Is the canadian economy crumbling? Is it time to sell all my shares because the end is nigh?
yes sell everything and go underground, End times are coming
Why sell now? Worst timing ever. Now is the time to buy or hold.
A lot of events around the world happening
Wait for China, oil in Saudi and OPEC and the tech sector to make moves
When one of those dominoes fall it'll affect canada

So I've decided to go for the "buy a house and rent out rooms to pay your mortgage off early" meme. But I have a few questions:
1) Do/ should I have a legal contract like when you sign a lease for an apartment? complex? Should I hire a lawyer to write it? How much would they charge?
2) What legal loopholes can I use to circumvent EOH laws and not rent to ghetto nignogs/ other undesirable tenants who happen to be minorities?
3) Have any of you actually done this? What was your experience and do you have any advice?

>1) Do/ should I have a legal contract like when you sign a lease for an apartment? complex? Should I hire a lawyer to write it? How much would they charge?
If you even have to ask whether there should be a lease or contract when you're renting a room in your house you are in no way prepared to do so.

Fair housing laws don't apply as long as you live there. You can straight up say "I don't rent to niggers" and it's completely legal as long as you live on the property.

I never had a problem in California renting, like being the renter, everyone was professional
in Canada, complete opposite had to take this schmuck to court and won and he was penalized and yada yada he's a theater production flaky homo who was the most unprofessional person I've dealt with in my entire life
so that being said
as a landlord you're going to have to read the landlord tenant agreement w/e state or country you are in, read it over at least twice minimum

Do you think 3D printers will become popular? I know they're in the infant stages but these things have massive potential. If done correctly this could replace common household items.
>>1222852
Currently I do not.Maybe in ten years

Remember when 3D guns were a controversy despite being basically ineffective? Those were the days. Fun times.
A small, sleek and portable kitchen appliance with easy pre-set buttons that'd heat up your Mexican tortilla chips to that classic restaurant-style warmth, that could easily be tucked away in a cabinet.
The device would be a huge hit at parties, get-togethers, etc. but also for dinners, or something to better your midnight snack. This could spark a dinner trend of having the tortilla chips with your dinner meal always be expectedly warm, too. Middle America is going to love this.
Both young and old alike would enjoy this product:
>young guys wanting to have heated chips available for their friends as they play video games
>old people not wanting to mess with any of the trial-and-error routine of using other appliances.
>People camping outside that'd want a hot & easy snack
>Parents buying it because their children demanded it
>Couples buying it for their partner as something cute and fun
>A company buying it for their lunch room
Tortilla chips are bought practically bi-weekly in American homes, by all demographics for all types of social situations. The customer base is astronomical - build and market it, and they will come.
inb4:
>muh ovens
>muh toaster ovens
>muh microwaves
Nobody wants to heat up the house over just chips with an oven, and for the microwave or a toaster oven...All microwaves heat up differently, and nobody knows how long they'd need to be put in for; it's trial-and-error every time. Similar with the toaster oven. This isn't even mentioning the mess that comes along with that whole process. Indeed, this is why practically nobody does that.
A circular base with an upright tube attached on top would give it the small & compact design. The chips would be heated up from either the bottom base, or throughout the tube. Once done, the user would pour them out from the top of the tube. For $19.99, what I'm imagining doesn't exist.
you can also put your dick in it
>>1223184
Let this meme die.
>>1222844
>For $19.99
for 19.99, the product has to cost 9.99 wholesale, which means it should cost $5 landed in the USA. You'd have to get it manufactured in asia. to get it for $5, you'll need a production run of 10,000's.
i've seen this bullshit almost everyday for weeks.
this is possible, just get a prototype and kickstarter it. i don't eat tortilla chips, so i don't understand why you'd want them heated unless they were nachos, which you couldn't do in a tube.
Last thread was interesting
What do you think of women in the work force?
We've discussed this to death.
Men > Women
/thread
I don't work with any women. All male work force. Men can be just as big of whiney bitches as women.
My company is 98% women, a day doesn't go by without someone crying. Even the managers fuck off to the toilets to cry.

