>I don't think I need credit anyway
you do if you ever want a car, home, etc
>>1315768
I don't know but I earn 40k USD and have over 200k in available credit.
I fucked up and got 25K into debt... it doesn't look bad on paper because its hardly over 10% utility....
Feelsbadman.
Don't get anymore credit card.
>>1315768
use the CC to build up a good credit score and make sure to pay it back every month. It'll make your mortgage cheaper if you need it.
I came up with a business plan
>buy a couple acres of land as close to a large city as possible
>grade property
>get lines for gas/power/hydro out to as many lots as you want
>install concrete pads
>asphalt for roads
>buy cheap used mobiles to put on lots
>sell each as owned lot properties
Would soft costs bankrupt it from day one, or ingenious investment?
>>1315690
Most places won't give zoning for mobile homes, especially close to the cities. Also I don't think you realize how much that stuff costs. Just a gas line might cost 10k.
>>1315690
good plan if you have a time machine to go 100 years back
buy eth
Holy shit cryptos are such a shitshow. I have to tell you its entertaining as hell watching them crash and burn over and over though. Watching bitcoiners reactions after MtGox was probably one of the funniest things I have seen in a long time. Bitcoin has STILL not recovered years later. Now ethereum gets their shit pushed in too. I wish I had screenshotted all the posts about the DAO and how it is "immutable code" so it is "literally impossible for someone to take off with the funds". Fucking lmao.
He didn't go get away with the funds. He just caused the panic and the watched his Eth DAO short position make him rich.

When will nocoiners learn?
, especially SEA. How do you feel about them?
It seems to me like they are still quite poor and undeveloped but filled with ambitious and hard-working people. Also reasonable political stability compared to say Africa or the Middle-East.
What do you think about the potential? Who will most likely profit off of it, local companies or large multinational corporations expanding there?
>>1315225
There's good and bad kinds of political stability. Venezuela had a lot of stability under Chavez, but the expropriation risk is unbelievably high.
Thailand is a fucking basket case and I wouldn't get anywhere near it until the king dies and there's another coup. South Africa and Russia are the other countries in this camp.
Vietnam has a reasonably active market - they have a lot of foreign investor restrictions that make it difficult for foreigners to have a very big in stake in companies...

High risk, low to mediocre reward
Odds tip significantly in your favor if you are familiar with the organized crime structure of said third world market
>>1315225
There's a lot of potential for these markets, but probably not until things get ironed out in Europe and US growth picks up. The success of frontier markets is highly dependent on continued investment from developed economies. Investors and banks in the first world aren't really in a place to be pouring a lot of money into these economies to chase potential growth when things are still falling apart in their own back yard.
More about the attack: http://www.coindesk.com/dao-attacked-code-issue-leads-60-million-ether-theft/
The DAO lost $6 million USD worth of ETHER in the attack.
Vitalik Buterin, the creater of ether has advised all major exchanges to halt ether and dao exchanges.

Death of DAO & ETHER
>>The DAO lost **$60 million USD** worth of ETHER in the attack.
Wonder what John Travolta thinks about all this.
ALL MAJOR EXCHANGES HAVE HALTED EXCHANGE OF ETHER & DAO TO PREVENT DUMPING OF THE TOKENS.

- Anyone here have a successful and durable experience in forex trading ?
- What's techniques did you use ?
- With how much money did you begin ?
- Gives me advice for a beginner like me, please.
I am really sad when i read specialized forums in forex, why?
Because all the trading journal I read ends the same way :
They end up losing all their gains and have their account to 0 dollars, after 6 months or 1 year.
I need testimonials from people who really live forex successfully since several years.

Margin trading is hard, I managed to triple my money before losing it all on a random downswing. Only a small amount of money, but still.
Why are naked CDS still not forbidden?
>>1314821
Because the whole derivatives market is an unregulated, unsupervised, off-the-books, private shitshow.
Because if I know a company is going to default on their loans, if I have the expertise to know that, I should be able to make money off of it.

isn't that insider trading?
What is a cryptocurrency? How do I use it? How do I buy/sell it? Where do I keep it?
Teach me, /biz/.
Also I have a lot of junk in my yard. How I handle transactions on E-bay when I live in a third world country in Europe?
Basically buy ethereum.
>>1314805
the problem with trying to sell stuff on ebay for you will be the shipping fees. i recommend you find an online buying/selling marketplace in your own country to minimize these fees (or post them on craigslist and sell them that way).
if your country doesn't have an online marketplace then there is a great business opportunity for you.
>>1314805
you are in the third world, so you should be looking for ways to scam gullible first worlders. bitcoins are a fantastic way to involuntarily transfer wealth from dumb americans to russians and chinese.

So WWE just announced the signing of their first ever Chinese talent, and also have a deal with streaming service PPtv to stream their shows in China. Is now a good time to buy WWE stock?
I don't know a anything about stocks, but probably not.
Honestly is wrestling something that does better in a recession? Its an infearior entertainment.

Don't invest based off 'feelings' or future readings.
Look at how much the company earns, compare their debt, and research on estimates vs. actual reports. A company doesn't mean they will make money just because they are investing in China due to a 'new untouched market.' Disney is investing in China, and their stock hasn't moved; actually fallen since I bought their stock.

Let's start a trend: Only post vanity addresses with 14CHAN at the beginning so we can create a network of /biz/ transactions over the Bitcoin blockchain.
>How do I make one?
Windows: https://github.com/downloads/samr7/vanitygen/vanitygen-0.22-win.zip
Uncompile
vanitygen.exe 14CHAN
Linux:
Just clone the git repo and compile it from there (faster)
./vanitygen 14CHAN
It took me under 30 seconds to make a 14CHAN address.
Save the output to a file and share that address.

You need to start teaching people how to play NAFTA like events.
The next one coming up in 2017 is the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP.) It's basically NAFTA for the Pacific region.
If Biz goes all "if you can't beat them, join them," it can at least make some legit buck off the crooked financial system.
That's a better fate than bitching on the internet all day.
Lets glance into the future and figure out inevitable trends to early invest in.
Here's some ideas:
>robotics companies specifically making automation tech
>desalinization
>gene therapy/genetic manipulation companies, GMO companies, monsanto or better alternatives.
>personalized health-tech companies
>Crypto-currency (bitcoin/eth/monero/possibly future yuan or speculate next reserve currency)
>Large-scale hydroponics/aquaponics operations, or other urban farming.
>Virtual Reality
What else futurists? I assume all would have to be publicly traded unless you're a Silicon valley socialite.

A few years ago i was arrested for public intoxication (i threw up outside waiting for a taxi). A week prior to this i fell down some stairs and scraped my arm. The officer saw that my arm was scraped and took me to the hospital against my will and the nurse looked me over and said 'ok' and there was no "treatment". I asked her in front of the arresting officer "when does it look like this happened?" and she said "at least a few days ago". I was there against my will, they did nothing to 'treat me', and i have a statement from...

What are the most common white-hat methods of advertising a new website? Been out of the game for the past 6 years.
>>1328638
Social Marketing. Start a page on facebook, find awesome pictures and use them for featured articles on your we page, use catchy titles for your content and repost to your facebook page. You can increase your fb page popularity via link collider or typical social engagement for posting interesting content that people will share that may or may not be connected to your webpage.
Having a few decent backlinks and making sure your website is submitted to google/bing/yahoo will go a long ways aswell.
