hey you should definitely open a bank account and sit on that money for a little bit and some adequate research before investing it and most importantly don't follow almost anything posted by /biz/
or you could just say fuck it and buy DWTI after the inevitable sucker rally :^)
100% S&P 500.

are you a goddamn lunatic it's not going to 10. just wait until it hits 25 and then buy. you'll get a near guaranteed 400% return if you're willing to wait a couple years
I have a job interview coming up and they will be giving me the Wonderlic anyone have any experiences taking it? Should I study?
what the fuck is this
>>1054015
wonder lick you say?
It's for an investment analyst position. I guess it's their effort in being non biased in their recruiting. According to the wonderlic website a 27 is the average score for this type of position.
Anyone have experience with housing DUI drug court/independent living or other housing related people? My mother has a large house and wants to house them with people like these with me staying there and keeping watch since im a neet. Is it all its cracked up to be? What kind of an experience do i have forward to look to?
>>1053909
>is it all its cracked up to be?
well since it sounds like a nightmare, I suppose it is
>>1053965
Why is it?
Your gonna have to put up with junkies and just general bad cunts, which in itself is bad enough unless you know how to talk to them or they're just chill cause they're trying to go straight. Plus you might walk into someone shooting up, which some might find traumatic maybe. Other than that it you make them stay on there area of the house and keep your distance I don't see an issue. Except for maybe shit being stolen.
Just filled up my truck. $1.03 a gallon. Is this real life /biz/?

Yesterday i lost 11 000 eur, post your biggest losses, help me feel little less miserable

Literally why not just hold?
>>1053105
I bought 50 UVXY at $54.
Hold me?
>>1053105
It's not a loss until you close the position. Why the fuck would you close a position with that much unrealised loss?

Hey dudes, i'm a fresh Indian graduate in management studies. Planning to pursue an MBA next. Now what i can't decide is whether to do it from my home country (there are a lot of universities with good placement options here) or whether i should go abroad?

>you forgot about FNMA and didn't set a price alert for $1/sh
>it hit $1/sh just a couple days ago

You know another crash is coming right?
>>1054993
it is only a matter of time
>>1054974
The bottom is zero... Pre 9/11 FNMA was a $90 stock. I believe it will hit $00.09 before it hits $90 again.
Hello, biz my stock portfolio is god awful. let's just put it out there I tried my luck with penny stocks and the like and I'm in the red $3300 dollars I'm really new to the stock market. I was prepared to lose what i invested it was some savings that i figured I'd try my hand in multiplying with so I'm not broke or anything. My total account value is $2700 and I have a little over $800 to spend that's currently in my account. Any ideas on how to make this money grow really well over the next.. I don't know.. 5 years? I'm just looking...

More penny stocks
>>1054768
I'm not sure I want to make that mistake again. I will say at one point it did make me an extra $900 over night and I just held on to it like an idiot.

Hold your horses: let the stocks sit
Only the truly skilled, and truly lucky, can consistently predict the rise and fall of stock markets.
Right now, shorting the SP or Nasdaq would be a good idea, but since you are already invested and at a loss, just try to wait it out.
Buy and hold, see what happens, maybe you will get that lucky 10.000% increase on your penny stock
Or maybe not. The stock market is half gambling after all.
Morning /biz

Go to the horses mouth and rest in certainty

tried that gave me two different set of information
Are you long or short?
Personally i am short, because of china (collapse there would further decrease demand), iran increasing supply and the US storaging oil (that for some readon shot the oil upwards).
Currently 15% of portfolio in an bearish etf on oil
Short until close today. I stand to make or lose €20 so you probably can't relate
>shorting oil
Oy vey
>>1054704
Well, bearish etf and shorting isnt quite the same thing.
Why the fuck is it illegal to count cards? How is it wrong to apply a logical mathematical strategy to a game of chance that has skill applied to it? I mean out of all those casino games the card ones are all skill based the only games that are completely up to chance are dices and roulette. How is it not illegal for the dealer to never go first or have the house manipulate the odds?
We're slaves. Sheep and slaves. They gave the Indians a cut on our slavery for whatever fucking reason with gambling but pretty much everything runs like this.
>>1054679
yep. luckily for you the overwhelming majority of people are dumb as fucking shit.
so go do some business and take some peoples money.
It's not illegal (you can't get arrested or charged with anything) but they reserve the right to kick you out of the casino, it is their casino after all.
Take solace in the fact that unless you plan on sitting at a table for 10 hours with hundreds of thousands of dollars to start, counting cards will not be profitable enough to be worthwhile.
>>1054679
>Why the fuck is it illegal to count cards?
Are you literally retarded?
It's only illegal if you use paper or a counting device. If your caught or suspected to be counting with only your mental faculties, the casino reserves the right to refuse your business, just like any privately owned establishment.
This has nothing to do with /biz/
Go fuck yourself

Anyone else having a brutal morning?
I had to run to the bus stop.
Come to find out, I was looking at the wrong stop, and made it there two minutes early.
I really could have just walked.
This is the straw that broke the camel's back.
>>1054659
Doing great thanks :^)
>>1054659
Im with you OP. My biggest loss so far today, a total of 40% down on a pick simce yesterday. So yeah
I know you are all /biz/y people and I shouldn't bother you with my pleb concerns as a mere employee, but I need your advice /biz/.
I'm new to London and looking for a job. Found a few cool ones but noticed it's a practice to not go past the first interview unless you say how much money you want.
How do you negotiate that so that I can later pic related? Is there a way of being flexible without sounding desperate? Is there a way to at least find out if you priced yourself out so you can go lower next time?
Appreciate any tips. Some details...

Usually you wait until the employer brings it up, and based on your experience in that field you add a couple dollars. If you don't have a lot of experience you should say the average entry level rate.
>>1054474
I have five years of spot on experience and 6-9 in related jobs, but the problem is that I don't know what the baseline is at all for senior jobs on or near London.
For example are London Glassdoor salaries relevant for somewhere like Reading, Farnborough or Bracknell?
Get job stay a bit then go somewhere else for more money
Is a business/economics degree really useless?
>>1054433
No degree is inherently useless. If you work hard it's possible to make a career from any degree. The key is being astute enough to know which skills you should be learning in your spare time.
I have my degree in Economics (from a low tier university and only finished with 2:2) and while doing it I learnt Excel, SQL and Python along with it. Got a job two months before graduating earning £22,000 a year. Been there 2 years and I'm now earning £26,000 with a company car (Audi TT). I'm only 23...

what's that after tax.. you renting or got a mortgage
>>1054447
>£22,000
not op, but 22k pre tax is 18k after and 26k pre tax is 20k after. Because the car is taxed as well (benefits in kind) the actual net is a bit lower. The lease on the car is probably about 2-2.5k extra per year worth of value.