The $2 bill has by far the best picture on the back of the bill. Why isn't the portrait on one of the main bills?
Is it specifically because it is seldom used that they put such an intricate drawing on it?
>>1222778
idk, OP. I was always partial to the $2 bill myself. I wish there were more in circulation. I work at a bank and see them a lot though no one ever wants them back so they sit in a drawer for months until they get sent back to the federal reserve.
I also really like coins and think the golden dollars should replace the paper ones but most people seem to hate them for some reason.
$1 and $5 coins would be sweet imo.
>>1222901
We do have $1 Sacajawea coins tho m9
>>1222901
$1 coins are stupid as fuck. How am I supposed to stick those in a strippers g-string?
Hi guys.
I'm a high school senior who has taken the most challenging accounting courses that my school has to offer and have excelled in each. Since the beginning of this school year, I have been set on studying accounting in college. I recently have been reading more and have had a spark of interest for majoring in finance instead. A finance major opens up many more doors, has more opportunity for advancement, and let's face it, they make more. I have been wondering about this choice and would like /biz/'s advice. Also I apologize in advance as I'm...

Depends on your goals. I would suggest to double major, study hard, and start a business.
Anything else and you won't make it.
>>1222684
An early goal as of now would to become a CFA. Double majoring in accounting/finance seems like a very viable option.
>>1222686

Someone hasn't passed lvl1

The correct answer is you put don't put money in either of those shitty products retard.

YES. Oil is due for a nice big shit
Can I start a "business" and get a credit card reader and charge myself to my card thousands of dollars for services that I do (like landscaping, cleaning my house, pressure washing my driveway, etc), then pay the bill with my own money over and over again to rack up cash back and flyer miles?
>>1222574
No, because credit card companies charge you a 2-3% fee on each transaction.
Tax.
>>1222574
You probably could but you'd have to pay tax on the profit, I'm pretty sure you'd lose at least 15% of the money, so unless you find a credit card that gives you back 16% of what you spend, good luck turning a profit
why was pure communism/socialism always a failure when implemented?
can someone explain it to a layman?
Hard work and growth are purely the result of (a) neccesity and (b) man's desire to be better than the man next to him.
You eliminate these two things and everyone stops giving a fuck. Then society collapses.
someone always has to be "in charge". that person is also in charge of all the money. it inevitably turns into a goddamn monarchy like Cuba or a totalitarian nightmare like China. Greed consumes all and communism is great on paper but never works in practice because of human nature.
Socialism is the transition to communism and the means of production are controlled by society(read: the state) while personal ownership of some property is still allowed.
Communism is wherein the people directly control the means of production and there is no private property, social classes, or currency.
These are actually pretty big differences, amigo.
What does /biz/ think about this in general?
I have no ideas right now, but does anyone have anything to share in terms of stories, successes/failures, things to look out for/pay attention to?
Also looking for resources such as books to read in my free time. My parents have a business, so not everything is foreign to me, but I would appreciate learning more organizational/corporate kind of stuff because my parents work in blue collar as opposed to white collar.
I am majoring in Economics, btw.
As far as capital, I would be able to bring in 5K maybe,...

Anyone here take nootropics?

Yes.
Modafinl
Its amazing.
>>1222598
What exactly does it do and how do you get it?
Has anyone made the switch from adderall to modafinl? How did it compare?
I'm prescribed 30 mg xr adderal but i'm curious how modafinil compares?
Are any of the supposed survey sites that pay you for fulling out surveys legit or all scams?
Can anyone with experience drop some knowledge about this, like which ones, if any , are legit? thanks.
>>1222521
There are real ones, but survey websites are a waste of time. Takes so fucking long to make any money.
>>1222521
They don't all pay out. The legit ones don't pay you for every survey either, and it takes long to get any money.

You'd be better off spending that time learning a skill or working
Anyone play? Anyone pro or semi-pro? Hoping the US can play with the rotw soon, plenty of loose money there.
Snape?
>>1222520
try playing live instead
online is too shady nowadays. too many bots with too many sites allowing bots to increase traffic, too many people colluding or buying timeshares of accounts. GTO computation on the spot which isn't allowed on any site. yadda yadda segregated liquidity pools and withdrawal fees and whatnot
just better to play live
>>1222520
yeah just go to your local casino with a friend and play as a team and clean up
