unless you have hundreds of people under you, get to know most of the people that work for you. It helps regular workers know that you aren't a corporate drone that they will never see.
Alright, /biz/, wanting to get into stocks and play around a bit. I know nothing about it so could you guys tell me what I need to know? How they are taxed, where to start, can I do it easily on my computer and phone? Any info helps!
If you're an amateur with little capital, you're bound to lose your money. Buy into Vanguard or any wide spread market ETF.
They're taxed accordingly depending on where you live, capital gains tax.
Yes, you can easily do it from home, some brokers have apps for mobile devices as well.
Generally, read the Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham, the fourth edition edited by Jason Zweig. Also, Business Adventures and maybe Bogle's Small Book on Investing.
Generally, spend time preparing and educating yourself, on investopedia, bogleheads etc.
On marketwatch, there's a real time stock game with fictional money. Practice, but don't think you'll win the game if you get lucky for a month. Never get cocky, never speculate, never think you know the market or that you can play it, because it will play you.
To quote Graham, the intelligent investor is a realist who sells to optimists and buys from pessimists.

>you're bound to lose your money
This poster is almost certainly correct.
Trading requires tens of thousands to be done effectively and with any prayer of success.
But I'm sure someone will be along shortly to recommend a surely disappointing experience via Robin Hood.

I shoulda stuck with my short longer.
Figured the "blind loyalty" thing would have put in a floor on this shit.
Where should I advertise this and how. Forums (what forums?), social media?, paid ads?, any guerrilla marketing techniques ?

This will not work. Good luck making a facebook for it. Some faglord loser I knew in high school tried this shit. He is in jail now at 25 with a felony record. Good luck

Felony record for buying and selling student assignment? What the hell are you smoking senpai?
The reason it won't work is that there is already a platform that does it, forgot the name, my gf showed me. I'll ask her and post in the evening.
I started an academic exchange which allows college level students and tutors to connect on a safe, secure, and anonymous, website. The website allows students to post assignments they have no desire to do or aren't very good at and receive help for a fee, it also allows students to play the role of the tutor in helping peers finish assignments that they are skilled in to earn an income. How & where should I advertise something like this ?
>>1028124
Facebook and rstemyprofessor and I cant remember the sites name but you buy test banks on it
>>1028127
Pretty sure Facebook ads are basically dogshit. There have been multiple studies on how they are fake/ barely reach a viable user base to be worth what you pay for them.
>>1028124
I like this idea OP, however I think you'll have an imbalance of way more students asking for help than tutors. Maybe offer successful tutors compensation in some way? Have a very thorough rating and review system to prevent shitty tutors and keep quality high

I have an uncle.. He made roughly 1.5 billion in about roughly 30 years .. he met a couple of them as they wanted to buy a merchant bank he owns.
Why do banks have opening hours that make even small town Italian tobacconists feel like they work too hard?
>>1027935
Most things that make retail banks money are things that you really need. So if you really need them you will work around your schedule to accomodate theirs. This reduces money draining servicing that can be done at ATMs or online.
Also it's a bank, they don't give a fuck about how you feel about their hours.
Develop a business relationship with a (non-entry-level) bank employee and you can call them on their cell phone at 8 PM and get a loan. My dad wanted to buy a truck from a guy off craigslist a while back and his night shift schedule forced him to meet the guy and look at the truck at 8 PM. He called his banker at 7 on the way to see the truck and his banker said "Write a check for however much the truck is and we'll make sure it goes through and we'll get you a lower interest rate than what anyone else will give you."
I'm still convinced my Dad sucks the banker's dick or something.

A bank would rather undercut the competition than lose a "sale".
Just wondering as I have access to unlimited high speed internet as well as electricity in a cooled environment. Even if it won't make me instantly the kid from blank check, thru trading could I make somewhat of a profit? I also have at least 5 unused PCs I could mess with to Frankenstein a setup.. And moderate amount to start up..

>buying was relevant if you bought it before the herd. like with every investment. now absolutely irrelevant, those that want it bought it, those that don't give a shit won't give a shit.

So in your opinion, it is a worthless attempt to buy via coinbase and trade to make profit?

I am set to graduate in June with a four year degree and no student loan debt. I will also have around 6k saved by then. I have not worked during school, only summers. I come from a poor family (one income <20k for 4). Ask me anything about affordable college.
>>1027673
How did you do it?
And is it possible to study in College while living on your own without any financial help from your parents? I have to do this soon and I am not sure how I will pay for tuition + living expenses while studying.
>>1027678
Honestly, it is all scholarships. I applied to over 40 senior year of hs and ended up receiving 19k for my freshman year, not including state and federal grants. I go to a less expensive state school which also helps. Make sure to do your FAFSA soon to get money for next year. I was not an amazing kid in hs, I just filled out all the paperwork and received scholarships no one else applied for. I even got one for black students but they gave it to me (white) because I was the only one to apply.
>>1027678
Also, it is totally possible to do without parent support. I rent a house off campus with one other roommate and have a 3.5 GPA in mechanical engineering. Just apply for all possible scholarships. It sucks doing them but it is so worth it in the end.
