you can get away with much more. as long as the items are the same weight you'll be fine. does walmart have people who check the receipts when you leave like in costco? cuz if not just go ham

>>1234255
dont wanna go ham, dont wanna risk too much, if i do get caught it would land me in a lot of trouble if i went over a certain $$ amount of theft. some walmarts around here even have the option to not bag your stuff, same as home depot. no, nobody checks receipts unless you're hauling a 50" tv out in a cart.

i used to shoplift clothes and groceries but this seems like a safer route these days. legally its worse, but there's less chances of getting caught if you look like you're paying for the items.

>>1234252
They pricematch

You can just lie and say it costs whatever different at xyz mart and no one checks

I need something that is reliable. I'm not getting a new car until I graduate, but as of now I'm thinking maybe $10k for something that wouldnt go to shit so quickly.

>How good of an investment would a vehicle be for a college student?

A deprecating asset with more costs added on(fuel, maintenance, repairs, tickets) is not an investment, it's a liability.

>but as of now I'm thinking maybe $10k for something that wouldnt go to shit so quickly.

There is virtually no difference between a $3k car and $10k car in terms of practical usage.

>>1234211
This is not an investment, this is a money sink.

No. There is significant difference in the amount of maintenance one would have to do between those two ranges. If you buy a car with $10k, you're not going to worry about a head gasket, struts, compressor, etc Buy a $3k car and you can have fun replacing everything from the windshield wipers to the timing belt

Maybe communities should clean up their neighborhoods and stop enabling the shit heads?

In my city, the northern area keeps bitching that there are no businesses except for chemical manufacturing and oil refineries. Well guess what you dumb black retards? Nobody is going to open up a fucking movie theater if they think the patrons are going to get robbed.

The sad thing is the politicians from the area know it too, but a lot of the people there act the victim(which they are in a way) instead of cleaning up the community.

Ergo, I don't blame Amazon, or any company for that matter, for being hesitant to deliver to crime ridden neighborhoods.

I think this is more ass-covering to avoid discrimination suits, not sincere SJW-minded activism like Twitter. Bezos is pretty libertarian, donated to Reason magazine for instance.

I used to live in an area where UPS and Fedex required a signature on all deliveries.

Would you also believe that the majority of the homes were section 8?

How did we get here friends?

neither party producing someone presidential

>>1234192
This. Government has become so shit that a criminal, a skeleton communist, and a con-artist have all claimed top spots for presidency. I didn't think our gov't could get any more corrupt than it already is, but I guess we'll find out how soon regardless of who is president...

My thoughts? I think I could probably escape its abstraction and add its nodes to a botnet, steal the wallets, crash the network, etc, etc, etc -- if I tried. The same is probably true of Ethereum as well.

I'm guessing you have little if any background in computer systems.

It's only a matter of time.

Depends on the PM. Unlike a doctor or a pilot, anyone can call himself a HF manager without a licence or a badge. All you need is a prime broker, an auditor and a legally reviewed offering memorandum.

Lots of former bank traders have set up their own HF's and are delivering consistent, above market returns. They are having a nice time, don't need to wear ties and attend silly meetings anymore. You'll never hear of those, because they have their network (e.g. investors) by the time they go live linded up already, and rarely accept new clients.

Then there are the wannabes. They heard of the obscene amount of $$$ one can make as a HF PM, and want a piece of the cake. They don't care about such details like lack of experience, track record or capabilites. All they're aiming for are models and bottles. They burn their clients money while charging really high fees and give the whole industry a bad name.

True story.

If we are going to follow the EMH they like to teach at school then no. And if you look at the average hedge funds you can see that they are shit and never do better than the market - but there are clearly some funds which have actually been able to achieve above market returns - whether by luck or skill is hard to say, though I'd probably assume many of the short term succesful ones are just lucky.

All checking accounts in the US are insured by the FDIC up to $250k.

I'm sure your $672.50 will be safe with fucking Ally Bank (which I've heard of)

Alright my question.

What sources do you guys use for reports, economic calendar, stock updates & anything market related. (interested in EURONEXTT stock, america is fucked)

Is anyone here a data or business analyst? Do you like the job and would you recommend it?

Joining the army after getting a degree is securing your life in my country, they pay you for scratching your balls.

>>1233872
Haven't done it, that's the plan though. Why do you want to join the army?

>>1234000

Navy family here. It's true. 99% of military is pointless. The "heroes" are far and in between.

Literally not a bad bet actually, there's much worse ways to invest. I can see this being similar to just putting all your savings into s&p, just at a higher risk level.

Same logic I had. Might get a couple hundred more shares / some LEAPs. I'm looking for a strong 2017 with Zen

You are both retarded. AMD is bankrupt because most of their RND has been sold. They no longer own alot of the patents that they developed for their processors. They're shrinking while trying to find a leg to stand on, and they have nothing innovative that they're working on. They're buried in debt and the stock has no dividend. You are fools if you buy them. You will lose your money when you are unable to sell.

>>1233812
Pay off your debt, continue saving, buy a multihome/duplex/condo, live in one, rent out the other(s).

Considering:
> Working for 2 years, paying off debt
> Try to continue research at Uni despite not being a student
> Make a great grad school resumes somehow?
> Apply to PhD programs
> Hopefully get tuition free
> Graduate with PhD and 20k debt
> Get a job as a consultant for 100k

>>1233820

this seems to be the advice for everyone who isn't a richfag yet

>>1233801
Also just to specify a bit more on the "I know a lot of math and physics" bit: I'm quite experienced at creating mathematical / statistical models, creating high-performance programs capable of handling heavy numerics/numerical physics. Computational nonlinear dynamics, linear networks, you name it.

>>1233801

you are a woz in need of a jobs.

we can partner up. you do all the coding the technical stuff. i'll go find you people in need of your services and I'll keep 70% of gross revenue.

Seems fair. I'll get right on creating our business cards; I'm assuming you want your title to be "idea guy", yes?

>>1233746
I'd like too, but no money to do so with... it's all tied up in others.

I stayed in the Jumeirah, next to the Burj in your picture.
One of the days I was there, there was a line of Indian guys applying for work stretching all the way from the entrance down to the main road, and along side it (probably a few hundred).
They were all wearing slacks and dress shirts, despite the fact it was about 113 degrees.
Sounds competitive, to say the least.

The only thing they have had going for them in the past year is their promises of coming out with a drone. But after HTC's flop, we know that it's the Chinese alone that rule that market.

>>1233652
htc drone?
