No. But you can use multiple properties to purchase one. Its exactly like monopoly.

I didn't really even consider taxes when I started doing this. Bought it for $23k, put in about another $30k, and probably selling for around $140k. How boned will I be if I don't do 1031? Also, can a 1031 be used to sell a single family home and buy a multi family or apartment? Assuming the original house was always an investment property.

>>1025652
Yes

My camera. It landed me a job where I got paid to travel the country, and has paid me back many times over.

Worst is probably my car. even though it was used and I bought it for only $5k, as soon as I drove it from California to texas, the engine mounts broke, and the A/C broke, $2k spent immediately, then transmission broke $3k, now brakes for $800. I've already spent over $10k for my car and still have a year left on payments

OP here, it's pretty clear cut for me. I bought Facebook the day it IPO'd and held it. got it for 38 bucks a share and its more than tripled by now.

I really wish i hadn't just put a grand into that

Worst investment: Handed a friend of mine 4k for his "startup". long story short it was shit and i didn't see one red cent back from that.

It's not worth it.

I've sports bet for a few years, and have not won dick on daily fantasy.

The people who win use stats on Excel and study the shit like crazy.

If you are serious, get on one of the DFS forums and just copy what the winning guys are doing, hopefully some of them post their picks.

I've been trying to use Google Sheets to use linear optimization to create lineups, but it's not really working out the way it's supposed to. I'm trying to learn Python because I've found some scripts where people use it for DFS. I think it might be more worthwhile to try to make my own in the long run, but I'm not really sure if I'm on the right track.

I think it takes years of trial and error to predict the most probable yardage per player per matchup.

If I only I knew what variables the pros were using. Then you could just plug them in and make winning picks.

But I think even with their stats they still use a little sports accumen to make decisions.

Facebook

Anon, we're in the same boat, I think I talked to you in the last thread. Here's what I do:

- flyers, just stuff them in mailboxes until the Postal Service tells you to stop

- Nextdoor, nextdoor is KILLER, especially if you can get someone to recommend you

- Angies List, Angies list advertising is worth the money, but don't forget that the price is negotiable, keep beating them down until they give you a price you are happy with

- All social media is good

- Word of mouth and referalls, just shill this shit hard with every person you meet, I always keep flyers in my car, when people ask about my business I give them a few flyers.

This aint rocket science, ultimately you just need to be a nice non-pushy sales guy and plant a million fuckin seeds. hopefully a few sprout. the rest is history.

>I can't stand the workload, and i'm desperate to get out.

Sounds like you shouldn't be there at all. Finding a new job especially within a dynamic environment could take months. Are you suited for that?

Also could you specify you question a bit.

Well how many hours do you work and how much are you paid right now?

>>1025189

I'm aware it could take a long time... Unfortunately I'm kind of tied to my city, too. I don't know how to specify further than saying I want to learn how hectic a job is going to be, what the state of their department is, etc. There's a big void of talent in the area in what I do, so I have the perception that businesses will say just about anything to get me in the door, like this job did.

>>1025198

About 60 a week, and that's just in-office time. A lot of times I have to take my computer home, and I still get get looked at like I'm not doing enough. My boss and her counterpart typically work 10-11 hours a day.

I make $75,000 a year.

Probably nothing to worry about.

I have copyrighted stuff from other companies on my website, and have not had an issue.

Even if I did, if they contacted me, I would just remove it no problem.

I hold £5 worth of premium bonds. My uncle bought them for me when I was just a baby. I've won once and won £50. My sister won £50 three times as well

They're not like stock market bonds though, they're just like a lottery. A machine pulls a random number out its ass and and you can win various different prize levels. My parents bought quite a large sum of them many years ago and so did a couple of their friends and their friends won quite a bit once. Don't really know the details.

I'm much rather have had the money invested somewhere that earned interest all these years though.

They're not worth it senpai

Just get a FTSE tracker or something.

"Premium" just means they sell above par. That doesn't mean you're getting a good deal.

I'm comfy as a turian cardigan. Today I owned most of the situations I was in.

And that's more thay you can say about the failnese.

Fucking plebian wageslave get off my board white collar masterrace reeeeeee

You can bullshit your way into anything if you have the personality and can back it up with some substance.

>1) What fucking file format do people want for resumes these days? I'm that out of the loop. Should this shit be .doc, .rft, what?
If they care they'll specify. Otherwise, just make it look good.

>2) If I'm reasonable affable and can straight-face a lie, how easy is it to get away with that on a resume? I've never befriended anyone in HR before or worked in HR, so I don't know if they actually like, call a fucking university to check if you actually got a degree from them. Is there even a way to prove that shit?
Depends on what you lie about, who you lie to, where you lie about it, and what the job is. If you lie on paper (an application) about education, experience, past salary, etc., then you can and will be found out if the employer does a thorough background check. When you are found out you'll be immediately fired. But since you're coming from a shitty retail job, whatever positions you apply to won't be important enough to warrant one, so I wouldn't worry too much about it.

PDF for your resume.

fuck wrong board, sorry.
