What the fuck is actually going on? Do they have it under control?

I don't know much about economics, how worried should we be? Are my Rambos about to be worth nothing? Is Chna about to become significantly less harmoniurs?

china's stock exchange unlike ours is 80% individual stockholders, also the government releases propaganda asking people to borrow to buy overpriced stocks

in july, because growth in china was slowing, actual revenues of chinese companies fell below predictions, and the market "corrected" aka prices fell to their actual values as a result.

Now this will affect natural resource consumption and african growth because china is a large sponsor of african instruction. However, Africa will recover because it has a workforce of 1 billion+ young people that can be trained for skilled labor. Chinese industry, on the other hand, is based on mass production. If they overproduce, or if people borrow too much to buy stock that is relatively worthless, then their economy is in the hole.

Governments print money because it's easier than raising taxes. They use this money directly for their purposes, and it reduces the value of everyone's money because there is more money circulating but no actual credit has been created. Creation of credit is complex, and is a service that experienced and well-established banks can perform.

Government operations become monopolies because they do not have to compete with other businesses in their efficient use of resources. Instead of efficiency, government can devote more taxes to their endeavors, and lower the prices of services until there are no competitors.

This is a simplification and a shot in the dark at appealing to your curiosity/reasoning, but from the above two points I wish to derive this: that many of us who invest in silver/gold/cryptocurrency believe the following things: that government itself, in the form it currently appears in, will not stop devaluing our currency, and that most people have attitudes and educations which lead them to indirectly support inflation/devaluation, whether they are aware of it or not.

I have, however, this critique of my own advocacy: that although government itself will not stop devaluing our currency, I do not understand the free market itself and I do not know if the free market will simply crash through the artificiality of government constructs like a tsunami or creep its way through it like the roots of a tree or the mycelium of a fungus.

If indeed the free market simply trumps the attempts of government to control everything, then silver and gold investments would be about as good as just keeping the dollars in the bank.

I don't see how the free market is the enemy of the govt, or vice versa... the government is there to protect private property / interests, and, lately, it has dedicated itself to protect the interests of commercial entities and rich people. commercial entities are OBVIOUSLY VERY interested in expanding their businesses...

Where there's a demand for money a supply will be provided. Why do you think a free banking system wouldn't be expanding the money supply at an even more rapid rate?

Inflation has not been a real issue for a decades. What you are saying is true of the past but at present (north american) governments just borrow money.

So why would you put money into silver, gold, or internet pyramid schemes to hide from it?

My parents want to sell their old house back in China. We haven't seen it since 10 years and apparently the Chinese housing market inflation has stagnated. Its current sell-able market price is about 230k USD, but my aunt offers to buy it for 184k USD.

My dad just asked me if we should sell it to her and I said no, because:

1) Doing business with family member, if anything goes wrong, hurts extra bad.

2) My family doesn't have income at the moment, dad's laid off, and we cannot afford to be generous.

Was my answer appropriate?

Seeing as your aunt is Chinese, she can't be trusted to not scam or jew you. Seeing as you and your dad are Chinese, your aunt can't trust you to not do the same.

It's tragic but you should cheat someone else.

Hey /biz/

Im sick of being a chump and not investing into the stock market. I read the news everyday like an old ass man and I can clearly see what companies that could have potential to make it big. Ive been doing some research with online brokers I understand I should never pay more than $10 per trade and just2trade looks like a good ebroker website. But what should i do? I dont have a 401k or an IRA and I would just invest my own money diectly. What the hell should I or shouldn't I be doing?

Test out free accounts with free cash. Learn your mistakes from those experiences.

When you are confident, enter the market.

As long as you can tell where the cash flow is going, you'll probably make money in the market..

What about MSN Messenger and/or Hotmail caused them to fail?

MSN Messenger was the Facebook of my time (early-mid 2000s). It allowed for an absolutely free instant messaging platform cellphones of the time couldn't match. Social connectivity that was absolutely unheard of. But it died off faster than the time it took to create Facebook. Was it the lack of room for ad integration? Or something else?

I'm genuinely curious, because MSN messenger was ahead of its time in terms of social media, yet most people under 20 don't even know it existed.

hearing about MSN makes me nostalgia hard man.

for me, i just naturally moved to facebook as everyone i knew was, msn was dying out. i personally have no preference as i only use messenger functions.
>>
Internet was still a relatively "new" thing for your ordinary schmuck, which means any large userbase was a teenage user base. For fifty average kids using MSN daily, there were barely half of their parents able to turn the computer on.

Any teenager trend is bound to die with the end of the kid's puberty, and most of the movement in the Internet marketplace was still teenager trends.
Can you think of one general public hit in the early 2000's which wasn't fueled by teenagers?

General public now is all ages so moves aren't as fickle as with 14 year olds.

Get MBA and CFA.
Ticket is ten grand for pink slips, hundred to swim with the sharks.

30k and an interactive brokers account.

Start with the basics (Day Trading for Dummies) and go from there. Read everything you can get your hands on, practice until you're profitable.
>>
>>1097238
get really good at coding or statistics (preferably both)

get job at a HFT prop firm or marketmaker

learn from people who are consistently profitable at intraday trading... stay, work hard and earn good money or quit, sit out non compete, and start your own operation

trading is automated these days - most of the easier edges are now gone to people with a speed advantage... very few manual traders survive - those that do won't share anything with you and have been doing this for years

>Here's some over advantages - I have no hobbies, no interests, no friends. I'm one of those people who talks back to the radio - no girlfriend, no family. I will live here.

how would saying something like this in an interview IRL go? not the quote exactly but admitting I am incapable of small talk and am not a typical 'team player' or whatever HR departments are looking for in my 'employability' skills, but will be 100 percent knowledgeable and dedicated to the job and my area of work.

tldr is it possible for a total aspie to get employed outside of fields like computer science or something

Can be from listing heavy boxes, especially if your technique was bad. Medial was most small lightweight stuff but a whole carton of some of the products might be heavy.
Pipe was obviously heavy, you use a forklift for the obvious stuff like a 16" valve but the danger is the stuff that's almost light enough to lift so you're tempted to take a shortcut and not use a forklift. Basically if you work smarter, not harder and use proper lifting technique it's not bad

So, all you Ethereum experts, please answer the following:

1) How is Ethereum better than Ripple?
2) How is Ethereum better than MaidSafeCoin?
3) How is Ethereum better than Bitcoin?
4) How will Ethereum deal with ever increasing blockchain size? It is currently a problem with Bitcoin, current blockchain is over 40GB and growing.
5) How will Ethereum deal with centralisation of mining pools? This was a problem with BTC.
6) How will Ethereum deal with forking?
7) How will Ethereum ensure the network is capable of making 10000 transactions per second and not 1 transaction like Bitcoin?
