Is studying Actuarial Science a good choice?
I'm 24 and I don't like job perspectives for my major, so I'm considering studying another thing while I work part-time in order to afford it (I live in Europe).

You need to he a little bit of an autist. But yeah they generally make pretty good monies, in freedumland anyway

>You need to he a little bit of an autist
Why do you say so?
>>1111736
probably cause it involves them maths.
On the contrary, robots can help build the perfect NEET lifestyle for all.

you're naive. people who serve no use will be killed or starve to death. the future isn't a utopia with robot butlers. the best you can hope for is probably to live in zuckercucks VR matrix. your waifu won't be there either because she isn't SJW approved
>>1111462
Do you see a problem with any of that?
>>1111470
yes. the Facebook matrix will be extremely cucked. instead I'll live off the grid in a cyberpunk dystopia like one of my Japanese animes.
I'm looking to start my own business but not sure in which area, I am open to most.
I was thinking of going through lists of ideas and searching for similar businesses in my area to see the level of competition.
I also wondered whether just setting up a few different ventures on a very small scale to start with then ditching the rest and running with 1 should it start to pick up.
Is this sensible or wasting time? Should I just pick one and gamble? Any advice appreciated!
Not looking to be a millionaire, just work hard for myself and have a comfortable income eventually.

What are you good at, dude?
That's part of the problem. I don't know entirely, I'm not a computer whizz. I can write well but have done a variety of jobs.
You think having a genuine interest/skill is most important factor?
>>1110541
It's THE most important factor. If you aren't skilled or passionate about something, don't start a business around it. Get some experience and improve your work ethic, because without either of those your company with have a much higher likelihood of failing.
Ohhhhhhhhhh what time it is you ask?
The time to make some fucking money (if you followed my fucking advice:
>>1096360
How much money have you lost since I told you to buy Bitcoin and hold, and to buy Maid and start shorting some % as it keeps growing towards a potential ATH+ soon?
You fucking cucks will never learn. 1BTC a day crew while you nocoiners and ETH bagholders rot checking theee fuuuuck in.
Check the fucking dates and prices on this one.
You are lossing on a fucking ridiculous profit already, LOL.
>>1109003
You do realise MAID rise is connected to ETH rise because there is talk of ETH using MAID instead of IPFS for decentralised storage.
>not holding ETH
Remain poor
why invest in ETH
Dont.
Invest in Lisk. Thank me later.
>>1107315
It will form the basis of the future internet of things.
The dapps created on ethereum will bring fortune and great joy to many.
>>1107320
Lisk is an ethereum rip off. Won't go anywhere because what makes ethereum special is the carefylly cultivated connections in banking, crypto and mainstream IT
Lisk has none of that, just a couple of spammy threads on bitcointalk
Is six sigma actually useful or is it just junk science? I'm reading a book on it right now, but remain unconvinced, sounds like a lot of proceduralisation and over complication of relatively simple tasks. GE uses it though, so do a lot of other big companies like Chevron and HP, just wondering if anyone has had a positive/negative experience with it?
Does anyone even know what the fuck I'm talking about?
>>1107017
its a corporate meme like SAP, its not a genius system but it has fine fundamentals for the general case, much like SAP it does overcomplicate things but thats going to be what happens whenever you try to standardize everything between so many different areas

It's a method to minimize the numbers of defected products.
If your company works on a field where it is necessary use it. If it's cheaper to make some waste goods, you can fuck yourself with it.

Living on the east coast of the US, I'm 25 with a net worth of $1.5k. I have completed 75% of an associate degree in computer network engineering from a local community college.
I have taken the past two years off because my heart just wasn't in it anymore. I would still like to work with computers, but I don't know if I can manage the school work. I was thinking of learning a skill.
Should I even bother finishing the AA degree? Most job requirements include BA, so if I'm not going to continue it is it just a waste?
>>1111425
AA are piss easy once you do the college general ed. Its literally just 4-5 courses in the field, and boom you got your fucking AA.
I mean then again, most employer's wouldn't wipe their ass with an AA.
Why not just go for the BA? You are only 25.
>>1111440
Don't I have to finish the AA? Or can I go right into a BA at another school?
>>1111444
as long as you have your transcript of all the coursework you've done, you can continue your schooling elsewhere.
But yes, you will have to do the AA coursework in order to start your BA.
You are not obligated to get an AA diploma, but you do have to complete those courses in order to take core classes towards the BA.
My website typically converts at 3~4%
To reach my sales goal of $4k/Month I need to be getting 2,500 unique visitors per day.
I currently get about 60 unique visitors per day.
What are some ways I can reach my goal of 2,500 quicker and can anyone give me a ballpark figure of how many months it will take to reach this goal?

What website is it? What are you doing for seo apart from nothing.?
>>1111383
I'm doing Adwords/YouTube for seo
Here's my site
Bravobeats.com

What sort of things are you selling?
Why do people say van dwelling is more expensive than renting / buying an apartment / house?
cos it costs you your dignity
>>1112155
I honestly would see it as a badge of pride.
I was raised in a poor setting, so It won't really change anything. I actually find it strangely comfy to have low-tier living conditions.
>>1112157
Same.
What worries me is heating and the low sex appeal. I'm not very much into hippie girls, yet I myself am quite the hippie. Such ambivalence, indeed.
>imported a product from china sold under 10k worth
>turns out it has a patent on it
>patent holder sends me a take down notification on amazon
>month later serves me with a law suit
>can settle for 1k and promise not to sell again
I dont have 1k guys....what the fuck do I do
what
>>1111989
im being sued for shit I sold on amazon that had a patent on it
>>1111990
basically everything is fucking patented, why does that mean you can't sell it? you're not trying to sell the rights to it, you're selling an actual fucking object.
What is a good site where I can quickly and easily learn the terminology used in finance and trading? I want something that isn't too in-depth. Just a quick explanation so that I can sound like I know what I'm talking about.
green arrow point up good
red arrow point down bad
>>1111413
>what is Investopedia
Hands down the easiest encyclopedia of everything commerce
>>1111427
Anything where I can learn the very basics and terminology within an hour or two, like short tutorial videos that are decent?
Also, what would be the effects on the US? Since external debt is so high, would they just ask for a payment to offset their economy falling or does it not work like that?
>>1111659
The debt they hold is likely in treasury bonds.
You can't just demand it whenever you please.
>>1111729
Ok, but what is the main reason for China indicies falling??

Hi /diy/ I know that goal planning is important, so I am wondering if you can help me.
Am currently a neet
Being kicked out if I don't have a job by May.
I want to move to my own place by August
I wanna rent a room in a house or a one bedroom, so my rent will be anywhere from $700-1300
I would also like to go to school partime, I do that now
Can you help me break this down into chunks so I can achieve this?
>>1110383
Most important thing is to get yourself a one day a week job right now.
Look at truck stops, convenience stores, and other places where people who have common sense and choices run away from screaming.
They'll be glad to hire you and then work you one day a week or whatever.
>getting your own place while going to school part time
Your best bet is a school dorm or paying your parents/whoever is sponsoring you to live where you already live for a fee.
Basically,...

I want to purchase my first home. Any tips?
you should see the house in person before you buy it
>>1110345
Make sure the house isn't on fire before you decide to buy.
Enter and exit through the door, it makes you look more professional
