Hey guys. Just a quick question for y'all. I've been looking for a house on land and I keep seeing this term crop up on a lot of them:
"Property is being offered in an online marketing event."
Usually more information is offered after that, and every single one mentions that the property is occupied, no visitation is allowed, and one even mentioned it was criminal offense to trespass on the property. They also only show 1 picture of the outside, no other pictures.
I'm really confused, since these are on legit listing sites with MLS...

Means it's going to auction for some reason or another. I imagine foreclosure.
>>1015015
So it's a short-sale?
>>1015024
No, a short sale is when the owner is selling it for less than what their mortgage is worth. Usually the bank gives them a strict number they have to sell it for. An auction would not be a short sale, it'd be a foreclosure, where the owner didn't make payments, so now it's owned by the bank.
Why do menial labor jobs in the food industry pay so well compared to other labor jobs? I'm 21 and I just got a temp job at Hershey a few weeks ago and it's been easy as hell. $10/hour and goes up to $16/hour once I'm full time. People who have been there for ~10-20 years get paid $30/hour. There's literally nothing to it. Before that, I was getting paid $8.50 (25 cents above minimum wage) to do backbreaking 12 hour shifts at a lumber yard. Been there since I was 18 and never got a single raise. Once I get hired full time and make $16/hour, I can possibly...

10-20 years on the factory floor. No thanks.
$30 / hour isn't hard to come by in any trade if you put your time in. Just join a union if that's all you aspire to be.
>>1014959
Because you need reliable labor and most food related jobs have really unreliable labor.
Let's be real, practically everyone on 4chan and reddit are getting CS degrees. Will it still be such a hot market in a decade?
Yeah bruh im getting one tooo bruh dw bruh the govt will feed us bruh we can code indie games bruh we can shill to isheeps bruh dw bruh be happy bruh just bruh bruh
>>1014864
No market will be. The amount of decent paying jobs compared to the amount of applicable degrees issued annually is absurdly out of proportion. College was never meant to be a job farm.

What are some good side business or operations to run while working a full time job? It doesn't have to overly successful but enough to contribute towards monthly living expenses.
I want to maximize the amount of money I save now to go towards investments.

I have a base salary and sales big bonuses every 3 months. What I do is I live off bonuses and invest/save my bonuses. My way of investing is forex/commodities and buying undervalued cars, basically washing them or fixing some things over the weekend and selling them with +10% profit. I have around $10k invested in forex, making 5-10% returns monthly (sometimes less than 5% sometimes more than 10) and a camry sitting next to my house waiting to be sold.
It's been like that for over a year. I never spend...

Live off my salary and invest bonuses, that is
>>1014802
You'll need something that can generate passive income on its own. Investments, creating your own product, etc.
You'll go insane if you spend a lot of extra time on a side gig on top of a full time job.
I'm wanting to start up a non-profit, but during my research I'm coming to discover that the United States government not only wants all organizations to be incorporated, but it also seems that they demand they all have boards of directors who will eventually have the ability to take over the organization and oust its own founder. How can I avoid this?
This thread is disgusting. You only deal with that shit once you have yuge operation. Now get to work.
>>1014787
Why is this thread disgusting? I don't plan on the organization staying small. But I'll be damned if I allow a group of incompetent oligarchs to steal my organization from me.
>>1014792
You're too low energy for me. Oligarchs? This isn't CHINA. Oligarchs are going to steal the money they have to give away? Any money they will receive will be peanuts anyway. Are you worried about peanuts? Are you a farmer? Mexican, maybe? Go back to your country, rapist.

Is this the thread where you post a bunch of novelty products that everyone thinks is neet, but then no one actually wants to waste money on the products when it comes down to it?
Silver is going down and down. Is it soon time to start considering buying?
I feel like silver stacking could be lucrative.
If it reaches 10$/ounce I'd be in no questions about it, but I need to be cautious anyway, it might go down for another two years, heavily so. I have all the time in the world however, so even if I don't buy at the perfect time, it will be profitable at the end.
That's the wistful thinking, am I retarded?

I hate to sound like /pol/ but you're getting the red pill effect.
only a small percentage get the job/life they want. Despite whatever contrarian says they know (but lying to themselves) that life is about compromise.
It's easy to say everything is attainable and so is writing ideas on web forum. And you're only 22 you dumb faggot you have plenty of time.
How to sell a facebook page?
How much value does my page have? The subject is takeaway and food delivery. It has 1000 likes under a generic brand all the likes are legit people who live in a small geographic area centered on a town of 30,000 people in the uk.
I was thinking a takeaway or pizza delivery company would buy it for £600?
$.95
Why do so many people online who ask a question begin with "How to ...?", who the fuck will want to help you?
95 cents? That sounds very low.
I think the page could easily generate £200 - £300 a week for the right business

>suck dick to get ahead
oh she works so hard!
>>1014528
hey, sucking dick is much harder than it looks.
Sometimes the dick might be too big for your jaw
sometimes the dick is dirty and makes you wanna throw up
sometimes its like blowing the Sasquatch down there.
I know all about the dick sucking business, been doing it for 20 years.
Well the thing is, as a run-of-the-mill white man, I wouldn't get the opportunities she did. She had every door opened for her because muh oppressed spic worker :(
I went to school with someone similar (guy who was born to migrant farm workers) and every firm was nearly literally sucking his dick.
Starting you're own business
Is it worth it?
How to get started?
Strategy on maintaining?
1) you need a genius idea... something innovative, something people never thought of before... idea is everything ,execution is unimportant
2) you need to focus on paying yourself a salary ASAP... your MAIN goal should be your own salary
3) google "make successful business quick" and sign up for a few courses... usually they cost money but they're totally worth it
4) when you have some capital GET an office asap... even if the rent is high... it's a disgrace to work from home or your garage LOL
These are some basic tips. You're welcome.

I was unaware that business had a personnel requirement.
Get a virtual secretary or better yet a virtual office.
Suddenly a polite woman is picking up the phone and then transferring calls to you, so you are "we"
Also you can give some cool downtown location as your office. Just hope that no one comes to visit you.
I'm in the exact same boat anon. You DO need to fake it a little.
- use we
- pretend to have a little size
- pretend to have a little more history
- pretend to have a little more legitimacy
It's all "kinda" true. Friends and family can be we. History can be time you discussed the business or worked in a related field. You gotta spin it.
Sorry but people don't trust people who look like noobs. But everyone has to start somewhere, so human nature is kinda bullshit.
