What is a good current account balance?
If you are older than 21 and have less than $5,000 in savings, you should kill yourself and start over. Trust me incarnation is real.

When meta threads start popping up, time to sell
Hi guys. Can you tell me how to sell something in internet without any reputation, because noone trust me and they don"t want to pay first.
Buy trusted accounts. It's how 90% of eBay sellers get started unless you started 5-10 years ago.
I'm finishing a masters in finance and all I want is to stay at home and try to live off of gamedev. I've inherited about 100k recently so money wouldn't be a problem for quite a while but my gf is working her 5 days a week at her definitive job and I don't want to make her afraid that I'll never work or make money.
I feel like I cheated her by telling her (and myself) that I'd work a good job in finance but this field seems too soul-crushing for me. Meanwhile I'm at home learning about code, modeling, texturing, animating, design,...

I'm in a similar position as you are but I'm going to try my hand at entrepreneurship with some friends. All I can say is, follow your heart. I already have a really nice job lined up after I graduate but I'm going to back out of it.
If this is something you really want you should go for it. If it doesn't work out and you have to interview again don't tell them you thought finance was "soul crushing". Just tell them you wanted to pursue another interest first to see where...

If you are good, and can show this through examples of games you've made, then you will be hired.

One thing is always important in life: It's never ever too late.
There is always a possibility to make things great for yourself.
In your case: being an indie gamedev (especially a good one) for some time is not in the least going to hinder you to enter a finance corp later. They look for flexible, intelligent people and as long as you can show what your powers are and have decent arguments about why you did this or that, you're absolutely fine.
And in my eyes, although i cannot speak from...

Im planning on moving to canada from my shithole 3rd world country. I have spent a lot of time and money getting all my credentials verified and applying for visas etc (im not a refugee).
What is happening over there? I heard they recently elected a different type of government and are now worse off because of it. Or is it just due to the oil industry being down that affects them?
Western Provinces are slowing down due to Crude Oil crash, but Unemployment is still surprisingly low. Crude oil crash is also why the CDN dollar is so low. Rest of the country is doing about the same as it was before.
New Government is probably a good thing if you are an immigrant (previous administration was more xenophobic... although no where near as bad as the right wing in the US).
>>1090348
canada has a lot of issues right now but its an okay place to live. just don't expect to ever buy a house.
>>1090376
Why not?
/biz/ I am probably half retarded and I don't know much about math.
Is the economy tanking or is it just hysteria?
Should I go in the woods yet?
>>1090335
jobs are flying away from western countries, immigrants are flying in, and their economies are slowing down accordingly
its not the economy tanking its the new world order taking place
I think that we're on the front end of another recession.
>>1090335
Don't need to enter the woods to find a bear, anon.
Looking to do a b2b email campaign and am trying to think of good ways to get mass local emails.
Does anyone have experience with an online yellow pages scraper (specifically for the Australian version)? What software works well, etc..?
Or any other ways to get lots of local business emails in one big list?
I scraped the inside of your moms pussy with my dick
Just buy a list man, it will cost like $500
I have used an Australian company called Impact Lists, can recommend them
>>1090267
Most scrapers are <$100, seems like a no brainier to me?
is teaching the ultimate cuck job?
-expect being burdened with kids because shortage of teachers
-you will evaluate tests during hours you are not paid to work
-most of that time is wasted, because new information acquired by students is easily forgotten
-expect babysitting kids with behavioral problems who drive you mad whose parents have mcjobs
-spend your own money to buy supplies
-sit on your ass for 4 months with no pay, because pay stops when schools out
It can be nice for people who like it desu.
But you might as well become a NEET if you're going to be teaching in a majority black school. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.
It depends on the level of education, and your goals.
For instance, I could see teaching in grad school to be good and useful, as the students are likely serious and your teaching is going to actually help people perform something beneficial to society.
Undergrad teaching might be more problematic though. Especially at the community college level, where unfortunately a large number of students are just there because high school ended and they haven't figured out what else to do with their lives.
High school and younger is probably the most painful to teach, and potentially the most useless. As far as society is concerned, yeah you're basically a glorified babysitter. Your function is just to keep the kids and teens occupied and out of the way so grown-up society can function. Most of what you're teaching them is irrelevant and won't be useful in their lives.
But it could be a respectable job if you take it as an opportunity to craft the mindset and perspective of your students. For instance, letting them know that the specific factoids they're learning aren't really the point, but rather that they should learn *how to learn*, and how to put their minds towards a single, possibly tedious goal and see it through to the end with integrity and precision.
Any ideas on how to make ~$200 a week online with little or no capital?
I heard dropshipping and flipping social media accounts can work wonders
Anybody on /biz/ have any experience with either of these?
>>1090122
Make an instagram account from 0 and sell t-shirts/amazon aff links.
>>1090129
a black lives matter one would be good
Find an edgy t-shirt and put affiliate link and there u go
Something like "kill whitey #black lives matter". To get followers just follow others and say edgy anti-white memes i guess

Is this like a Ponzi scheme? It seems like these guys need us more than we need them.
I'm a 19 year old college student in texas currently, and I've come up with a really good invention that I'm 100% sure doesn't exist. I don't have a patent or it yet. What can I do to make money from it? how and who do i pitch it to? if I want to start an LLC that produces and sells my invention, what is step one? I'm really desperate for help
>>1089807
File a patent
>>1089813
That's a negative, ghost rider. Possibly.
First OP, tell us what it does. No, don't tell us (or anyone else at this point) how it does that or what process it uses, but we need to know what it does.
Have you already researched similar patents? Only *after* doing that can you say that you're "90% sure it doesn't exist" because it's always possible that your thing is already patented, just using different words in the title and description.

>That's a negative, ghost rider. Possibly.
The reason "just getting a patent" is a negative is because patents are fucking expensive for anyone who isn't already raking in hundreds of thousands of dollars. Getting a patent done properly, that is, with a lawyer and (probably) an engineer to ensure that the drawings, specifications, and explanations all work is going to run somewhere between $15,000 to $35,000+.
Patents are typically only recommended if they...

Should I be mad at myself for even thinking of switching from a mechanical engineering major to a math major?
I've decided that I want to work in the finance field in the future, and have heard that math majors are highly prized in that field. However, whenever I look at the average salaries of degrees, engineering majors are at the top of the list and math majors seem to often not even make the cut.
Should I forget about ever switching to mathematics? I'm a first year student, so it's not like I've gone too far.
>>1089793
If you don't like engineering, you'll be worse off as an engineer making money than as a mathematician who isn't. Even if you do like engineering, the reality of spending every day taking the same tired solutions, tweaking them, and reporting them so that someone else can sell the final product and get rich from it, can really get to you.
Just find that magical intersection of things you really enjoy doing and things that make a living wage, and you're golden.

Do applied math with an emphasis in economics.
Ez pz but looks good

>math majors are highly prized in that field
this is just a meme, its really fucking hard to get a real finance job as a math major, and quant positions only want experienced phds
