Hey biz so i recently got a good gig at a country club with extremely wealthy members who are at the top of their companies or even owners. How can i network with them even thought theyre on a completely different socio economic level. im still in school majoring in accounting but going to switch to econ or finance once i transfer from cc.
im a valet btw
>pic related how i think members will react if i just ask them for a job
>>1237337
This board can't help you with that. Try by remembering all their names and opportune chances to talk about anything, not just /biz/ness, I bet they go there to get away from work. If any of them gets kinda chummy find a way to discreetly throw in your major and any advice. Some of those higher up folks sometimes feel like wanting a protege or helping out a fellow economics oriented person on the right path. If you fuck this up or waste this chance, it isyour fault.
>>1237342
thanks fellow bizraeli
part of my job is actually to remember their names we dont give out valet tickets we use their names to keep track of their cars
the only problem is i only see them for maybe a few minutes at most while im taking their car or getting it for them and not all members use valet some of them self park
Tell them you know a guy in Alaska who wins massive % in forex and futures because if his mystical autism triangles! That will really impress them. Then refer them to me right here on this thread.
I have literally nothing going on in my life at this moment, so I'm thinking about buying a one way ticket to the US, find whatever job, and an apartment for a couple of months.
How easy is it? How much can I expect to pay in rent for a very small apartment in a decent location? I live in Sweden, and I currently pay $1100 a month for a shitty apartment in which I only ever hang out in one room anyway. The location is not even good either.
Help me out /biz/, I figure you're the right ones to ask about this kind of stuff.
Are you white?
>>1237300
I am.
>>1237302
Why do you want to come here? If you have nothing going for you, Sweden is probably a better spot to be than the U.S. For all the hype about government welfare, you really have to work hard here or you're gonna barely make it. Doesn't Sweden basically pay you to be alive? Btw, how are you paying for that apartment anyway if you don't do anything?
If you have plenty of cash and good credit, do you have to prove you're employed to rent an apt in America?
no as long as you pay your rent on time why the cocks would they care what you do?
it's rough to rent without income
you'll have to prove that you can pay a good portion of the lease with your savings alone. potentially an advance, bank statements, proof of past employment and rental history, etc.
saying "i'm good for it, i promise" isn't enough
you a drug dealer? trust fund baby?
>>1237268
you can pay a years worth of rent. as long as you pass a background check im sure most places would allow this

What does /biz/ think of the trades?
What would be the best trade to get into, if at all?
I find the lack of brown people in your picture disingenuous
>>1237255
Not a very good return of investment; overglorified by middle class cynical about university.
Depends on your local economy.
If you live near a large metropolitan area, know somebody, and can get into the local Union like IBEW or teamsters, and can learn to suck enough dick (metaphorically and possibly physically), then you can be pushing $35 an hour by 25.

I'm currently in the process of making a mobile game. How the fuck do I make money off it? I don't necessarily expect to me LMAO RICH NIGGA 4 LYFE successful just some supplemental income(100-400 a month). I want to combine with the money I make off my online work to buy a car.
Unless your game is extraordinary, it's initial performance in terms of users who download it for the first time will be directly related to how much you've marketed the upcoming release of your game.
Common strategies seem to be a free to play download version and either or both a pay a little for non-ads version, or microtransactions and timer based gated content.
Or an initial payment to download it, and then no ads from the get go, but usually still microtransactions.
From listening to interviews of indie and small company devs, income...

Micro-transactions that give an advantage. If your game is good enough kiddies will buy shit because they want to feel superior.
>>1237229
so basically just do FNAF style shit?
I am so confused as to why the answers are what they are in the retained earnings and paid in capital from treasury sections (answers highlighted in red are the ones i got wrong). Can someone please explain how to calculate the correct values for retained earnings and paid in capital to treasury to me which is the screen on the right.
I should also add the previous section of the problem.
>>1237192
holy fuck you retard
you literally just posted the solution in the same image.
>>1237224
no, i am comparing my answers to the provided answers, I want to know how to get those answers because I could not figure it out.
I'm putting this out for people that are interested in doing some Art work for a 2D game.
This would be something you do out of interest for game's and art.
You will have the freedom to design a character and all the other sprites/art needed.
Something that people would say
> You will not be paid for this but you can put it on your CV, portfolio, etc.
I’m a student. The market is cruel. So yes you will not be paid (unless the game make’s profit)
Why 4chan ... I was a guy who had to put a lot of effort into...

