So I'm thinking about selling electronics from this TOR site on ebay for cheap. They're all around 50-70 percent off retail.

What could go wrong here so I know in advance?

You put your bitcoin in and the service shuts down, taking it. You get them and the AAPL shit is icloud locked. You get them shipped to your house and the police show up. Your bitcoin tumbler is fake. EBay flags your account for selling stolen stuff. Serial numbers get traced back to your eBay account and then to you.

what site is it. theres alot of fakes on tor/replicas.
>>
>>1104220
Wow, that's a lot of stuff that could go wrong.

Do you think they report the serial numbers of stuff that might be fraudulently purchased by the Tor site?

Rare huh?

Well there's this site called 4Chan where you can pay $20 for 80,000 people to see your ad.

Though no one rarely clicks on it, you can still be noticed by a few hundred.

I'd like to redeem my points now

That's because J-List has cucked this site to the point moot started charging them like only $1/50k views.

Is predatory bond buying a thing?

Example, the company is skirting with bankruptcy, (debt topping 2b, maturities coming up in 2018) weighed down by high exposure to mineral/steel business,shares are trading at 0.015c down from a "high" of $5ish about 6 yrs ago. The assets of the company are worth more then the total debt if all was liquidated, so if I was to buy bonds in the company at a fraction of their value because the "threat" of default, does one stand to make money on this form of "predatory" bond buying if the company does infact go bankrupt and the liquidators come through?

Bond investors wouldn't be selling the bonds for less than the assets that the company is worth.

If they were mistakenly doing so, then yes, but you could also be over estimating the value of their assets and lose money.

Where are you getting the asset value from? If its from their balance sheet then its bullshit. If they are tanking with the commodity sector then all their assets are probably valued at levels they were when commodities were valuable. The assets will be written down and a iron mine that was valued at 100mil in 2011 will be written down and be worth 10mil in liquidation.

Subsidiary of the company is currently trying to be offloaded by ubs & lazard to cover the value alone of this sale will wipe 90% of their debt. Further sales of business ventures wil EASILY cover remaining debts.

If the sale doesn't go as well as you think it will, then you will lose all of your principal.

The market has priced the bonds where they think the true value is at. A lot of smart people doing this for a living have reached the price point. If they are wrong and you are right, then yes you will make money. But how confident are you in this?

hey /biz/, can someone whos knowledgeable about business and economics explain to me how global markets and how business and finance works? What caused the great recession and worldwide financial collapse of 2008/2009 it was nothing like the world has ever seen, it was different than the 1929 great depression or the mini recessions of the 70s 80s and 90s because today the world is so highly connected and globalized and money is a bigger issue than ever in the world and stuff like politics and finance and business. Please /biz/, if you can explain to me and teach me all you know about business and finance and how markets and global economies work because I want to understand this stuff to learn from it and be prepared for the future and find a way to make it work in my favor and get rich off it. thank /biz/ and talk soon!

2008-2009 recession was caused by crony capitalism. 70 years of cold war never happened. There were never any poor socialist countries, only oil rich Scandinavian countries. people never starved in Poland, Yugoslavia, East Germany, Venezuela, North Korea, or Vietnam. That was all propaganda elect Bernie Sanders thx.

Have any of you managed to go from lets say 10k - 20k over the course of a year or so? I know there is a fuckton of negativity on this board about actually succeeding in the market but there has to be a successful trader on here. There just has to be one.

the only way to make those kind of returns is to identify a couple good investments and go all out on them.

the majority of conventional wisdom is to diversify as much as possible, eliminating risk (but also the possible of huge gains) so that you can make a small Steady return and retire in 50 years.

>>
>>1102958
It certainly can be done over the course of 1 year, but becasue of the risk involved, those returns could never hold over a 10 year period.

In other words, yes, you can get lucky

Should I buy my dad's house? The house holds a lot of sentimental value to me, and he's putting it on the market in the next year or so.

The house is marketed at about 120k. My yearly income is 50k, so I think a mortgage is possible. My credit score is 720, do you think this is possible?

I could probably save for a 20% down payment over the next year.

Any advice?

If you really want it sure.

Since he's your dad I'd try for a discount, or some kind of payment plan through him and not through the banks
>>
>>1102900
I hadn't even thought about that.

