>Tfw need references for job applications
>Tfw no
friends, unemployed and been out of education for 3 years
keep looking for jobs, guy. some companies, mostly the forward-thinking ones, dont really care about anything like that, at least in my interview experiences. the more old-fashioned ones do. ironically the ones that asked for the most references were dingy, shady looking offices i knew i didnt want to work at anyway. but maybe you're in a place that doesnt have many choices (im in nyc)
anyway good luck. you can always lie.
>>1240707
I can be your reference. I'll tell them you did my company's finances and impregnated my wife for me. A great team player!
Is friends as reference a meme or does it really happen in Murrica?
Sounds retarded on every level
What are the best brokerage firms to use. Im intermediatly experienced and been using options xpress for awhile
DeGiro in Europe
>>1240644
Don't touch Degiro, shady as fuck. They have a clause that they're allowed to shortsell your shares through their hedge, if the shortseller doesn't pay back they're not entitled to compensate you for them. They also do inhouse matching (aka if you make a bid and someone through them has a sell order, they are matched through inhouse rather than through an exchange). There's also accusing that their orders are marked priority, aka if you have a bid and they have it too theirs will only go through.

bitcoin = tcp/ip open internet
Get in or die deprecated.
They have been trying to remarket the whole thing for plebs as "blockchain technology" because they are scared that everyone runs a swiss account on their pocket.
Bitcoin is crypto 1.0
Ethereum is crypto 2.0 and internet 3.0.
Buy eth or die

Are scarsity and sovereignty meant yo be bad things?
What's the best brokerage firm to buy federal reserve stock? The federal reserve seems to be a really solid company imo, thinking of getting in on the action.

Top kek 11/22
Are you a sovereign nation or a "too big to fail" bank?
If yes, why don't you have a broker?
If no, try again next time.
>>1240582
Sure, bro. You are restricted to $25 grand worth, though. Walk in to the St. Louis Fed and tell them you want to buy $25k worth of stock. Cite the US code below. Record it on Youtube and then report back here.

BIND
FCX
short mitsubishi motors.
take gain starts at 477, don't go for premiums if you'r looking at 460, just short again at 473.
between 73 and 77/79 there is too much speculation, robot trading, i wouldn't risk it
Hey biz i want to have a lifestyle where i take photos of pretty women around the world. And get paid for it. I am pretty good at getting attractive girls to model for me for free/affordably so i feel like the buying power of the USD in weaker economy countries will make i even more enticing for these girls to model for me, plus the chance at developing them as an international model (that shot at that sweet sweet h1b visa)
Looking at a location independent life. Is this viable? How do i sell these photos/gain income? I am assuming blog about it yes. Instagram page sure,...

become a generic instagram/facebook photographer. get a flashy website buy your initial followers, and take it from there.
requirements:
- be good
- have enough time to work a lot
- have mainstream appeal
bombard the internet with your stuff. it's the only way to penetrate an ultrasaturated market. buy likes and followers. fake popularity. have little stickers done with your logo, when you go out with friends to the bars have a 50 stack of them in your back pocket and plaster them everywhere...

Save up enough money that you can do this without worrying about income. Then you can only worry about being arrested as a prevert.
I'm in a bit of a trap here.
I'm from a really small app dev company, 4 employees (2 programmers, one marketing guy and hired artist).
Our current app has pretty much reached its user limit and income limit.
It allows us to pay our wages, but is not enough to hire a programmer, because currently programmer rates are much higher than any other professions.
We are from Eastern Europe/Russia.
How do I find a decent programmer who would be able to make simple games without breaking the bank? I'm thinking to offer rev share model...

Use a pajeet

have a female friend who is a programmer. she got hired for peanuts while still studying. says it was good experience but ofc horrible pay.
maybe you can reach out and try to hire students.
You already have two programmers. If they cannot learn, fire them and hire new ones. Most programmers should be able to handle simple games, especially if it's just 2D OpenGL. If they can't and can't learn, then you can do better.
ITT: Post companies and businesses that you think will not go to shit over the next decade.

Blizzard went shit the moment they sold off to Activision, just because you enjoy their shitty Hearthstone game doesn't mean they're a good company.
>>1240497
Dont play any of their games mate. But I think they are a solid company. Overwatch, CoD franchise, Gaming League, but most important is their ownership of King Digital.
Is investing in Helium a good idea?
maybe until we can go to jupiter and pick up some liquid helium when we need it

But there IS a shortage...
I was told that you could make decent money harvesting gold & other metals from computer scrap.
Is this true? Or is this just one of those things where you'll be putting in too much effort for too little return?
>>1240427
Someone actually typed this out.
>>1240411
Yes and no. If you live in an area that gives a shit about the environment it will be tough. Is you live somewhere you can dump the leftover scrap and harmful chemicals in a ditch go for it.
>>1240411
There was a poster on here awhile ago who went into this industry.
He was making 200k or so but had a 15million dollar facility. Sounds like you will need volume, equipment, and most of all buyers.
But if you did this with random junk I'm sure you might be able to get 50 bucks if you know what you're doing.

What did you do? I'm thinking about just putting down fake phone numbers and hope they dont call
Or should I just leave them blank
>>1240401
Get friends. Have them cover for you as references. Easy.
If you're lucky you can use a parent who owns a business as a reference and say you work for them. Even better if your parent has a different last name from you.

What are some good closing questions for interviews?
I have a job interview tomorrow and I'm a little stuck on thinking of some good ones that don't sound cliche as if they're from some meme blog.

Ask what the simplified pay rate return is and what the leveraged under bottom capital for the company currently is. It'll impress him that you know your shit, just make sure to say it with genuine interest and enthusiasm.
>>1240340
i-i don't even know what that is
>>1240342
Sounds like you're a meme.
business ideas needed!! what could I do with a smaller plot of land (10-20 acres)? ive come to a blank other than sheep ranching. (other kind or ranching is improbable in the desert). cactus farming? im really kind of at a loss. any ideas would be great, and no theres not a house out there or utilities, but I CAN get it all out there.
Paintball/airsoft field??
>>1240231
theres no people where the land is. way west texas where I can get 20 acres for like 4k. paintball field is a no go. but I actually like the idea for a place closer to the city

Syndicate a deal and have someone else finance construction of a mobile home park
Decided to check stocks for a few companies.
Saw this.
What the hell is it? An error??
>>1240229
after hours trading is only allowed and limited to very small group of people, its either a mistake or a large hedge fun or other institution dropped a million in stocks but rebought. again thats highly unlikely
>>1240237
Thanks, figured it was some kind of mistake.
>>1240245
No mistake. It's a large client (HF or IB) playing the game like it was meant to be played.
