I'm going to be operating Airbnbs in downtown Vancouver. I have a few questions for some experienced hosts who take Airbnb seriously and use it as a significant source of income.
1 - Do you meet your guests or let make them pick up keys at key holding services?
2 - How do you deal with neighbors/security/property mangers, and how do you make your airbnb as discrete as possible?
3 - Do you offer your guests parking? New strange cars in the apartments parkade every couple days seems like a dead giveaway for those investigating possible Airbnbs in...

Man you're not gonna get shit from here. Don't worry about tiers and shit, first off what do you like to do? Haha now fuck that shit, and go into finance, economics or commerce. Get your stock broker equivalent license or whatever is in your country, work hard, maybe a masters, MBA, or a CFA. Learn the ropes
>>1361517
I'm looking for something "SURE", that's what GOD TIERS's meant to mean. Good income, good effort, low risk.
"Learn the ropes" made me giggle.
I've dual-citizenship (Italy/US), but I'm still a poor-fag and I can't actually get a GOD TIER degree in, let's say, Massachussets.

I have a crappy night shift part-time job.
I am trying to find full-time work.
When I find a day job, do I need to tell them that I'm going to keep working nights? Do I need to tell the night job that I found a day job? I plan on keeping the night job considering the manageable hours and the useful pay at this point.
>>1361394
bumping op I also need help with this
Nigga, it would help you in the long run that both jobs are aware of the other so that you can have a legit reason to request specific hours. On the other hand sometimes you get petty faggots for management who shit their panties at the thought of needing to consider your needs as a person into their business plan.
>>1361394
how the fuck are you gonna work all day and all night. i think you forgot about sleep buddy boi
The J.M. Smucker Company (NYSE: SJM), the people who make shit like Jif and Uncrustables, is up 497% in 15 years.
General Mills, Inc. (NYSE: GIS) is up 229% in 15 years.
Waste Management, Inc. (NYSE: WM) is up 179% since its IPO 13.5 years ago.
What gives?
I vaguely understand Waste Management. There will always be garbage and people will always hate seeing it, so there needs to be a way to get rid of it. Waste Management does that, but it also researches smart management options, which is becoming more and more desired these days. They also have multiple municipal contracts, which helps boost their business and shove out competitors.

zero/negative interest rates help the stock prices of companies that have stable earnings (like any consumer staple) and pay a dividend.

What can /biz/ do if the stock market crashes. Go short and long on what?
ITT: /biz/ stock market crash advice
you need to be positioned BEFORE the crash if going short. it's giving me an ulcer right now trying to short the ES. i'll probably take a short around 2120. and for sure at 2130. i just don't know how much the markets will react to fed rate decisions. for all i know, we'll blow through last year's SPX high.

Depends why it crashes.
If t's just stock centric. The Fed are going save it. Just BTFD.
If it's the beginning of systemic credit crunch. (i.e. financial institutions are going bankrupt). Sell everything ASAP. The USD will pump. The Fed will announce QE4 (you should buy gold before this). Buy back all your stocks at a lower price.
easier said than done :)
Do any of you know how can I get some money in exchange of some confidential info about the new Jeep MP model? I have some drawings and quality issues about the new model that will launch next year
>>1361224
I don't think it's a secret that Jeep puts out lemons, I'm not memeing, the CSR and professional reviews have been absolute shit tier for over a decade.
>>1361224
Shit, that's an interesting question.
I guess shop around to some hedge funds that make big automotive plays? Who are the top 10 shareholders of Jeep?
Alternatively you can personally buy out of the money call/put options expiring after the earnings call where it'll get announced. Megabux, but earns you a massive red flag from the SEC.
Remember, it's only insider trading if you work for the company.

If it would cost the government less to build housing for the homeless instead of just letting them live on the streets (even when you account the homeless migrating), should it be done?

Homelessness in the US is not caused by lack of housing, anon.

Maybe "build" wasn't the best word. What I meant was "provide". That can include purchasing and repurposing existing housing.
A lot of people are very optimistic about India's prospects for the future - but there seem to be some very significant problems which will not be easy to address.
India's GDP per capita is only around $1,800. The average household income is only about $8,600. GDP growth is already below 10%, and seems to be slowing even further. 750m of India's 1.25bn people are not in the labour force - and of the 500m in the labour force, hundreds of millions of them work in jobs which will be automatable within a decade or two - Westerners won't be using sweatshop workers in India to make their T-shirts and low-quality electronics when robots can produce superior goods in North America for an even lower price.
More than 60% of Indians don't even have *access* to a toilet (http://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-news-india/india-has-60-4-per-cent-people-without-access-to-toilet-study/) - let alone their own toilet - and the average IQ of Indians is about 82 (IQ and Global Inequality - Richard Lynn).
This doesn't look good. So why are people so optimistic about India?
industrializing a shithole, investors looking for china 2.0
reality is that this will not happen until a chinese economic collapse to force a lot of companies to move
>>1361155
But is industrialising India really going to be possible? The problems seem to be very bad; potentially unresolvable. How do you industrialise such a populous country with such a low average IQ? At least in China, the average IQ is around 100 - and the starting condition was not as low as that of India.
>>1361155
And of course, China didn't have over 1.25bn people when industrialisation started.
/biz/ explain the JP Morgan silver hoarding story to me and it's future effects on the silver price?
>>1361080
some say it's a hoax, and i have to agree.
if someone is hoarding and buying silver in massive amounts, the price has to skyrocket.
if it's true and a massive dumping is to happen, the price is going waaaay down.
if it's true and JP Morgan keep hoarding, silver is going to increase in price slowly at a steady rate.
i heard somewhere that silver mining breaks even if silver sells at 18-19.
>>1361080
the miners have been hoarding and will flood the market with their reserves