I'm not sure if he'd bite on that or not. Do you think it's a financially sound decision, considering my income? I live in an apartment now, and from the calculators I've been using, my monthly mortgage would probably cost less...
>>
how long has your dad had the house, is his original mortgage paid off? and how about the overall condition?

I work in the mortgage biz, and it keeps me up at night seeing people who live paycheck to paycheck signing up for mortgages on a daily basis.

Yes

People are idiots. They will get houses far too expensive for them, or take on variable rate mortgages just because it might be 'the cheaper option in the short-term'. People have no sense or recognition for the future, they live in the present and don't care. We live in an age where people must have everything at once rather than work for it and it just cannot work like that. We are knocking on the door on the worst financial crisis since the great depression and only the smart people who have physical assets are safe

I've always wanted to be a teacher (especially a math teacher) but I'm confined to a 9-5 job that offers little to no time to attend a traditional brick and mortar college, due to class schedules conflicting with my job schedule.

Now I understand I'd have to step foot inside a real school at SOME point, but how much could I get out of the way by attending an online college (accredited) where I could study and advance at my own pace?

>I'm asking for a recommendations in regards to reputable schools, what I should do and how, as well as any other information/advice any of you could give me.

Much thanks in advance.

Maths teacher here, this job is the graveyard for the unambitious.

I used to mock my Finance friends at Uni that aimed to work the 80h/week meme. They tell me at 8pm their firm provides them with dinner and a ride home. Sometimes, I stay till 8 doing various marking or data entry on inefficient systems because we "have to."

Basically, I'm studying for CFA so I don't pull the trigger. The irony.

Stay away, OP.

I believe in a different type of investment.

Money buys things; we can all agree on that.

If I can teach others how to make money, then maybe/hopefully they'll spend that money on things that will benefit others, including myself, in the far but hopefully not too distant future.

You pay taxes throughout the year. If you fuck up and overpay taxes each time it's taken out of your paycheck, you file taxes and get a return of what you overpayed.

This works the other way around too. If you fuck up and owe the gubment money, you best pay them by april or the IRS will crawl up your butt

Hawala is based on honnor and basically enforced with violence and mimics crypto currency in term of anonymity.

A gives money to B in Saudi Arabia. B tell his cousin to give equal amount to C (A's recipient). If traced back, it looks like shitty overpriced business deals where the difference (or money laundering) becomes the decided transfer amount.
of course if B doesnt pay up, theres nothing A can do besides breaking his legs lol so i give it a C- rating

Just came out of jail. Looking to diversify my business portfolio.

Looking for advice on what would the best things to invest my money into.

Currently taking web design / branding / marketing / photo and video editing courses.

Perhaps some long term residue income? I've seen BTC go from 200USD to 400+ atm but it seems it's just too high to purchase at this moment.

Is there any marketing programs you see viable in the next 5 years (something like Uber or anything necessary that you would need in this life?)

Just looking to get some clarity on this subject. Thank you /biz

Hey /biz/

I might be flying out of town for an interview in a few weeks. Dinner with the search committee on Thursday and then the interview on a Friday. Any hiring managers or the like have comments about this? Is Friday a shit day for interviews (distracted staff, last person to be interviews, etc.) also what's appropriate for a business interview dinner?

Also feel free to post tips or funny interview stories.

Pro-tips:

1. Pretend you're someone they want to hire.
2. Relax your anus. (100% serious)

I have 100% success interview success rate.
>>
>>1104066
I actually have personally worked for some folks on the panel, which makes me even a little more nervous, but I gotta chill out, I know.

Mostly concerned about the Friday interview (it's a half day or so affair) - worried that going at the end of the list of people interviewed is going to be more difficult.

>>1104068
Bro-science tip:

Have 1 beer (will make you smooth and your brain will access vocabulary easier, with more confidence) and a large, dirty, black coffee (will keep you focused so you don't smoothly say stupid shit).

It will be better if you go in dry, but still. Make sure you brush your teeth or drink some mouthwash.

Anyway, getting interviewed last can be a positive or a negative. Your CV is at the top of the pile, you have the chance to have the final word and blow them away.

Not sure what kind of advice you expect with the details you've provided, I mean no one on /biz/ can possibly know the situation better than you. If you ~expect~ to get hired, play it safe. If you're shooting from "low-ground" go risky and act like a dick...
