What is to stop someone from buying 1 million shares of a m stock the day before you must hold to collect the dividend, then selling the day after and getting a huge payout? Am I missing something here?
>Also, dividend stock general. Post your favorites
Why would you start a general thread for something that you don't even understand on the most basic level?
the price of a dividend is priced into the stock price.
look at stock charts. After the dividend is declared, the stock will fall (independent of the market volatility) by an equal price.
There is a lot more variables that go into why your example is retarded, but this is the basic answer
>>927037
different anon bumping for interest.
Why will the stock fall? Wouldn't it become more attractive, since buyers now know it will pay a dividend?
My girlfriend suggested she and I start a webcam show of some kind. Basically we want to dress up and get donations during our playtime.
Anyone on biz experienced in this/watched this kind of material? Any tips on where to start and how to grow a fanbase?
just start streaming on chaturbate, and do it often.
i saw one girl with a pretty decent body who would pull her tits out every once in a while, and she put her tips to something crazy like 25 for 80 goals (meaning viewers had to hit 25 tokens 80 times before a show). I calculated what she made once in ~20 minutes and it was something over $200.
I have no experience building a fan base, but that site seems easy enough to start building one. at times that i've visited, there can be 3000 people viewing the most popular room. basically just copy what other channels do (make photo sets and videos available for download in exchange for tokens, set up your profile page with themed decorations and play token keno games)
im not sure of other sites, but i know chaturbate will exchange tokens earned for gas cards or something along those lines. useful if you have a way of trading them for cash with friends (who don't ask too many questions)

yea, just do what this guy said, there literally is no downside, no skill involved, just fuck, take requests and make $1000/day

eBay General Thread
Where do you guys get free shipping material? I need a large box at least 2.5 foot tall and some bubble wrap/packing peanuts but I don't want to pay for them. An ideas?
Will I get fucked over as a new seller with literally zero feedback if I start to sell right now? Im already going to purchase a ton of cheap $1 chinese shit to improve my feedback within the next week.
>>905683
Nope. I started a new account a while back, like my 5th account or so, and had no troubles. I bought a cheap widget to get first feedback.

Why has there been no revolution of the poor against the rich
The world has changed, people are happy and distracted by materialism, they live happily being in debt to the rich with nice cars, houses, and fancy degrees. But let's be real, thats only first world countries where the rich have rights as much as poor people do. They are allowed to be rich and not have anyone bother them.
Because middle class life isn't horrible and people have been convinced that working 40 hours for little money is fine
What would it accomplish? Poor people are poor because of their own deficiencies in skill, intelligence, talent, and ambition. Overthrowing the current social model won't make them better people. In a few years, the cream will rise to the top again, and the poor will still be poor.
Stop clinging to the myth that poor are just as capable and have just as much potential as anyone else. Everyone is not created equal. Some people will always have skills, talents, and attributes that make them superior to most. Society will always value these people, and they will always accumulate wealth as a result. Its biology, not sociology.
stock market getting BTFO
what's your excuse for not shorting the market?
Because the brokerage is going to go out of business before I cash in my short.
I am, I'm shorting apple
Because I'm hoping to return some gains on some bad picks before I sell them back and then I'm going to sit out till the Bears take over.
Also there is nothing to trigger a crash right now.
Boohoo oil is low and China isn't a fucking growth madman.
Energy is gettig shit on and bankruptcies are all over the place but it's not happening across the market
So there's always talk about starting a 'biz' that's a bit more 'permanent' than the regular /biz/, and we always talk about 'team investing', and pooling money together, but there just isn't a place to do that right now for us
I'm putting forth the idea of making a website for us who want a more forum like /biz/ site where we can post our predictions on a daily basis and work together to benefit, because on 4chan /biz/ everyone doesn't give a shit and good information gets lost in archives that not a lot of people have time to look for.
on the forum i could set up a stock prediction discussion section where we predict things about the market, i can setup an 'all you need to know about investing' so newfags don't constantly post the same questions here
we can also setup a college information section and rank degrees from best to worst, as well each of us who are currently doing a degree or working in that field could write up something for it, and we could basically have all that information in one easy spot for newfags and us to look over.
Basically what I'm proposing is a /biz/ Wikipedia type thing, or /biz/ Encyclopedia, where we can all gather and share information, all the while actually having useful information that's up to date.
I'm not looking to make money off of you guys, I don't mind paying the $10 - $15 a year to host it or w/e on a site, the thing I'd like to know from you guys right now is, would you be interested in something like that?
I could password protect the site, and post the password once a week on /biz/ and I would actively ban users who shitpost, and delete irrelevant useless information and/or users from it, so we could have a 'clean' experience, focused JUST around /biz/ information.
I'm down. Email the link to me when this post gets banned by mods. [email protected]

haven't thought of the site name or anything yet, thought id wait for more input from everyone first
but its great to see some interest!

