I'm a fool. I left a crazy opportunity, I was a host/busser at a very popular place and a few months later became GM. Was naive and took 18/hr "training" wage and burned myself out only to resign a week or so after negotiating my salary (48k+ bonus up to 60k). Took a gig in construction and was getting 14/hr. Now I'm a line cook getting 12/hr. It's ok but I'm going to be fired, surprised I didn't get the axe today. Plus it's a commute and ffs I was such a better manager then some of these people and the FOH staff of course takes in cash...

Peer-2-Peer Lending?
Yea or Nay?
Why or why not?
Nay, on major economic downturns, do you think borrowers will pay back their debts? You will be seeing defaults en masse.

Do you want to invest or do you want to trade? Lots of people say they want to learn investing when really they want to trade stocks.

Well buying and holding stocks is investment. It's a simple way the beginning investor can increase there holdings.
Weird question, I'm very new.
How did Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg stay as the CEO's of their companies without being booted out or people turning on them?
How did they trademark their brand early on and ensure no one stole it?
How do you ensure from the beginning that right until the end you'll be at the top making all the decisions? Anyone have any experience?

Own the majority of shares, I guess.
>>1094165
nope, they just need to own sufficient shares with additional voting rights - they don't need to maintain 51% of actual equity in the companies to maintain complete control

Is a career in politics a good idea, /biz/?
I live in a scandinavian country, I'm a fairly good speaker and I have some ins into a big political party, but I don't know if the rewards are worth it. Or if there even are rewards, aside from the occasional bribe.

Amazon reselling isn't the way to go.
Buy handmade looking shit and sell it on Etsy.
>>1092194
amazon has an ads feature where you can have your products shown to people you think might be interested in it through keywords.
>>1092194
Reselling on amazon is a joke at any point in the spectrum.
What are the best programming languages/skills to learn for getting a nice job and what are the best ways to learn them on your own?
I've picked up SQL and VBA from doing weiner shit on Access and Excel and it's just now occurring to me that I could learn real languages and go out and make twice as much. How do I do that?
Learn web programming. Start with the basics, HTML, CSS, and JS. Entry level web dev is ~$90K.

That's not even the median salary for software engineers.

If they start a case, remain calm and state your side of the case. You will absolutely have to state that the buyer did not keep *an open line of communication*, let alone give you the opportunity to make amends. eBay seller protection does exist, but it only works for the level-headed sellers who know how to communicate their case effectively.
What were you selling, by the way? Counterfeits are a huge problem in e-commerce in general. It is, after all, your responsibility to know and disclose the authenticity...

Is there some sort of comprehensive guide to selling on Ebay for a complete newbie? I'm cleaning out my childhood bedroom before I move off to start my first post-college big boy job and I reckon that I've got a few thousand dollars worth of video games alone that I could easily get rid of. Any tips?
Invest in the stock market, they said

Shut up, child. You picked Vanguard because -- for at least a small moment -- you understood that your best results would come from diversified low-cost investing over a multi-decade timeframe, providing you with the best opportunity to grow your wealth over a lifetime.
No one wants to hear you bitch about the short-term performance of your retirement portfolio. Stop being an attention-whore, acknowledge that short-term fluctuations are meaningless to long-term returns, and stay the course.
Or bail out...

How long did the investigation take?
Hi, I think about starting my own software business. Is it better to start with a service company, like web dev or sell your own product?
What kind of software?
>>1093753
What sort of business?
I can imagine making stuff in your bedroom. The beautiful thing about software is that it's low capital at first. Easier for a startup, right?
Having said that, I don't really know shit about that kinda stuff. Anyone been involved with software startups?
Why do nobody want to skype with me? In my business, its important. But these under 30s, its like they avoid it at all costs. Is it me, or is it just the autist of these millennials?
Because it's weird as fuck.
Why can't you just call?
>>1092998
Even though Gen y and z use Skype and TeamSpeak more than any other generation.
For instance your granddaughter might use Skype to fall asleep with her boytoy/armcandy.
Get with the times grandpa.
what do you faggots think about Bain?
is it that good?
I think it would be a good investment 4 u
Congratulations, you got yourself returns. What's the next step in your master plan?
