Easier and to some extent cheaper to get your hands on harmful drugs. Besides name one service that is improved when getting it from the state over a private company?

to quote myself

An arising issue here would be the lack of ability to regulate, and distribution of drugs by unwarranted 3rd party vendors.
Anyone can set up a private 'illegal' production facility in an undisclosed location, assuming the only facilities allowed to make drugs are state owned.
With drugs being legal, and no way to really check if they are government produced, illegal distributors can then release their product to the public.
This product will severely undercut the government's...

Hello /biz/ I need to make between 600 and 800 dollars a month. Conditions are
>No special skills
>No wagecuck shit
>Can be done from home
throw a tantrum all day long until your parents give in
You won't be making a lot of home from home, nor will you make a lot of money not being a wagecuck - at least in the beginning.
Where do you live?
I keep seeing these threads.
You gotta leave the house to make money.
Im getting up at 5am tomorrow to go dig a ditch for $12/hr.
meh.
ITT we discuss financial frauds and ask questions about them.
Pic related, how could this happen? How did nobody notice? I watched the documentary 'The Smartest Guys in the Room', but what I don't understand is how their auditors didn't spot things.

Herd mentality mayne. Investors aren't supermen.
Politics say that it's impolite to rain on such a happy parade. You would've been shunned Amish style if you shit on so many people making money.
>>1038736
sup, /fraud/. Where can I get tren in America?
Can someone explain to me how this makes money?
It's made of lead, by children. Last I checked lead tin and plastic are super cheap. And you can pay children in onions.
>>1038704
Because it costs like half a cent to make and ship overseas.
OP your wife is a lucky lady...
What went wrong?
>>1038658
Complacency.
Sears had the resources and a huge catalog to jump into online marketing and be Amazon but way before Amazon came out.

Ty Pennington took advantage of Sears' generosity...
Brand became stale
Oil is going back up guys.
>>1038561
Haha. You are just mad you own oil, like litterally everyone else that says oil will go back up
>>1038591
Nobody said i own oil. Jokes on you.
>>1038561
only way oil goes up is if Iran and Saudi Arabia go to war
Any UK business owners?
I've been manager of 2 costas now, and I have to say, they fucking rake in money. It's easy money to rake in off pretentious fucks and old farts.
But I've now got £11,000 in the bank. I want to open a small coffee shop/bar. Any tips and advice on how to go about doing this. I'm fully aware without that trust fund i'll be needing a loan/partner.
>>1038535
>raking in money
>11k in the bank
Which is it, because 11k is hardly raking in money?
>>1038559
>Paid salary
>Age 21
I never said I was a franchised owner of costa. I work for them.
they rake in money because they are a recognised and trusted brand and get the best locations.
if you open an independent shop you won't have the same strategic advantages.
What's so bad about a federal job?
I'm offered a position in IT at a federal agency in Atlanta, GA and all of my friends tell me how federal jobs suck. Considering they are all unemployed complaining about student loans all day on Facebook, I would like to know where they get their shit from.
What's bad about federal jobs? The comfy benefits? The amazing retirement pensions?
>>1038472
The fact that you're benefiting from a tax system so broken that everyone KNOWS welfare programs are tearing us apart, yet we keep adding new ones.
Read Robert Kiyosaki, he makes more sense than I could
>>1038480
I don't support these type of people. You might as well give your money to televangelists too.
>>1038472
Nothing is wrong with it. You'll receive great benefits and plenty of time off even if the pay is a bit less. I'd love a job like that. Your friends are probably just meme lolbertarians like >>1038480.
As for >>1038480, why does it matter if anon benefits from the tax system? It's not as if IT jobs are frivolous spending on the government's part, and it's silly to criticize someone for advancing...

Chinese client of mine that I trust implicitly let me in on a deal- We're buying a dinky, rundown motel that's sitting on $200 million+ in land for $175 million.
Chinese wants to buy the property, and put it back on the market for 225 mil as a teardown and sell it to another chinese that will spend the hundreds of millions to turn it into a top class luxury motel, and sell 50 million dollar penthouses.
Anyway, he offered me 2% of the property for 3.5 million $ and I gave it to him.
This guy, I've made more than 3 and a half million doing...

>what do guys
>asking for advice AFTER you made a decision
You're just trying to assuage your fears because you've taken a big risk. Hope for the best but prepare for the worst, faggot. Give him a reason not to screw you over.
Btw, what province is it in?
>>1038330
Miami fl
He's a guy I've known for years- done maybe 10, 11 million in sales to him over the years.
Guy works 16 hours a day as a banker then goes home and imports shit from me.
I know it's a big risk, but it seems pretty good. The property hasn't been on the market for 50 years but everything next to it went up you know, a billion % since then.
>>1038324
Don't see why he would screw you. Hope you had a lawyer triple check the documents though. That's the only thing I could think of.
bought around 4k€ worth of bitcoins for 250$ a pop many months ago. stand to gain 3k€ if i sell now.
what do?
>>1038191
Do it and buy the next dip.
Or don't and lose.

Nigga just kill yourself
so I run a modest retail business and I'm suffering badly from online competition
you might think "they just have lower costs, so they win", but here's what I see every day
people come into my store, try my clothes on, take photo's of EVERYTHING, the shop the clothes
then when they find something they like, they walk home and fed-ex it from china.
I bear the cost of maintaining the store, but I don't get the profit
I also have a real problem with protecting my advertisements, online operators will come into my store posing...

Wow that sucks, OP. What do you sell?
If you're in a market which is prone to impulse buys (e.g. candy) maybe there's a way to entice consumers to buy immediately otherwise if it's more of a considered purchase maybe you could work on really being the friendly, helpful type that answers all their questions and differentiates themselves that way.
Otherwise I don't know what I'd do.
>>1038175
I'm in retail fashion, at the end of the day most sales are people browsing so we put most of our energy into making on the spot sales, but customers are on a spectrum when it comes to impassivity and we're loosing too many off the prudent end
>>1038179
at least my competition is like a swarm of bees, not a bear
it's lots of backyard operators mainly
the problem is they have no knowledge/regard for the law, they often pay no tax, employ bait advertising or other illegal sales tactics
they infringe copy-write like it's a sport
their new style of economy discourages investment and development, in the long run they make it impossible for businesses to be stable and build supply chains; we go back o having bazars

Sounds like you're fucked buddy. Either evolve or die
Is there any point in investing in altcoins?
1. WIll they ever actually make money?
2.What are the best coins to invest in in order to make said money
3. What length of time do you expect before sizeable amounts are made
4. Will altcoins ever separate themselves from Bitcoin?
I am looking into neucoin and peercoin, but so long as they are tied to bitcoin I'm a little concerned that they may in fact decrease in value.
All opinions are valued.

>1. WIll they ever actually make money?
They're already making money
>2.What are the best coins to invest in in order to make said money
LTC, Dogecoin, Ethereum
LTC and Doge are pretty safe plain vanilla bets on increase of marginal money flowing into crypto.
Both are well established crypto currencies
Ethereum is one of those crypto 2.0 meme currencies, but it seems to be the best of them bunch.

Will taxing wall street to pay for college tuitions work like Bernie Sanders said?
of course
>>1038035
I was told that taxes do not pay for any federal spending, taxing wall street does nothing to pay for students and some other crap about him being advised by three of the top economists.
I am very ignorant on this subject so apologies if what I said just sounded stupid
