Is joining the military a good career alternative to standard desk-grade bullshit?

>He goes into the military to avoid sitting at a desk 8 hours a day.
>He spends 8 hours a day in a hot tent in the middle of a desert.
>>1279972
Eh, not really.
Brawling with other servicemen and blowing shit up is fun, but you don't get to spend enough time doing that.
It's mostly just boredom, salted with idiots that you have to respect ordering you around.
Or getting killed, depending.
>>1279972
depends which branch and which job, either or it only takes 36months of service to get them GI BILL benny's and you can also qualify for VA home loans and such.

What does it mean /biz/ ?
What does it mean that the euro is now much closer to a dollar than years ago?
I'm trying to understand basics of economics and finance, and having a really really hard grasping this stuff. Does this chart mean the euro is gaining in value relative to the dollar? Does it mean it's losing value relative to the dollar? Aren't the numbers worthless anyway, since the 'actual' value is determined by purchasing power when buying goods and services?
It seems like it's all so highly interrelated and relative, that there is no starting to point to understanding this stuff.
Please halp.

>What does it mean that the euro is now much closer to a dollar than years ago?
It means € is losing its purchasing power.
>>1279747
Basically means if you live in the US you can buy more shit from the EU for the same amount of cost. Because the Euro is devalued.
EURO is weaker because of Quantitative easing (basically lowering your interest rates when they are already negative). lower interest rates means weaker currency. also, the US are putting their currency up - which means stronger currency.
$ stronger, EUR weaker.

What if you give some of the money to the Guy you promised to, but only à tiny part ?
>>1279663
I don't fucking know the fugees guy stole money from haiti so you can probably do it.
So the waves ico is set to raise $15,000,000 which is nearly as much as ethereum raised.
The plan is to build a platform for trading real currencies sort of like ripple on steroids.
These heads are based out of Moscow. With $15million at their disposal and the best russian hackers will they be capable of making a $1billion blockchain?
Stay tuned to find out
>>1279610
what's the difference between this, rise (which I personally believe is an absolute shameless scam) and ethereum (which I have invested in quite heavily)
>>1279624
It is in between the two imo.
>>1279624
Rise is a literal piece of shit with barely enough funding to get a mortgage in Iowa. So let's get that out he way straight off the bat.
Ethereum depends how you view it, some see it as a revolution, others see it as a well made slick gimmick. But a gimmick none the less.
Anon I recommend you look at the waves white paper, waves is to crypto what a Bloomberg is to robin hood. It's designed for robustness, to serve as the literal future of currency exchange (an traceable unforgable intermediate), look up CLS there are companies making hundreds of billions "balancing" foreign exchange books to make sure there haven't been any mistakes/errors/crimes committed. If you correctly applied block chain tech to forex you could fill a huge niche. And in my view that is waves edge, it's not trying to do EVERYTHING IMAGINABLE (like ETH) with programmable custom decentralised contracts, whatever the fuck that means. Waves wants to be designed from the ground up to fill a very specific and very important niche:". Now whether they will succeed I have no idea, their idea could immediately be stolen by some jew alliance between banks and Google, but if they do succeed then I can say for sure that waves is the first altcoin who's concept I read about and thought "why didn't Anyone do this sooner?" Vs ETH which is so muddled up in buzzwords and proof of concept models I don't even know what it's actually meant to do.
Long or short on oil?

Don't take risks: don't "invest" in oil
If you can't figure it out don't invest
>tfw live in a developing North African country and can't buy bitcoin, eth, or any other coin

Anybody else here /forced_to_be_nocoiner/?
Explain how you can't buy bitcoin again?
What ways have you tried?
>>1279542
None of the exchanges are open to my country. I have to buy coupon-like things physically but I can't find any sellers.
>>1279531
try paypal.. they convert $$$ to bitcoin.. but 10% commision tho, which sucks

I am using Degiro but I find that it doesn't show everything I need. I see plenty of good ASX companies (like CNJ) on /biz/ but am unable to buy them in Degiro.

Literally the best: Interactive Brokers
Cheap as fuck and got listed pretty much anything.
Only downside: minimum deposit 10k (or 3k if you're below 25)
I have 10k that I want /biz/ to help me invest. Trips decides any stock/option that I should drop 10k in. Will update with proof.

Hi /biz/
My grandfather just died and left me $5,000
My college is being paid for by my parents so I'm not really going to touch the money any time soon.
Where should I put it for the next 3-4 years?

Is Peter Thiel and other dotcom billionaires of the Paypal Gang good businessmen or did they just get lucky?
>pic related to legendary businessman
>>1279313
The difference between you and them is that they have tried.
>>1279627
Yes that is true. But even so is it just luck, or just the will of wanting to do it? Paypal almost failed in 2001, when they listed their IPO, the first after 9/11. The WSJ said Paypal was a fraud
>>1279313
>luck
never gonna make it senpai
So basically I'm trying to evaluate if I should put $100 into this but Sasha Ivanov just sound so fucking scammy. Any of you nigers on waves boat already with over 9000 to lose ?
I put in $50.
I didn't read shit about the coin other than seeing a lot of people invested.
I'll hold until I double and buy myself some dumb shit or add to BTC stash.
All these alts are trash.
It's a great long term investment, will overtake ripple within a year probably and establish itself as top 4 cryptos.
One thing I can for sure tell you though, it will drop or stay stable on launch. Not an ico i'd want to get into at this point, but I bought in over a month ago so can't back out now. Currently i'm holding 5btc in 50/50 btc/eth purely for buying waves after launch no matter if price falls/rises/stays stable.
>>1279372
when does it launch after the ICO? whats the date?
/biz/y nation please come to my rescue. I am deeply disappointed by the education system. I have finished all possible education with a PhD degree in Liberal Arts and haven't been able to land a decent offer in academia. I have so much debt and such low income that I'm seriously considering a hero. Some of my friends have landed ok offers and they haven't even finished their degrees. I'm 40, no family, no kids, no girl...should I start a business and forget my investment of a lifetime?. Pic kinda unrelated

Look STEM-lord, I get that you come here to shill against BA degrees, but you should probably reconsider your life at this point.
