anyone know how to transfer money with minimal cost?

So my wife and I visited a comic book store that also sells a few games and toys, but little more, and my wife was instantly inspired to open something similar in the vacant storefront next door. The rent is cheap and I'm all for this, but we desire to complement, rather than compete with with our comic book-oriented neighbor. There are plenty of retro-used game stores in the area, and another that specializes in vintage toys, so those options are probably out. For our specialty, I can only think that we'd focus solely on selling and renting of card and board games. Is this a good idea? What else?
It's an awful idea. Your target demographic is tiny, rely on their parents for money, and are way more likely to buy anything over the internet. All the other store has to do is carry and underprice whatever you start selling until you're broke.
You and your wife sound like fat, ugly retards. So, might as well go for it.
>>1420765
Not a huge market. Not a good idea to open up right next to the same type of store. Abort.
>>1420779
Actually, she's got nice ASSets. I put her in behind the register in cos-play mode, and she'd be sure to score sells with horny virgin dorks.
>yfw nocoiners missed the dip AGAIN
>>1420726
How long till it gets back to £500?
Nocoiners.. when will they learn?
fast cash, flip a coin for $100 profit easy in a few days.. Nocoiners will always remain ignorant and live in darkness and poverty
How dirty are you willing to get for the sake of money?
Has anyone here gone dumpster diving or picked through other peoples trash to look for items to sell?
Do you normally hit residential areas or commercial dumpsters?
What are some of your best hauls?
Do you dig around the sides or do you get inside the dumpster?
Any other "trash-y" stories you want to share?
I recently started doing this and have been sourcing a decent amount to sell back online.
Yeah I dumpster dive sometimes.
Lately I've been hitting the jackpot - half eaten slices of pizza, multiple! I'm not sure sure if people threw out a half eaten slice because they weren't hungry... or if it was a full slice that was half eaten by rats. Oh well.
I also found a half filled syringe 2 weeks ago so I tried it. wasn't bad
I'll go first. Here is this mornings mini-haul.
I found this in less than five minutes checking the dumpster next to my work this morning before my shift started.
I should be able to get ~$130 for them according to the Amazon app.
Both of the classical sets are new in factory packaging.

- what if you employed homeless people to do it for you and pay them in cheap alcohol

--FAQs for Robinhood--
Visit the website first - www.robinhood.com
If you're not into robinhood - http://www.stockbrokers.com/offers
> How is it free?
They invest your unsettled funds after a trade.
It's also pretty basic software.
> When is it coming to my country?
Probably never. They only have plans on an Australian beta ( https://robinhood.com/au/).
> It's been X days, why isn't my account isn't verified yet?
If it takes more than 3 days, try emailing their support. They are very good.
> Is this the right place to pump and dump and/or shill a worthless stock?
You have found the right image board ;)
> I hit sell when the stock was X.XX, but it actually sold at a lower price, am I being jewed?
No, that would actually be illegal. Robinhood graphs are just shit and only show you an average, not-really-realtime price. To get Bid/Ask prices and important things like candlestick graphs, you should use a more robust platform.
> Where can I get better charting or bid/ask?
thinkorswim is bretty gud if you want to go open a second account with real broker.
Otherwise you should be using Yahoo/Google finance or even Stocktwits for your graphing in addition to Robinhood.
>How do I git gud?
http://www.investopedia.com/terms/c/candlestick.asp?layout=infini&v=5F&orig=1&adtest=5F

No, its not applicable for limited margin accounts (instant), and if you don't have instant, RH won't let you buy with unsettled funds

Yes, download an android emulator. Setup is extremely easy. http://www.memuplay.com/

I had some collectible ninja turtle statues a few years back. I wound up having two of one because reasons, so I held onto the spare until I needed/wanted some cash.
They initially cost like $250 bucks, I sold it for $1,600.
I've had multiple pretty good deals over the years including:
-bought a watch for less than a dollar, turned out it was worth 150ish
-bought an old antique doll for 2-3 dollars, turned out it was worth 250
-bought one of those white robot toys (the original one was Robosapian, forget the others), for 2-3 bucks, was worth 75 or so
-bought a Sega Pico system with like 10 games for around 15 bucks. Sold it to a guy in germany for 250
