Hey there!
Is there somebody in the Orlando area who needs help in something?
I'm actually working as a manager in a nursing home but I don't want to work there anymore! Worst job of my life.
I'm applying to jobs online but this is urgent. I need to get out quick!
>>1248748
>Somebody in Orlando willing to give me a job?
Probably but I doubt they're reading /biz/. Get your head straight dumbass.
Disney, Universal, Restaurants along the I-4.
>>1248748
do you own some decent knee pads?
we are looking for hard working individuals to work in customer service in OPT area!
It gets incredibly hot in the summer where I live, which means electricity/air conditioning bills are high.
In an effort to save/make extra money, I want to not be home as much as possible.
Where to look/what jobs can I look for that will allow me to literally do nothing all day/watch animu.
a lot of IT jobs if youre qualified
security guard if all else fails
>>1248667
Don't you need some certification or something to get a security guard job?
>>1248670
yeah basic background check and license (company pays for it)
I run a fairly popular online gaming service with a few hundred active users and a profit of $7000/year. I'm considering moving on from it, as it takes some work to maintain. How much do you think this service would be worth if I sold the whole thing? Is there any marketplace where I could connect with potential buyers?
>>1248613
Check out flippa.com and it's ilk to get an idea of pricing?
>>1248613
Can you elaborate a bit more about what this service is?
Don't sell it, hire a couple people to
manage it for you and let them grow it out themselves. Tell them it won't be their full time job but can earn them a little revenue.
Otherwise I would sell it for 3-5 years worth ie $21k~35k
This might not be a straight /biz/ question, but it's a serious question, and law is related to /biz/
So I'm a non-law school/pre-law dude who just lucked into a legal research internship. What are some basic resources to use for researching things like case law and pending lawsuits?
bump
I don't have accounts for the PACER system, Westlaw, Bloomberg Law, etc.
I'm on Justia right now looking for active/pending lawsuits
I need some fuckin guidance
>>1248498
Your job should arrange for your Westlaw access. You sign up for a pay-as-you go account, but its not cheap. But there's no reason why you would pay this yourself unless the job is a scam.
PACER accounts are free. You don't need to be a lawyer, so just sign up and get your credentials. Unless you're doing a massive amount of searches, you won't have any fees.
>>1248646
I don't think it's a scam ...
I think he might have thought I had access to Westlaw or PACER through my university, but we don't have a dedicated law program (and our pre-law isn't great from what I can tell), so I do not have access through the school, but I'm going to double check that tomorrow morning.
I didn't realize PACER could be free. I saw the 10 cents a page, $3.00 per document maximum charges, but I thought I couldn't even get that far without being at...

Is indeed.com a scam? I keep getting emails and phone calls from random companies i never applied to. How the fuck do they get my resume? And no I did not upload it to the website

Hey, /biz/ I was visiting this site for the first time. Please be nice.
I was thinking about how many people with fetishes and money there are in the world, and how to develop a product for their needs.
I was literally laughed off /lgbt/ and /pol/ when I presented my idea, so I wanted to know what the hard working intelligent people of /biz/ thought.
Because you guys and girls know how these type of things work and how to do them, your opinion will be very valuable.
I'm thinking about doing a kickstarter thread, and If some of you guys have knowledge...

The sketch is a little rough you should try designing one and modeling it
>>1248340
I wish!!!
what do you suggest, like get a diaper and dye it and make a mock up? would this be enough for a manufacturer to construct or what?
>>1248332
well, it's a niche within a niche product. caters to those who, within the fetish world of diaperwearing, like wearing feminine and sexy girly diapers, instead of diapery-diapers.
so i'd say you have a high likelyhood of everyone of those wanting to buy one or support the kickstarter.
because of that i'll say, the success is entirely dependant on how well you can manage to reach out to those people. what corners of the internet do they hang out in? how do you market to them without...