International Relations
>I want to work at an embassy for the diplomatic service. I'm definitely not really qualified for this position and I only memorize stuff for the essays and the tests without really understanding it. I'm barely knowledgeable about the subject matter, but bro I'm going to get to vacation like all of the time. Important responsibilities? Yeah I'll totally ace those bro!
>I'm going to work at an embassy for the "diplomatic service". I'm extremely knowledgeable about my work, but the position I'll be assigned to will have vague duties and little to no official responsibility. I'm DEFINITELY not going into the intelligence field.
ROBINHOOD GENERAL THREAD
What stocks are you looking at? Tell us your success stories.
first i need robinhood in Canada, so i can get some success stories for this thread
fuck me
I started with 200 dollars today. The market closed and I made 20 cents, then ir went up another 8 cents in the last 2 hours.
This is really fun i love this cool app
>>919269
If I don't have my money by tomorrow I will flip my shit. Netflix closed at a high of $115 today and went as low as $96 the last week or so. I'm looking to buy 2 or 3 limit order shares and flip them real quick for realistically a $20 - $30ish profit. Anyone else doing this? How can I make money faster, I only have $500 to trade. And no I won't trade on margin, cash only. Also why is my screen black and can I change the color scheme?
I have around $10,000 a month in "off the books" income. I sell something from the Middle East (beauty product) here in North America, and I'm sitting on like $100,000 worth of cash in my house... just spread about everywhere.
How do I launder this money, and make it go from dirty to clean, so I can spend it properly?
It's getting to a point where I'm afraid of letting anyone into my house, or always watching my back. I'm also afraid to leave the house, in case I get robbed or something.
Is there any ways, without paying too much tax on the money? It's all in cash, small denomination bills (mostly 20s).
Please help
>>913215
Why not just supplement your legitimate income by buying everyday purchases in cash? Slowly spend it all and bank the legitimate money you would have otherwise spent?
>>913237
Because I work at minimum wage in retail, and if I bought everything in cash, then it would raise suspicions as to how I'm saving so much of my "income" while being able to survive and pay bills, right?
>>913243
Probably not
How does /biz/ feel about Robinhood?
Any tips on getting into the stock market?
>>916194
bump
unless you are buying assets because you feel they are undervalued and plan to hold them for a long time, than you are basically gambling.
if you enjoy gambling or have insider information go for it.
I was wondering about buying into microsoft before their big holiday rush. Who is microsofts largest retailer and distributer?
Any mail service stocks worth getting before the holidays?

Just put my orders into Robinhood for this crazy diversified portfolio.
I mean, it's essentially impossible for *all* 8 of my selections to go out of business, right?
>>920485
Yes?
Is there something you're asking? We have a robinhood general too btw.
>>920488
I just wanted to confirm that it's unlikely to lose everything here.
So thank you.

Alright college bros, aside from the usual ways of making money while living on campus (job, intern, sell drugs) how do you make your money?
Current ideas I have:
Sell pirated software, movies, textbooks etc. on CDs
Buy a huge case of energy drinks to sell during midterms/finals in front of the library
Any other ideas for making some side change?
I close most college threads because it's all just circle jerks about major choice. This one is actually /biz/ related so I will bump it, even as a graduate.
Way to, as a college student, not be guilty of turning /biz/ into /majorcirclejerk/
>>925893
Find a supply of quaaludes (online seems easier)
Sell them at a 10.000% markup to wannabe Leo DiCaprio in Wolf of Wall Street business students (be VERY discreet though)
Alternatively, start a sports betting/stats club and pocket members' cash

Be more ambitious and take some initiative.

Take an entry level warehouse job. Take initiative and work as a team leader, always pushing people in your crew to do better, and keep attention to detail. As long as you aren't an annoying fuck about it the management should notice.
