I need to take home $90K/year (post tax) in order to meet my life goals. What is this pre tax and what jobs out there should I study for? I assume meeting this goal would be easy if I married somebody but I highly doubt I will ever find a financially responsible woman with the same goals and hobbies as me. I live in Washington state.

That's a lot of money, take home. What kind of life style do you really need?
That being said, doctors and dentists get paid very well. Go do that.

What a retarded graph

I don't think it works like that
Good evening (Dutchfag here), Gentlemen.
I've been lurking and lurking, rarely replying on anything posted here - mostly because its all quite weak minded stuff (exceptions excluded, there are some true bro's here who gove solid advice every now and then).
But, since all this 'Eth' stuff, there is only one thing I can see as a reason for all the 'hype' about this coin/platform.
I say 'hype', because as a (big) data analyst/reputation manager (involves loads of measuring and research - if done well), there is no...

2/2
1) In order to get Eth, you need BTC.
As an 'outsider', I look at this as a classic, yet very basic, marketing-tactic for BTC. I've seen that Eth will be able to get by other payment forms in the future, but when will this be? If anyone could clear that up, it might help to better understand Eth's possibilities and eliminate the idea that it's been called to live to pump up BTC.
2) Eth is a complete mystery (to newbies).
I still can't wrap my head around...

>If you understand the above, do you agree that Eth is simply made to pump up BTC or not?
no, because eth is a competitor with btc. eth isn't pumping up btc it's taking from btc capital.
anyway, more exchanges are adding eth so you don't even need btc to get it anymore
>>1139217
Thanks for replying!
Sounds interesting, any idea where I can purchase Eth with lets say Euro's?
And what do you think about the fact that it's still quite vague what Eth actually is?
What do asians mostly work in?

Medicine? Technology? Idk, just guessing.

They all just buy Eth.

BI shills on /biz/ now huh? Go fucking figure.
Sounds good, a bachelor alone is reason to want to kill myself, hopefully it matches up with university MBAs (jk it won't)
redpill me on ethereum.
i used to come every now and then to /biz/ and i saw normal stuff, now it's like the mods stickied 4 threads about ehtereum with shills and haters making threads about it every minute.
i haven't heard about it prior to finding out about it on /biz/. i looked into it and it seems pretty legit altough it looks like many people can and will scam you.
so if anyone cares to explain, how do you buy ethereum and how well do you think it will. to me it seems volatile, but i think it will continue rising.
>>1139071
>Wtf is this ethereum? How do I buy it? I've never heard of it before besides on /biz/. I know nothing about ethereum. I know nothing about cryptos.
>but i think it will continue rising.
lel
buy it on kraken, you can do it via bank transfer, it's legit.
will it go up? who knows, it just peaked for the third time, this time at $13/ETH, but its facing resistance and falling slightly. ETH has no realistic large-scale purpose, its just another memecoin/niche tech and the price is pumped by speculators. it can collapse any moment when the hysteria dies. but this also means the price can explode if theres more hysteria/propoganda
>>1139091
based on the graph m8, on the mass shilling that's happening all over the internet i have made that asumption . i did not claim to know much about it, thats why asked
how much money would make you quit your job /biz/? a million dollars? ten million? what will you do after you dont have to worry about money?

million dollars is nothing in terms of retirement money.
can I predict the stocks with fractals.
>>1138998
yes. also with a crystal ball, tea leafs, and pidgeon shit. all work about equally well.

but those aren't math.
>>1138998
yes you can use the fibonacci fractal to calculate the stocks
Explain please.

Same exact reason Bitshares is no. 2 on Polo. Who the fuck gave a shit about BTS until MS certified it for Azure?
Might as well hop on some literal who with some sort of infrastructure because MS will one day approve it.
THE PUMP IS COMING THE PUMP IS COMING
Dump is coming.
More likely a dump than a pump I think
Just re-mortgaged my family's house and will be putting that & my pension pot into ETH
GET HYPE.
Was looking up investments the other day and came across these and was just wondering what sort of money could you make on these or well I should say what sort of % return rate could you expect to see.
ALso whats the min time you should use these ones for ?
Im 27 and I was thinking of getting 2 or maybe 3 different ones.
One of them to cash out hopefully by the time im 30 so I can buy a house and the other one to cash out when im like 60.
I have only really started looking up little bits the other week about stocks and investments so Im still learning.

another thing is this the right site to buy them off

Wtf are these things?
1.35% returns, below infation rate for pretty much every year over the last 30 except 2015. (pic related)
You're literally relying on the "prizes" to make any kind of ROI.
Might as well "invest" in Euromillion tickets.
Pro-tip: The word premium is used to market subpar products, regardless of product type.

Is Finance basically a scam?
What's the point of Hedge Funds, Private Equity, etc where no one really knows what they're doing and generally perform below or at best at how much you'd make just dollar cost averaging into the s&p?
What is really even the point of majoring or studying Finance then?
>>1138799
Finance is just the means by which we try to allocate capital efficiently. It underpins essentially all human endeavors, which is why for example congress has so much power in the US.

>Finance is just the means by which we try to allocate capital efficiently.
Wouldn't that be economics rather than Finance?
Overall the Finance industry seems like one big scam. Giving your money to a bunch of retards who don't know more than you but can draw fancy graphs and pretend to know a lot in order to pay abysmal fees seems retarded.
Why do people fall for this?
finance is subset of economics.
2 main fields: asset pricing and corporate finance.
finance people try to answer questions like 'how much interest should I charge you for a loan of size X?'
It's not trivial brah.
Hi /biz/
I'll make it quick, I got mild autism and I live in a truck camper to save money I want to do pic related but with me buying a house and building these kits I saw on alibaba for 7500. I've been very frugal to set on this venture. But every real estate agent tries to get me to buy a house that doesn't allow it. What are some filters I can use to bypass the deed restricted Cucks so I can make a cash flow property out of my house. I work as a maintenance man so I think it's kinda smart. I don't get how I buy property but some 70 year old...

Plz respond
I don't know the answer, but /biz/ is a slow board, so don't worry if nobody answers immediately. I'm interested in the same idea, so I will be checking on this thread in the morning.
I'm sure you guys get this question all the time, and I'm sorry, but I was wondering how to get into making money off stocks. I have absolutely zero knowledge on the topic. Where would you suggest I start reading?
Hi, I rarely post but I will help you. Don't try to make money off of stocks. Do not try. The gist is that no one can predict shit. The best strategy is to invest in index funds (I.e. a bit in everything) but I haven't looked at those closely.
Rule one of the investing industry is to use someone else's money. Always remember this.
>>1138632
Step1: Completely ignore this guy
Step 2: spend 50% of your investment budget on a number of energy stocks with better than industry average debt to equity ratio (D/E) now
Step 3: spend the next 30% in 3 installments over the next 3 months, buying the same stocks in equal 10% amounts. This will protect you from a sudden downswing
Step 4: keep the last 20% in cash and be ready to use it if you see an incredibly undervalued deal that you must act on fast, so as not to be foiled by clearing periods...

Why don't students just not pay their loans back?
If every student did this what would happen?
They'd all get jailed.
If you fail to pay debts you've often signed a contract saying the bank can take assets of equal value of yours and sell them to pay off the debt.

Are debtors jails even a thing anymore?
