It would be wise to keep in mind that this life shit is about the journey. It's not about the destination and all of the goodies you can get out by the end of it.

I don't know about all of you, but unless you have a death wish and don't respect yourself, looking back on your life wondering what in the hell you actually did with it at all sounds depressing and I don't want to end up like that fool.

My goal is to work remotely for a mid sized startup / large software company while living in a small town where everyone knows each other and nature is at my door. Save up a ton due to low CoL then retire by 45 and work as a schoolteacher or open a bar.

I'm sure I'll be able to become one of the people working 3-4 hrs a week, just checking up on my businesses/investments, and driving a $100k german coupe. I think I could achieve much more but being realistic, I'll probably grow complacent once I'm comfortable.

Military for you.

Go back. Do a different major.

Just go back to uni.

In wealthy countries, the "bum" is often just a mentally ill person without means for treatment.

The rest are usually struggling with substance addiction.

My gut feeling is to feel sorry for the first and ignore the latter, but I'm getting soft in my old age and have begun to feel pity for even the drunk or addict.

Subhuman trash.

There's no reason for being this way in North America, of all places.

People come to this continent from across oceans, barely speaking English or understanding the culture and customs yet they establish themselves often times in one or two generations.

What is the excuse of some fag who has grown up there all his life and speaks English as a native language?

>>924144
No longer the case. In wealthy countries, another category of bums emerged, which are the ordinary honest working citizens who were deceived by bankers and robbed of their houses and jobs.

Most posters on /biz/ are one month or mistake away from being homeless. One false move and you're a bum. Maybe your parent dies, or your boss fires you, and you're a bum the next day.

>Is technical analysis bullshit?
duh

>>913000

Did you make any money in forex? No? Well then shut the fuck up noob.

>>913003
Yeah, I did/do. The reason why I'm wondering if because I traded manually and the other day I went to a conference where a bunch of autists were trying to sell their 'Expert Advisors' (fancy name for trading bot). When asked how their autism trader 2.0 decides to act, they all went that it's 'high speed technical analysis'. I'm a bit torn, I could program my own bot but it sounds fucking retarded.

Sucks ass man. But it's not that big of a deal, you'll find something else. Just think of the skills you gained from this experience.

Just move on and you'll get over it. There's different platforms, etc.

>>916378
well did you do anything sketchy? they don't want to prevent anyone from selling, particularly someone who makes them a lot of money through fees.

Do you not have a lawyer? If you didn't violate their TOS they have no reason to suspend your account, especially if you're earning 6 grand a month with it.

Calling them on the phone is going to do nothing, but a letter from a lawyer will get your account back up in no time.

I don't know how.

Learn java

A) I don't know how

B) I make more money doing other shit

Is Equity the same thing as Networth?

Or is net worth is all your equity together?

>>899153

Net worth is the value of all of your assets - all of your liabilities.

So if you own a house worth $300k and have a mortgage on it of $200k, you have equity of $100k in that house.

And that $100k is part of your net worth. They're very similar concepts.

Equity would usually apply to things or organizations more than people. Net worth usually applies to people.

In certain circumstances they're the same thing, such as how shareholder's equity is also the net worth of a business. From an accounting perspective, anyway. Businesses can be worth more or less than their stated equity.

>>899167
Thanks bruh.

I'm checking out Gnucash, accounting is p cool. I'm thinking about majoring in compsci with either a minor in accounting or finance.

You are missing the point. Financial institutions are party to crimes that their employees commit. Gov't investigates large bank. Bank says, Oh shit! We're busted."

Gov't says, "We'll take away your charter to do business in this country!"

Financial institutions says, "Noooooooo!!!" We'll pay whatever you want to leave us alone as long as we don't have to admit we did anything wrong..." Govt says, "OK....we'll fuck over the people and bring them to justice."

Govt gets huge amount of cash, banks had 20 times that in reserve for such a thing anyway, everyone moves on, employees go to prison.

So, financial institutions sort of get away with crimes but people generally don't.

Stuff without paperwork like titles but not it too high security either. Generators, Solar equipment, electronics, equipment etc..

With current inflation it's not worth the risk for anything that can't be flipped for at least $1,000

Just index

>>741703

So I would just do that through my bank? I read somewhere as well that you can purchase a fund that can track commodities or a specific market as well like Insuranc.

>>741701

Awesome, guessing you graduated high school a year early or are turning 20 this year.

Are you in Canada?

... but still, fuck off.

Probably your best bet to get moderately wealthy. The salary cap is probably around $500k a year if you get into a very senior position, which is lower than in fields like consulting, banking, and law. Consulting and law tops out at around $1-3 million/year, and finance can be pretty much limitless but unless you're insanely smart and insanely lucky you're probably looking at around $1 million/year.

Keep in mind it's a very very competitive business, so yeah, unless you actually invent the next Facebook your most optimistic scenario is owning a software firm making shit for clients, which in itself is not at all easy task, too.

Running your own IT is the best bet, working IT for anyone else is a low ceiling death trap unless you get into sys admin (your co-workers will be autists) or security.

You'll want to start by buying about $50 in tools (basic laptop repair kit, basic tablet/phone repair kit, sata to usb, flashdrive to boot puppy linux), and make online ads on any sites you can find.

You'll also want to make a website and e-mail address specifically for the setup, but don't drop any money into them yet. Make a gmail account and a wordpress website, once you get going and have decent experience you can drop $20/month into changing your gmail and wordpress into your own domain and your own @domain to be more professional. You should also consider using Google Voice for a forwarding phone number that only goes to voicemail, this way you can put a number on your site but never get bothered on your own line.

I know this because I'm doing it. Also don't operate in northern-central MA, I'll cut you for getting in on my turf.

1 open Halifax Sharebuilder stocks and shares ISA
2 set up regular deposit of £300 per month
3 spend time each month researching a company or fund. at the beginning pick simple trackers and FTSE100 companies. no /biz/ day trading penny shares shit.
4 set up the regular investment in the ISA for that share or ETF or whatever
5 in 10 months you will have a neat little portfolio and if you did step 3 properly you should be getting a bit of capital growth or a small income from it. or if not then it should be teaching you some valuable lessons.
6 reinvest dividends, keep up regular investment. get rich slowly.

>>729705
That's a great answer, thanks!

Bought an hf ebook about making money.

Another seller I bought thousands of games from got in on this and was going to keep me posted if he could make money with it so I could buy the codes off of him like a middleman. Thing was though that people needed to have a specific OS in order to be able to use his codes. So of course he sold like 10 but nearly all came back wanting refunds.

Haven't talked with him in a while, might have to see if he's got new inventory he wants to offload on me.

>put up a steam code for sale - 5 days
>auction option, video game category
>listings get removed within 24 hours
>call ebay and ask how can others do this yet I can't (they also have 99999 feedback from doing it)
>they say I should just report them
>report them, nothing happens

yeah I know there's a high scam rate on steam games / digital delivery, but I still don't understand how these big accounts stay up breaking the rules. whatever.

Ballpark my net worth, if you would?

Do I have a convenient patsy to put all of the liability onto and then parachute out?

And can I expect a bailout from the government?

>>720250
Your company net worth is 1.5 mil but you be hemoraging money, patsy if you can find one, no bailout this time.

>>720244
