I mistakenly posted this on /pol/ yesterday. Should've gone straight here. Effortless arbitrage opportunity. After taxes and commission, you'll still be making an amazing return.

Fuck off, 99% of you retards trade stock like its a bet anyways.

How is this arbitrage?
What is a 'good' salary (in $US)?
Yeah. I want to know it too. Someone please

Depends on how many people you are supporting, cost of living where you are located, what your expenses are, what your company's insurance plan is, etc.

What's the average salary of a business graduate fresh out of university

What are your hours like?

They are pretty long, a week can average from 50-70 a week. There is no getting around that. We are formally not allowed by the company to work on Saturdays, but Sunday is fair game.
Any two year community college degrees or skilled trades worth getting into?
electrical or instrumentation tech. Welding is good fast money but may be bad for your health in the long term. You do not always have to go to school to get in the trade. You could start at entry level first and work your way up. You wouldnt make much at first but at least you could avoid loans and debt. What trades have you considered?
>>1021958
technical manual labor. Anything "cushy" like radiology/IT essentially exists to flood the market with a labor force to drive down salaries within the industry.
>>1022090
exactly. Everyone has a degree these days and wants 100k to sit at a desk. If you are willing to get your hands dirty you have an advantage.
I want to move to the US to live there.
What is the best career plan to do so? What major should I consider in order to establish residency and get a job easily?
Is computer science the best choice?
>>1021137
I'm doing a MEng in Mechanical Engineering with like 2 years of that being in industry. Fuck know what I'm gonna end up doing after that, I'd say CompSci if you have what it takes
>>1021164
CS is interesting but what matters isn't that, I want to know which major/career moves can make it easier to move to the US to live and work.
>>1021171
CS.
All it takes is to look up career vacancies on job sites bud. A ton of CS jobs are available and offer visas.
China markets now closed for remainder of session after CSI300 falls 7% after 15-minute trading halt.
What does this mean?
Market will be extremely red all day. $DJI already down pre market, as are other Indexes.
If you have any market orders, close out of them. It'll be a fire sale today.
>>1024551
means the chinese government just liquidated some of the position they had put on buying a bunch of stocks to "stabilize" the market in august. if they got more to sell in the near term i guarantee some chinese crooks already know about it and will be sending china lower. in the mean time american firms remain generally short china and will chalk this one up as a win.
Some anon on /pol/ (supposedly working close with those in the bilderburg group) foretold the happening in January. This must be it
It's about time.
Let's talk about scams, 419, Craigslist, eBay, etc.

I'm not going to belittle an old "friend" by talking all high and mighty in a private chat.
Noob to trading that needs a couple nooby questions answered please and thank you.
So I am determined to get good at daytrading stocks.These are the things I know so far. I am well aware that It will take me a while before I actually learn the skill and make consistent profits. I am aware that I have to basically consider my capital as gone and thus trade with what i am willing to lose. Am aware that I will lose money over and over again most likely.. I am aware I have to ignore my emotions when it comes to trading and trade as objectively and logically as possible.
I...

It takes 2-4 years of daily practice to become good at trading. Just like anything else, if you stick with it long enough eventually you'll stop sucking at it.
As for holding long term positions while still day trading, yes that's entirely possible if you've got the capital to do so.
You should pickup a general intro to trading book, you've got a lot to learn.
I literally threw a hundred dollars in a penny stock about medical marijuana two years ago and took it out days later for a ten grand. Haven't been back since.
There's nothing to this shit op, just do some research and go in on something.

/Biz/, how do I cash this without going to jail?
>>1025603
you don't that's the whole idea of checks
>>1025605
I've cashed checks before. Sometimes they do not ask for an ID.
What about cashing the check via my phone using the bank app? Photoshop my name over?
>>1025615
That sounds like a horrible idea. It's not worth the risk.
I made a movie. I need 50,000 people to view it to make my money back (approx $10/each). How do I do this if I had lets say fifty grand to pay for it.

>>1025106
Host private screenings and try to find theaters that will show it. Usually the majority of ticket sales go to the distributor, but if you're your own distributor then obviously it goes to you.
>>1025113
Put as much money into marketing as possible, but $50k probably won't get you very far. You will probably want to take a guerilla marketing approach, and maybe try and do interviews or publicity stunts to promote it
The market will recover eventually, r-r-right?
I just invested 10k in index funds a week ago and now it's down to 9.5, unsure if I should pull out or not.
From what I read everywhere the index funds will ALWAYS recover eventually, is this true?
STAY IN CASH NIGGA
Yeah OP, it's coming back any minute now.

literally what
My mother and father want to start a business.
A tow truck business to be exact, towing cars and shit. My grandmother has about $100k she is going to give them as a start up. They plan to move to Florida, and start their business there. Neither of them have business experience, neither of them have a degree of business studies (Or anything related).
Am I wrong to think this is a retarded plan, and will most likely fail?
Should I voice my concern? Or should I just let them to do them?
They're both early 40s, and if this fails they will most likely...

So they're moving to a new town where they don't know the market, the people or the competition? That is going to be a problem.
The second problem is being handed all that free money. They will certainly blow it. I could start a towing service on $8k. Having limited funds makes you work harder and spend smarter. Having free money leads to laziness and unnecessary expenses.
>>1024978
Yeah. I don't expect them to succeed, but whatever. I'm not going with them, I'm going to be hundreds of miles away. So I'm just going to watch them fail from far.
My ex employer did this. The tricks he had to make him successful include being a mechanic, having a garage with 3 bays to take the vehicles he started with 1 truck, and 1 bay. He had sons to drive his trucks as he got more trucks. Once you have 24/7 coverage get a AAA contract to fill your mechanic bay. The trick is to anticipate why people need a tow, and capitalize on it. He also did recovery until his kids were getting shot at (chicago). There's alot more to it if interested, I have thought about going this route and learned alot from someone who currently runs the...

I'm past the point of thinking about it for years on end and this month I am going to go ahead and make the plunge.
I'm a horrible liar, and hate lying, but things are dire and my time is running out/has already run out.
I have an AutoCAD certification from community college, an associates in Business, and an Associates in English, and I've been unemployed for the past 2 years, and before that nothing about 10/hr crappy retail jobs. Being 29 and bald, its no longer fun to work at the mall or barista or some high school shit, its soul crushing....

Just an idea
Look for companies thatve merged. Either as a takeover, or ones that have moved overseas (Ireland I think is a recent country companies are rebasing in). A lot of companies have been doing that to avoid tax exemption. You can try to play the victim card I guess.
It all depends what you job you want tho

>I have an AutoCAD certification from community college
You do realize knowing how to use a pencil, doesn't mean you know how to draw shit?
What do you want to draw in AutoCAD?
>>1024723
Thanks for the idea, I will look into that
I originally went for mechanical engineering, but dropped out for a girl and other reasons (bad mistake) but still had enough to get the certificate.
>>1024733
I want to draw mechanical stuff, its what I went for.
And I do know how to draw shit, I've just never been able to put it to use. Even people who did do the full 2 year degree are working in restaurants and sams clubs and shit. Shits depressing.

If you havent found a job in 3 years it is YOUR fault, sorry kid. Also you might be dumber than you think you are. It's a tough pill to swallow, I know. But your grammatical errors are very basic words and sentence structures learned around the age of 12 or so, and you fail hard.
God bless.
>>1024510
Dude....You can't just be unemployed for three years. If you can't find a job in this field, and you're fresh out of high school, take up work at a fast food place or something.
>>1024567

>something a male gets a job in
I always point out to people I'm with how many businesses are run by all female staff.
