if you have a joint account with someone, can you wreck their credit by loading up on debt using the account as collateral and then clean the account out?
just another reason never to share an account with a woman

Had to change careers and leave a cake job so wifey could stay home with kiddies. Joint account everything. She decides to start a business from home. Cosigned on 30k worth of debt. I am not a smart man.

This. Give blowjobs to every bank manager in town.

Please be joking.
It's a roulette wheel stock.
I'm in it myself but only for a couple grand as a gamble.

Is real estate literally "Become rich for dummies"?

No, you're thinking of FOREX.

this.

Real estate in the 90's and early 2000's?
Fuck yes. That's when "flipping houses" became a thing
Why hasn't Walmart become a major competitor to Amazon and Ebay in the e-commerce market?
>>1377713
Maybe because Amazon has never been profitable ever? Why would they invest in a market where competition is huge and profits scarce?
>>1377713
Broken search engine like 99% of all online stores.
Walmart's entire consumer base is poor people, dindus, trailer trash, illegal aliens.
You can't use food stamps and EBT on Amazon.
Amazon is also trying to create a super monopoly, so they sell a lot of products at what basically accounts for a net loss.
Is university a scam or will it really get me much further ahead in life?
I'm a 19 year old Canadian here and I'm deciding whether or not I should spend over $60,000 on 4 years of university (Saskatchewan) or $12,000 on 2 years at a technical college (SAIT). I'm going for mechanical engineering and I want to hear your thoughts on it. I've already been accepted to University of Saskatchewan for mechanical engineering but I have put it on hold for the year. I still have the option of backing out and going to 2 years at SAIT instead. My family is kind...

It's a scam that will help get you further in life.
More than likely, when you get out of Uni you'll be fucking useless to the company and they'll have to form you all over again. The thing is you will get to set foot in the company because they know you have solid basis and are able to work hard. Succeeding without completing a degree was easier a few decades ago when everybody else did not have one already.
If you want to work in engineering, I'd say it's imperative.
>>1377651
Yeah bro.
Total scam, required by HR departments to get good jobs and is pretty much god-tier for networking with profs, alumni and students. Total scam tho
trade job and certifications are better options unless your going into med field. self teach yourself everything to create/do what you want
The big 4 all have officers in my city due to the very beneficial tax laws in my country. Deloitte and Ernst & Young both have "job fairs" next week where they are inviting local talented students and recent graduates to attend.
I have a pretty good educational background so I don't think that would be an issue. I just want to know how make the most of this opportunity. And to anyone who's worked at a big 4 company, how was the experience.
>>1377424
Depends on which department you work and also on the office culture. Wvery country is different but in general it's a good place to work. Would recommend it.
Also at least for EY, they take work-life balance pretty serious
You're in Dublin, yessum?
Practice the interview, know their business and show up on time
>>1377783
No not Dublin.
This isn't an interview, just a "job fair" (I don't know what else to call it) where they've invited about 100 people to come learn about life at the firm.
I will definitely practice for the interview if and when it comes however.
Get a giant loan, then sell all your posessions.
Now put all of your money in some crypto currency (dont stop reading).
Then decalre bankrupcy.
The entire thing with cc is that its untraceable, which means that you should be able to keep all of it trough the bankrupcy proccess.
Then move to another country.
You now have everything you started with + the money form the loan.
There is no apparent reason for this not working.
won't get a 'giant' loan without nothing that is worth the hassle
>>1377384
I have a good credit score and a constant income. I could quite easily get loans worth 5 or 6 times my income currently.

Yes but people will ask where did it go

Is marriage the worst financial decision you can make if you're a man?
pic related to preempt the fedora accusations
>>1376356
If marriage is a financial decision for you, start a Fleshlight collection instead.
>>1376356
No, unless you marry a used up bimbo or gold digging whore, which un-surprisingly are the only girls that will ever touch you.
Anons, lets discuss daytrading. Everything from strategies to brokers.
Any tips for the new daytrader? Been daytrading for a couple of months and only recently i have been making profit daily.
What stocks/indexes are good to trade?
>>1376260
What apps/websites do you use? Also I've been wondering. This isn't really related to day trading, but is Acorn worth it? It's a mobile app that invests spare change from your purchases into a bunch of different companies automatically. But it costs 1$ dollar a month. How much would I need to invest to even recuperate the costs of using the app? Does anyone else use this?
>>1376308
ETX capital. Has a very nice setup and low spread, with many indicators. Apps (mobile) seem kinda shit since you cant have as many indicators and info (atleast the apps i have found)

This looks like CFD's, not stock.
Almost no burgers trade CFD's.

You don't know what anything about them besides what you see on they're profiles
They could be up to their ass in debt and drug addictions.
If doesn't matter anyway. Just focus on yourself
Most of my classmates are military cucks, minimumwager at moms momshouse, homeless on drugs, moved to some state like arizona cause too poor to live in california, a few people got into software and are doing alright, nothing really notable. I'm probably on par with the software people for now.
This is a thread used to explain what LBRY and LBC is and what it does as well as discuss it's potential as a biz and crypto.
What is LBRY?

Since pokemon go was release and became a viral fad nintendo stocks have increased from 14,380yen to 21,270yen. but how high will the rocket fly before it runs out of fuel?

Their new console is a fail.
>>1375779
millennials will probably buy it anyway. especially now. plus it has a new zelda on it apparently, they love pretending they know what that is
>>1375769
I project this trend to cruise through the release of their Animal Crossing shit, and subsequently flounder when they release the NX, and it's proven to be a huge fucking flop.
People will jump ship once they realize nobody plays GO anymore (because like all Pokemon games, their about as stale as their first couple weeks), and that Nintendo is not a app developing company.
If I was Nintendo, I would flex my muscles and buy out some software companies developing modern games, and any companies developing...

Dude, why would you open a new thread about this?
It's impossible to make a live out of gambling, except for poker. But still, making poker your main income can be stressful as shit and you have to be really good at it.
