>Work for food distribution company at IT help desk fixing registers and shit at store level
>Competitor goes under, massive layoffs from opposing side
>Our company picks up some of their old IT managers
>Our management team instantly turns to shit
>Start playing favorites, promoting friends from the competitor's company that don't deserve it
>Move IT help desk into freezing server room behind electro-magnetic lock
>No windows, no contact with the outside world other than inbound calls for 10+ hours per day
>Competitor's old employees starting HR games with our company veterans
>Half of our old timers get fired for shit that literally never happened
>Complain to company heads and HR about management killing the IT department
>"If you don't like it, find another job!"
Jumped ship 2 months later, never looked back. Word is they're trying to outsource the department now because turnover soared and the ones that stay don't give a fuck 'cause they might get fired on a whim.

Hey /biz/,
What do you think of tax credits for startups in the United States? I have a limited knowledge of state-by-state programs but have gathered that most states tailor their programs to meet certain regional needs. Vermont has food production accelerators/credits, Louisiana has water management accelerators/environmental cleanup tax credits, and New York State has tax credits available to life sciences programs that utilize state university resources. Does anyone here have knowledge or experience with tax credit programs that work directly with small businesses?

Hey /biz/ so I know in the RH general threads it says its not available in many countries.. does that mean in the app store or even if you've downloaded it you can't use it there? I'm traveling to China tomorrow and I'm concerned about if I'll have access to it, to buy/sell and also to withdraw and deposit money if needed. If I'm worried about this should I just take all of my money out of it before my flight? Or can I still access it there?

Just call your broker's international or 800 number and have them execute the trades for you.
They'll charge you a little, but it's pretty easy.

this makes me wonder if you could use an apk to use it in other countries

Hi /biz/
Not sure what to do, thought someone here might have a requisite background to give some good insight. I'm an entrepreneur in a distribution services niche and have spent the last few years building up my business.
I was recently approached by someone interested in buying the company for a good price (I'll probably net 15-16M after taxes)
Anyway, I'm curious to hear any tips on selecting a wealth advisor/manager. My attorney has given me some tips, but he's mostly a corporate law specialist, very little overlap with finance, etc.
I've kept good control of my personal finances, but mostly have kept a lot of my money in the business (Minus paying off my house, comfortable salary, and solid retirement account contributions, etc) My plan was always to sell the business once it got to a certain threshold.
How can I filter and find a good manager?
What are the main questions I want to ask?
(Also, I'm 30.Not sure if that makes a difference, but I don't want to retire, I want to stash this money away and build up another business in a related, but different market, as next step)
Any help appreciated.

I'm 18 years old with about 7k in the bank from working recently. I little expenses and can save consistently.
I have been looking into investing into the sharemarket to start making some more money, but I need advice on what to do.
Should I just focus on banks in the long run? Take a few chances on businesses? Or just save for a investment property in a couple years time.
TIA

It's not that easy.
Aside from the permits and all changing From state to state, if you want it to succeed you need to consider everything, the costs of food, the cost of labor, employees, the menu prices.
Cause if you're paying someone 12 dollars an hour and you sell a sandwich that's worth 30 bucks for 10 you're literally throwing money away.

21 year old pleb here, want to become an entrepreneur. I was wondering if you guys could help me out
now, say i want to start a business in the medical devices field, obviously the first thing i have to do is find a market niche, a good way of doing that is to study existing products and see where i can improve upon the design and or manufacturing. My question is, how do i learn about how products are manufactured?

So you're idea is that you're going to study the way medical devices are made and then improve on that by creating your own manufacturing plant where you make slightly better versions of other products? And you just have a hunch that your going to see some inefficiency in the manufacturing process that nobody else is trying to fix and make profit off of it? You have enough money to do this?
Dude, if your market niche is medical devices, then take your money, use it to buy medical devices from manufacturers and then sell them at a profit. Do this first and see if you can even sell any. See if it even works before you go through the trouble of designing and manufacturing your own and sinking hundreds of thousands of dollars on it.
You might think, "well selling is the easy part, designing is the hard part, people who just sell must not make very much money" and you would be wrong. Selling is a fucking hard business to run on it's own.
My point is that there is other ways to make money than by coming up with the latest sexy innovative high-concept facebook.
>>
>>1399580
why would anyone buy the same product from me for more money when i'm just buying it from the manufacturer and not adding any value?
>>
>>1399580
specifically my idea is taking existing products and making them cheap so they can be sold in developing countries. for example, an EEG can cost in the tens of thousands of dollars, but really all it is is an amplifier hooked up to a bunch of electrodes, so theres no real reason it should cost that much. What i want to do is look at every stage of the manufacturing process and see where i can get away with cutting corners.
I'm going to be coming into possession of 28'000 dollars soon, but I don't want to waste it away as many would.
How could I use this money in a productive way to get rich sustainably?

I want to day trade stocks. My problem is that I don't know how to get started. I've been trying to read on how to start, which platform to use, how much to invest, and more yet this hasn't really helped me. Really would appreciate if someone could give me some useful info on how to get started.

pick a penny stock and dump all your money in it. If it goes up you sell it, if it goes down you contemplate suicide.
