>Don't want to ask ex-employer for something they are legally required to give you. commit tax fraud instead to save face.
It seems like neither of you are very smart, desu senpai.

>there are people so impoverished that their companies don't provide W2's online

I don't think I've seen a paper copy of a tax form in my entire life

>>1058281
? That doesn't make sense. How does a paper w-2 make one impoverished? How does an online W-2 make one not impoverished? Almost all tax software has the option to do paper, online or both.

OP you NEED to get that W-2. They send one to the IRS too so they know exactly what the numbers should be and will cross check it with what you submit on your 1040.
However if you made less than say 40k they may decide it's not worth their time to audit you, but that's taking a very silly risk.

Also, I assume throwing away the check without cashing it and not filing isn't an option since the company is? I could care less about this trash, but I don't want to wait for them to send out the forms.

$36?
I wouldn't worry about it
I would keep the check as a souvenir and cash it by mobile
Noone gives a fuck if you short the IRS a few bucks

>>1058267
Unless you make over 200k the IRS isn't going to audit you. They can't afford to audit everyone they want to.

>makes public transportation cheaper and more user-friendly for everyone in the country, especially those who couldn't afford taxis in the past
>"screwing american workers"

Here's an idea: requiring a "taxi driver license" creates a racket that prevents free enterprise for people that want to be drivers. Maybe it is, in fact, the government that is screwing the American worker. But that has never happened before.

Decentralised uber built using the etgereum blockchain will be entirely p2p and be a better deal for drivers and passengers by cutting out the middleman which sucks 40 billion dollars value out of the system like a giant parasite.

Uber, airbnb, all centralised sharing economy companies will get btfo by ethereum.

Pick one, OP. You should do it for the pay, but you will also most likely sell your soul forever

Ex-Accenture here. Can't speak to the technical interview since I came in to do analytics, so my experience is probably different.

As far as day-to-day, it depends on your boss and their relationship with the client. One plus is that you will get a ton of variety in your experience assuming you try: I learned 4 programming languages the first year I worked there. You also will learn to sell yourself and your work, since you spend like half your time doing just that. Travel can be fun, but you'll only get to see the nightlife.

I left after 2 years because a local firm was going to pay me 50% more to be an FTE and the travel was hard on my family.

I know that I will be working with those "I was in a frat, now I live the yuppie life" people, but that doesn't bother me as much as the rednecks and people who get married at the age of 23 who I currently work with.

Personally, I think consulting will bring me the money and experience I desire for the next 5 years. Tangible skills are shit a monkey can do, but those intangible skills like learning to sell yourself are much more important to me.

I don't think I'll mind the travel but I probably won't be doing much of that since I'll most likely land a federal consulting project over a commercial project. I honestly don't know what I want in life, but I'd like to be making good money while I figure that out instead of being a piece of shit millennial. Plus I need that money to bootstrap a startup that I cofounded. We might break even within the next year.

ZeroHedge pls go. The market is back to normal, everything that happened this month was just to trap retards into panic selling, and it worked marvelously.

I hope you bought the dip, if not, I feel sorry for you.

I assume the rally was due to the climbing oil price, and the fact that China has stabilized temporarily. I'm not sure why Oil rallied so much, but if it really was just the blizzard, it's going to be a really transient spike. I'd expect whatever good feelings their are wrt crude to taper off by mid-week. Then it's going to be a matter of whether the bottom falls out of China.

You "can" make money on it the same way people "can" make money doing any other type of day trading. 95% lose everything, 5% make a fortune

IGindex is the buggest spread betting platform and it is a SCAM.

If you want to gamble use betfair they dont give a shit wether you win or lose because its a genuine market and they only make p's from withdrawal fees.

In my opinion buying ethereum would be a safer bet.

>Is it worth investing $3000 and quitting my day job to invest everything I have into this
Investing into it : Yes
Quitting your day job : Not for the first year or so
Investing everything into any one thing : kek

>>1058190
Don't quit your job.

Your talker skills aren't going to help you in the cold environment of listings order by ascending price.

Plus the fees are crazy. Expect at least 25% between fees and shipping overruns. Budget higher if your target customer base may be a serial returner too.

Drop that class fast, take the same class with a different professor.

Or just do the work and study. Debits and Credits are insanely easy after practice.

>r just do the work and study. Debits and Credits are insanely easy after practice.

Assets increase on the debit side and Liabilities increase on the Credit side.

Expenses increase on the Credit side and Gains increase on the left side, right?

Have you?

The paying off debt and buying supplies in bulk vs. duking it out with professional investment companies is great advice. Waiting to buy until the market is down is just common sense, his investments seem a little too risky for the average joe though.

summary
b+h is shit
Volatility is good sign of opportunity
continuous investment of capital is the biggest lie
just hold cash b/c opportunity cost.
I don't even actively manage until shit hits the fan
just betting on volatility.
Cut credit cards b/c 18% buy in bulk, use the transactional value of cash.

I suppose... if you're doing the only thing that matters to you, life's ordinary discomforts fade to a barely perceptible dill ache, while you kill yourself everyday in pursuit of your goal. It's a weird road to take, bro, and it definitely ain't about the money. That shit is a byproduct, if it's even involved at all.

If the eBay dude, who eats canned beans just to live while he has $700,000 dollars invested into computer parts he sells for $.05/profit each, ever pops back up, listen to his story.

Thank you for that valuable insight

>>1057768
How about posting links to your webshop with certaindog-themed parafernalia and dog toys?

You have to get a webshop and buy some supplies though = easy money.

Look into Fulfillment by Amazon

Unless you're selling in bulk, how in the hell could this ever be profitable?

>>1057223
Similar situation OP. I've been wracking my brain lately to think of a business that would actually work.

It's pretty frustrating.

>>1056914
Don't invest if you're going to pull your hair out when your investment drops. Buy a hold for 1-5 years. For a 6% profit. Or more. That's investing for you.

>>1057190
but 6% of aprox 5k is fucking nothing, there no way i can win like a 15% or something that can increase my cash and invest harder then

>>1057850

Oil went up like 13% in the last two trading days, I don't know what you're talking about..

Why do you need an accountant and a lawyer to buy a house? Get an FHA loan, get preapproved and negotiate with the seller. Pretty easy to not get fucked if you just pay attention.

ASK questions to your realtor, if they are a good one, they will answer.

>>1056813

Unless you are paying in cash, you're going to get jewed by everyone. The entire process is filled with middlemen.

>>1056817
Is it a smart move to get an FHA loan if you just don't feel like putting 20% down on a house?

It seems like a poor person loan has to have some type of catch to it.