Game dev. here, There are so many greater places to recruit artists for 2d games. Hell people willing to do it for free.
>>1237186
Can you give me some directions?
I want to give people that don't know where to look a chance :)
>>1237189
There are tons.

I know some people wont agreed, but search through furry artists in e621.net, furaffinity or where ever furries are. Sure majority of the art is porn...but notice how many high quality pictures of detailed sperm splashes and facial expressions are produced and displayed publicly for free, now ask one of those artists to draw some basic 128x128 items for a 2d game. Just a thought.
Really quick question, I have a microeconomics exam tomorrow and I'm trying to figure out the proper answer to this question from a past exam, but I can't find it in my notes.
I think he's referring to price only moving along the curves and never shifting them, but I'm not sure.
Any help?
>>1237096
Because lower price increases demand but decreases supply and a higher price decreases demand but increases supply. Balancing to an equilibrium.
>>1237096
This question seems insane to me.
Price changes both supply and demand. As price drops supply usually drops as it's less profitable to produce, and demand increases as it's now a cheaper alternative to other products. Oil pricing comes to mind, the price dropped like a fucking stone, and supply has dropped, not sure about demand.
Is this bait and/or am I retarded?
Took me a minute to figure it out.
The effect of price just changes the equilibrium point on the CURRENT demand and supply line i.e. it moves along the line.
Price doesn't SHIFT the demand or supply curve in any way. A shift occurs from other factors, such as new competition in the market.
How can we milk the "alt-right" and autistic "national-socialists" like on /pol/? Is there any way to profit off of them?
I'm thinking of making a clickb8 right-wing blog but I figure most of them have an adblocker anyways, I dunno.
Maybe making fake fundraisers for some of their "heroes" like with darren wilson or someone else in the news?
>>1237086
Typically you want to milk people with money.
>>1237089
This is true, and I did think about that. But surely they can use their mom's credit card to buy some autistic /pol/ meme merch, can they not?
>>1237092
They're already buying overpriced chink copies of Nazi gear so that ship has sailed.
I can get a Masters in Mathematical Finance in two years and make an easy starting 60k a year doing something which frankly is largely bullshit, or I can do a PhD in a hard science and hope I get a position paying me something above poverty.
Why is this?
The former doesn't do anything significant, isn't advancing human knowledge and isn't necessary. The later actually does something difficult and has the potential for a much greater impact.
>>1237049
is it because supply & demand, professor?
>>1237049
>Maintaining and advancing the foundations of a nations economy isn't important
Who do you think is paying for the research?
>>1237049
Wrap your mind around this... I'm a CS major and am making 100k out the door as a back end dev.
Similarly, a friend with an accounting degree is making 85k, both of us had 1-2 year internships during school.
You're missing something big in your post.
So I'm trying to get a job that isn't mcdonalds,
without a college degree
is it possible?
Yes. Now go kill yourself for asking such a retarded question.
I did it. I made $100k last year.
Don't ask me what I do.
>>1237047
c-can i ask if it involves knee pads?
ITT: we find the the biggest poorfag on /biz/.
Extra points for debt.
I got 12k in the bank, so it can't be me
I'm a neet, my dad defualted on an 800,000 apartment building in 2008 and has spent the last 8 years paying rent because he can't get approved for mortgage. This will be our final year. I no longer get fasfa at community college because my grades are bad, so I work as a janitor to pay for my community college classes.

Do you have any debt?
Hey /biz/ I am 22 years old and i was thinking after working at Walmart for 2 years investing $40 in stocks in each paycheck I have gained an interest in stocks in general. So i talked to my local Credit Union and they talked to me about investing in mutual funds. So i was thinking of giving it a shot, but I have to ask is it a good idea to do in this economy if so can you tell me some tips if i start investing?
>>1236768
create a virtual portfolio for a year.
treat it as real money.
if one year from now you'r good to know, take the 40dollars you've been putting away each month+interest and start real with already an "acceptable" amount
>>1236776
you only get maybe 40 years to invest before retirement. Dont waste one of them papertrading
>>1236768
mutual funds are a scam, put your money in a low cost index fund. If the guy at the credit union wants to set you up for an mfund I guarantee he's getting a cut for each referral.
Also don't invest $40 a month unless you're using a brokerage-free trader like robin hood.
you have 3000 dollars in capital. no job. what do you do
get a job
>>1236755
spend
