Hey guys, 18 year old Britbong here.
Today was my last day of schools & exams, and I'm now having a gap year. Within this year I plan to save £10,000, in which a friend and myself plan to put a deposit down on a house prior to going to university.
So if you had 1 year and 2 months, with around £5,000 capital to start with, what would you do?
Looking for general advice really.
Current plan is to work at job (got one which allows me to 'lightly run' a business and pays £10 an hour.)
I'm also trying to gain work experience in high-finance and investment banks, in which I'd like to progress to eventually.
Are there any particular skills, activities, clubs etc I should look into?
Thanks for any help.
You still wont be able to afford a house in a year. I'd suggest finding a fat bitch to fuck that will let you live with her and feed you while you save all the cash you can. Then move on and repeat.

Need more information.
How did your exams go? I assume you did A-levels.
What university are you going to?
What will you be studying?
Regarding the job who are you working for?
What exactly will your duties be?
When will you start and how long will you work for?
>>1313191
Working at The Gap for a year? Kind of a short time to have on your resume to begin your career.
Post music to sit back and relax as you watch your wealth grow.

If you're on this board and you haven't bought at least 1k Trump, you haven't been here long enough. There is ZERO chance the coin won't hit $1 before the election.
If RonPaul Coin can hit $10 via an online libertarian community pump, the Trump is guaranteed at LEAST $1.

fuck off
Reminder to pay attention to alt coins vs BTC not USD.
BTC is gaining far more than all other alts atm. ETH might be at $20, but is still a bear vs BTC.
Buy BTC. Not unproven, 100% speculation shit coins.

>Buy BTC. Not unproven, 100% speculation shit coins.
I admire your dedication but it's not necessary.
BTC is the coin that the man on the street has heard about. And that's who will drive the next wave of adoption.
BTC went from 500 to 750 this year.
ETH went from 1 to 19.
But ETH is a bear.
Is this the power of American education?
>>1312864
Yes ETH has had a great run. But since it topped months ago it's been bearish against BTC. Not difficult to see that.
What are you gonna do when Ethereum will hit $100/coin?
$1000/coin?
Kill myself for not buying sooner and only having 135 eth
Is it really going to 100? Is this not the spike?
I dont want to be a wage slave anymore
>>1312814
I would be surprised if it did in the next few months. Next year? Who knows
Is amazon prime really worth 50 bucks a year for? I also heard there was a way to keep getting 30 day free trials. Is that such a thing or did they find out about that exploit and do something about it. I should probably bite the bullet but I just really have a hard time spending money on things. It could be a blessing but in other things its a curse. Im like a hoarder
>>1311836
stop wasting your money on useless plastic shit and hoard BTC and ETH instead
Depends in where you live and your situation. I live in Manhattan and getting things delivered beats lugging boxes through the city. Also the prices on Amazon are usually lower because they're priced nationally and I get things cheaper than the NYC markup. Also, I have the Chase Amazon cash back card so it's another %3 discount.
I like it. Many places offer 6 months free and years free. Moms just get 6 months a year for reverse sexism wins.
>/biz/ says do things you hate like accounting or business management
>Trump says if you do things you hate, your production will fall, making you unhappy and poor, and thus preaches doing something you love
So which is it, /biz/?
>no comments
/biz/ confirmed for anus annihilated
>still no answer
YOU CANNOT MAKE THIS SHIT UP!
I'd like to think that wouldn't be the case of you had responsibilities. Let's see how much your production fall when you have mouths to feed. I know a lot of working class people tend to have this mindset.
My younger brother in highschool wants to earn money over the summer. He asked me but I'm clueless. Anyways for him to get more than minimum wage or do something more useful for his future? Thanks!
>>1311339
Does he have a pair of kneepads he can borrow from you or a pair of his own?

What?
Anyone have any real tips to save money? I'll start with stuff I found helpful:
> Turn off AC during the day
Leaving it on is 375% less efficient contrary to popular belief. The starting and stopping is terribly expensive, better to have it just go for 30 minutes
> Turn off a ceiling fan when you're not in the room
A fan doesn't actually make the room cooler, it just makes it FEEL cooler
> Don't ever get a car payment
Very self explanatory. Cars depreciate like crazy, there's virtually no difference between a $5k car and a $25k car.
>>1310338
>Tips of saving money
Easy, earn more money.
Saving money is retarded because there's always a hard cap on it, you can't really drop down expenses below a certain point, and if you wipe out the major ones even saving an additional $100/month gets very hard. Whereas earning more is unlimited, you could easily earn $100 more a week with almost no effort no matter what position in life you're in.
>>1310347
Or you could just do a bit of both. Earning $100 a month might be difficult for some people but cancelling your cable is a phone call.
>>1310369
>Or you could just do a bit of both
Well yeah, I'm assuming you're not doing retarded shit like spending $100's per month on restaurants when your monthly income is <$3k/month and such but really your focus shouldn't be on saving money but rather earning more.
>Earning $100 a month might be difficult for some people but cancelling your cable is a phone call
Impossible. Earning $100 a month is incredibly easy, you could literally mow 5 lawns/shovel 5 driveways per month to make that.
You could work 2.5 hours more per week at your $10/hr job to earn that.
You could drive for uber part-time, you could sell ice creams, tons of stuff basically.
>i'll never make it
how do you cope with the anxiety and fear
>>1310327
I don't have fear.
Why go into battle with anything other than expecting to win?
>>1310334
Because you have no choice
>>1310334
This. Fuck that faggot shit OP.

Small /biz/ General Thread
Debt Edition
>Small business owners, entrepreneurs, or prospective businessmen get in here and discuss successes, failures, and techniques
I would like to know your guys' thoughts on funding growth with debt. How much capital did you have to start your business? How much debt did you take on? Did you chug along funding all your growth and expansion from within or take on debt to grow the business?
I'm personally starting a business with a couple hundred dollars and $1,000 credit line. It's a service related business (essentially home maintenance and repair) so my overhead is pretty low, but I need things to grow (t-shirts, bigger tools, advertising.) I'm unsure about how much of this stuff to wait on and fund with sales and how much to swipe.
>inb4 $1K LOL POORMAN. You gotta start somewhere
Owner of a tile business here. I got some stuff to share, but got to get to sleep.
Godspeed small biz I'll give as much advice as I can tomorrow.
>>1302005
Cool Ive seen you post before, your thread a few months ago actually inspired me a bit to start my business. I'll look for your post tomorrow
>>1301980
Low voltage electrical here. Been missing this general. Started business with 5-6k I think. Only credit was 20k for the van. But that was a personal loan. Long since paid off by the company. Don't get too heavily in debt without much of a client base.
Im 19 and a sophomore in college, im looking to find ways I can invest the money I make over the summer to make a little more money. Can anyone suggest me any books or give me guidance?
buy bitcoin

>>1314830
