Anon, please save this thread and open it in a few years. Use that intense humiliation to humble yourself from then on.

FUCKING KEK
What to look for in a degree?
Engineering subjects and computer things have the highest starting salaries, but you all advice to do business and statistics and finance. So who's right????
Well? What are good degrees? If I study a Bsc in Statistics and then do a masters in Computers and shit with Statistics is that better?
stats is such a fucking meme. Do accounting. You NEED to know the language of business.
Depends what you're good at. If you suck at something you will be stuck at entry level anyway.
Can anyone here help me settle a dispute I had with a friend some time ago?
Basically his position was that since mining is only ~5% of Australia's GDP, it is just a minor part of our economy.
I countered though that this is misleading; since it makes up ~60-65% of our exports, it's actually the majority of our economy and that without mining we wouldn't be able to enjoy anywhere near the standard of living we have, and that the rest of the GDP merely represents us shuffling around the money we get from mining many times over.
Neither of us...

Never use GDP as any kind of indicator for anything. It's largely nonsense.
You are correct in that it is a huge export and therefore has a large impact on the economy as a whole. Also, the sheer number of workers and jobs it creates, both directly and indirectly, including jobs to lobby against mining and to study the negative impact of mining - massive. Huge amount of jobs and therefore a huge amount of taxable personal income and disposable income to be spent elsewhere. Then of course the taxes the...

NIce blog post. A business that doesn't take inventory will surely go broke. And so it is with people.
Show me a 90 day bank statement. Be honest with yourself, go back through all credits and debits of the last 90 days. There's no confirmation bias when looking at raw numbers.
You can't lie to yourself about how you only spent a "couple bucks" on energy drinks and smokes when you have a statement in black and white in front of you that says you spent $80 in one week. Post your bank statement and expose your delusion.
>Who else /gold market/ here?
I am debating suicide. I own my own small business and am sitting on around 15k worth of gold (that I buy for around 30%-50% spot price) and I cant decide to sit it out or try to melt it all within the next few days

I regret hoarding gold ;_;

>that I buy for around 30%-50% spot price
Care to elaborate?

Don't sell your gold it's a bear trap, I don't own any gold I actually own bitcoin.
The thing is when researching about physical assets from conspiracies,statistics,agendas,manipulated statistics,shadow statistics gold and silver WILL go up very soon.
I got an invitation in the mail for one of these fuckers.
After reading through it, it's got a whole bunch of benefits and shit that I don't need and won't really benefit from. I won't be getting one, but dammit do I still want one.
How do I learn about the psychological techniques that were used against me to generate this desire, so that I can use it against others?
It's about building a brand and an image. Like Apple, or Marlboro
Create a brand that feeds into your consumer's self image.
>>1003829
There's allot that goes into this kind of psychology and i don't really feel like typing allot but basically the invitation and card make you feel important/wanted.
>>1003906
This. My dad almost (*almost*) accepted the invitation to the Amex black card but didn't want to pay whatever the ridiculous yearly fee was at the time, like $1000 or $2000.
But he pays $800 a year to Value Line, a "stock trading" publication, so they send him a magazine of useless information once or twice a week. Go figure.

Everyday some successful person posts an AMA but never posts proof. Yet they still get 150 replies of bullshit.
How do i find a job?
i spend lots of time already applying for entry level positions on indeed, but i never get called or anything
i've got some retail experience, what am i doing wrong? do i need to call the places i apply at?
Find per diem jobs instead of part-time. Got one at the hospital and rake in about 30 hours a week for about 5 hours of work.

how do i find one of those?

My app wants to charge companies $300 per poll. Is this too greedy?
>>1003302
Only if you have enough people using the app to justify that, nobody's going to pay $300 for 10 people's opinion.
>>1003305
The goal is to get an active userbase of 1k or so before we go for the sales.
why would people answer questions for your shitty poll?
Will the college bubble burst in the next 10 years?
I can either go into a master's/phd program after I graduate or straight into wagecuckery. I prefer the academia route, but if colleges are going to downsize heavily soon it's not worth it.
PhD program is literature, but I am also majoring in statistics. I'm not so stupid as to put all my eggs into one basket.
>>1002847
A Masters is still going to be worth more than a bachelors even if you don't learn anything.
Just don't end up overpaying for that shite.

STEM is useless.
Why is it that men seem to do all the shit jobs while all the cushy ones are done by women? And I mean, in both cases, zero skill jobs.
If I go to my local supermarket, the ones pushing shopping carts outside in the rain are all men. The van delivery drivers are all men. The people working at tills are mostly women. Shelf stacking is about 50:50. Customer services are one hundred percent female.
The same for all zero skill office positions. HR, administrators, its all women. I went inside an HR company once. An office full of women. Meanwhile, builders on roads,...

You pretty much described men doing all the high paying casual/part time jobs and women doing all the shitty full time work while getting paid 1/2.
>>1002703
Well your observation isn't incorrect anon. Pic related.
As for why: women are really physically weak, and thus men outcompete them in these roles without even trying.
Likewise when your role is 90% face to face chatting, small talk, building rapport, those sorts of gay things, women have a natural advantage over men and outcompete them without even trying.

Why haven't you invested in Disney yet?

It's like you want to make $10 over the span of years.
This is the second Disney post... Pump and dump?

MICROSOFT