Hey /biz/, where do I start in creating a portfolio for investing and what is the most recommended for starters? I'm in my early 20s living independently with a decent full-time job to get me by with extra money left-over at the end of the month. The hardest part for me is knowing where to start and I'm the type of person to learn as I go. Any advice is very appreciated
>>1248270
Index funds and after that index funds. No knowledge needed and you will outperform 3/4 of all fund managers.
Same here, bump
>>1248274
so i decided to take your advice after looking more into index funds. After some extensive research, it seems like I should set-up a Three-fund portfolio somehow
i want to start a tees bushiness what are good ways to market them and how to go about it with not much money

Let's say that I fall upon some financial hard times and withdraw $16,500 from my Roth IRA(That is, 3 years of principal contributions).
Am I allowed to, in the next year, contribute that same $16,500+$5,500 or am I only allowed to contribute that maximum annual amount?
maximum annual contribution
your decision to withdrawal doesnt change that
>>1248221
Damn, that's some bullshit.
Thanks though!
Can some direct me or teach how promotions in jobs work? Specifically with engineering. We all know a lot of "high paying" jobs start off with a 100k salary. But people who make a million a year could have started out with 50k starting salary jobs, and somehow got more raises. I tried looking up maximum and medium salary, but even those arn't close to what these millionaires that started out with 50k jobs make.
Im confused how these promotions/raises work. What jobs would have lots of promotions, and what jobs would stagnate? Im guessing business jobs get...

>Im guessing business jobs get the most raises, then doctors, then engineers based on what Ive heard over the years
Quite the contrary. You will always need a project lead in engineering. You will always need a higher level guy to lead a certain element. That's not the case with business. (No idea about medicine) They need much more people at a lower level than they need at a higher level.
>>1247801
that makes sense. always need a higher level guy, huh.
>>1247797
For the most part, people don't become millionaires by means of promotion or working for someone else.
What is the measure/term of the amount of money a country has to spend? Not including assets and debtors. just money right there and ready to go? borrowed or not.

Money a government has to spend to be more specific

Senior in highschool here /biz/ . Got a 97 on my ASVAB and am enlisting in airforce after the summer to do electric systems. I plan to become an electrician when I get out and live frugally until I am 45, and from there I want to buy property and rent it out and live off passive income for the rest of my life.
That was my score and I went Navy Nuke because the pay is way better. That being said, you want to kill yourself on a daily basis.
But hey, not many people can put nuclear electrician on their resume.
I bought my first house at 24 (4.5yrs active duty) with money I made in the service and the investments made with same funds.
I think I only invested like $3k of my own money for lawyer fees, real estate, and such, but I have really good credit and didnt need a down payment.
The tenants pay nearly double the mortgage price. After HOA fees, insurance, a little...

ive heard many shitty things about being a navy nuke, what is it like?
>>1247781
It really all depends on your attitude and your command.
I was on a submarine for three years. The work was hard, the hours sucked, but I made the greatest friends with some of the coolest people, and I got to see and do a lot of cool shit. I really grew as a person in those three years.
Right now I'm on a carrier. The daily life is marginally better, but the people suck. A bunch of douchebag chiefs who don't feel fulfilled in life unless they're bossing people around.
There's too...

I'm considering running a mobile coffee chart, I havn't seen any so far in my country (Poland).
You don't have to pay for rent or maintenance which you normally do if you run a coffeshop, so the cost of making one coffee is around 0.25$ and you can sell it for 1$ (which is still much lower than in a normal coffeshop).
Have you ever seen something like this? Do you think it was successful?
>>1247559
don't sell for less than a normal coffeeshop. sell for more.
the combination of highprice and shop novelty will make the coffee taste way better.
>>1247559
Now are you supposed to steer that thing? Isn't everything going to fall off?
>>1248558
the cart pivots a bit on the front

I'm looking for ways to hop on the ETH train that don't involve exchanging USD. I looked into sucking dicks, but it turns out that isn't really viable.
I'm a programmer by trade, so I have some relevant skills to leverage, I'm just not aware of any platform for doing so (perhaps I should create one?). Not interested in faucets or any similar drudgery.

Why not create a faucet?
