If you don't get a degree in STEM or finance you are fucked. It's over. Drop out. Kill yourself. Majority of jobs are in STEM, it is in demand because technology is the foundation of society

I have a degree in STEM and what you said is BS.
Stem works best if you plan to be an entrepreneur. If youre just gonna be an employee nowadays Stem *might* bring you to middle-middle class. Unless you're a radio engineering wizard, you'd still be replaceable in an instant.

Why are there so many successful lone traders in Japan?
>It was six minutes after the opening bell on Feb. 4, and dozens of big-name stocks were still untraded in Tokyo. Telecommunications giant SoftBank Corp. was among those that hadn’t budged. The offer price fell 5 percent, then more, and still there were no takers.
>Then an order was filled: 300,000 shares at 6,714 yen -- worth just over 2 billion yen, or almost $20 million. Other buyers followed, momentum built, and the stock ended the day as one of only two gainers in the Nikkei 225 Stock Average.
>The man who made the market for SoftBank that winter morning was sitting in pajamas in a bedroom cluttered with comic books. He was leaning into the glare of four computer screens and munching a carrot -- something to calm his stomach.
>Ninety minutes later, he cashed out with a profit of 140.6 million yen. Then it was on to the next trade for the former video game champion and pachinko gambler who goes by the name CIS. The 35-year-old day trader says he made 6 billion yen, after taxes, betting on Japanese stocks last year.
>CIS, pronounced sis, means death in classical Japanese. The nickname is a holdover from his gaming days, when he used to crush foes in virtual wrestling rings and online fantasy worlds. “Games taught me to think fast and stay calm,” he said over tea at Tokyo’s Hotel Grand Palace a few days after the SoftBank trade.
>Early in his career, CIS made a name for himself trash talking on 2channel, Japan’s most heavily visited online bulletin board. He became notorious for such lines as “Not even Goldman Sachs can beat me in a trade” and “Excuse me while I go flush some cheap wine that only cost me 800,000 yen.”

Can I get money from my employer if they lied to me?
Worked as a web programmer for this media company for a few days. They fired me because they didn't get a grant to help cover my wage, then called me back asking if I could work for them for a few weeks, with the option for a longer contract if I impressed them. Three days in I find out they've got me in an unpaid internship. I've got all the emails and nowhere do they state that this was unpaid, can I take this to the labour board or something? I think I should be paid for the hours I worked.

I'm paying a ghost writer to write me a 12k word ebook. I asked him if he could send over a segment so I could review it, and he said "your order is going fine but please be patient for the final copy, sending it bit by bit is a distraction to me but it is going fine"
Now I have never outsourced writing before so I'm not sure on the etiquette - to me this sounds fishy or he's trying to half-arse the job so I don't get the chance to ask him to make amendments.
What would you do in this situation, should I chill and let him finish the job or do I have a right to review the work as it is being completed?

He's outsourcing it.
Demand the segment or cut him off

Does it matter whether I'm going through UpWork or not? I'm just thinking of how to phrase this since I do actually have an UpWork ad up and someone has recently replied who sounds more competent for the job.
Furthermore I'm not too sure of my rights - am I free to cut off the job at any point?

Are luxury cars worth it? I have little interest in cars but I feel like buying an expensive car just for the image now that I have a decent job. Thoughts?

>Are luxury cars worth it?
no. they are expensive to acquire, expensive to fix, and depreciate rapidly. don't buy a car that costs more than 25% of your annual gross pay.
>>
Don't fall into the trap of acting rich. You make what you make. You don't have to show it off, and it's expensive to do so. In this case, luxury cars are expensive to buy, expensive to fix even if you fix it yourself, and expensive to maintain(you dont care about a cheap honda, but suddenly, you want your luxury car to always be clean and stuff like that). You are not what you drive.
>>
Buy one and find out. They're a huge liability. That's usually the first mistake people make when they get a promotion or a new job, they go out and buy all this fancy new shit which adds to their expenses, and you end up being no better off than before.
Invest your money into assets and when your assets allow you to afford a luxury car, go for it. Otherwise you're just buying a toy that will depreciate like a motherfucker and get boring real quick, all for the sake of 'status'.

Hey everyone, I recently got into trading on the stock market via Robinhood. I made some pretty nice money but today was the end of my streak. I basically broke even.
I am on the hunt for the objectively best trading platform software on the market. What do you guys use, and what do you all think is the best one out there?

Even the shittiest oxbridge course would yield better networking.

>>1254350
Depends what you're looking for. Imperial has a more serious management department. LSE will yield better connections. I did the General Course at LSE, was a great experience, and could have easily turned it into a consulting or banking gig if I were interested.
>>1254360
What a not insightful comment that's completely irrelevant to OP's question. Oxbridge has the best network in the UK? REALLY?

i can't deal with this "networking" shit.
first of all it sounds like old mamas doing mlm.
second it sounds like something technical ie managing network infrastructure.
why is biz lingo so retarded?
