What do you see happening with interest rates now in the future? The ECB will keep them artificially low for the foreseeable future but what happens if there is a crash in the stock markets?

fuck off I need a strong economy now

You are basically looking a massacre after the fed's quarter point increase. Either way, you are fucked. You will burn all pension funds if you dont not raise them.

I sold my ETFs some months ago but still keep European stock. It will be interesting to see if a rise in interest rates causes a capital flight from European stock.
If I buy shares of a stock do I have to pay a $10 fee for each fucking individual buy on Etrade?
I can't buy multiple shares of a stock and get one etrade $10 fee?
$10 flat rate PER TRADE ya fuckin silly twat
What the fuck are you on about?
1 transaction = 1 commission charge
e.g. 100 shares buy = $10 charge
e.g. 1 shares buy = $10 charge

Buying a houseboat instead of renting. You can get a small boat for just 5k. Spend another 3k on renovations. Cruising License is 400 a year.
For 9 months rent a place to live in the city permanently. And when you want to upgrade you can sell it for the same money you paid for it.
Autism Awareness Month is every month on /biz/ I see.
Show me a $5K houseboat that only needs $3K in repairs.

also, you're forgetting harbor fees
I saw recently it's worth nearly 1/3 of a trillion dollars in total.
I got a page in high school and deleted it after a week, now I have one from graduation that I only use if I lose a phone number.
But I use my e-mail more than that and Yahoo isn't nearly 290B in value.
I'm curious because going into web development, I have to at least understand what gives websites value.

buy stickers really low, preferably cluj napoca holo or somethinf, wait 2 months, sell for 10-20% profit. Ive just "invested" 10 € in kennyS stickers and sold for roughly 25 % profit.
I have $1400 saved up. I am new to the spend money to make money thing. Should i keep it legal or illegal? Both? What are some good ways to get started in investing.

Invest in classified ads selling your dick sucking services.
But in all seriousness, make sure you have at least six months of living expenditures saved up first. Then begin to invest in dick sucking enterprises.

You forgot about knee pads, they go great with such a lucrative business model.

Bitcoin no seriously
guys i have 100k and have been looking at a lot of real estate lately, and seems like the vast majority of places barely break even in terms of rent versus mortgage/tax. which is slightly better than nothing, because someone else is paying your mortgage, but for a prop of 300k, literally the amount going to principal is about 300-400 for first 10 years
i saw a few that seem like they would make cash flow of like maybe 1k/month (4 unites rent over costs), but are in low middle class neighborhoods - like there would be no sense in improving the property or seems like would...

you can put 1 yearly dump of money into a house interest free. (where i live, probably the same where you live)
>buy house
>have tenants pay mortgage/slightly profit you while you work a stupid amount
>end of year dump a huge amount of cash into the house
>repeat for a couple years, you now own a house.
Real estate team admin here. We work with tons of investors.
Look for double lot 2/3 flats that have 2-3 units on each floor or converted single families that have 2-4 units in total in middle class neighborhoods. If you're around a city, look at the suburbs.
Buy a little cheaper, find a buddy contractor willing to do any work a little cheaper, etc, etc.
Friday we sold a $210k 3 flat with 6 units to a regular investor. After the inspection he figured it'd need about $40k in work in total, was in a middle class neighborhood, and he was expecting...

Hey /biz/ I apologize if this isn't the right board for this question, but I need a little bit of help. Should I put my current employer as a reference on my resume? It's only me second real job, so without them my references are kind of lacking. The problem is, they don't know I'm looking for a new job, and although I'm a great employee, they've been driving the company into the ground and quite a few employees are jumping ship. They're trying to do everything they can to make me stay, but I'm just no making enough money. My fear is that...

You don't need more than 3 references. Most HR departments won't even contact one of them, let alone 3. No HR department/recruiter is going to contact 5.
>>987749
I know they won't contact 5, but as far as presentation goes I felt that 5 looked better than 3. I also have the fear that if I don't include any current references they'll assume that I'm currently a poor employee, which isn't the case. Maybe I'm just thinking too much into this, but I really want this job. I'm only making $11 an hour now and this job will start $14.50 + commission, and it would finally allow me to move out of my parents basement, so I'm really stressing about it.

Why do rich people cut their family out so often, and arbitrarily. It seems to be a rich white thing, your kid does one wrong thing and they're out of the family for good.
When have you ever heard this besides online? It doesn't really happen. If anything other races are much worse at it.
Indians - Pre-Assigned marriages
Chinese - Controlling every aspect of your life and no fun allowed
Blacks - tell their kids it's all whiteys fault and their dad never helps raise them
Natives - Drink handsanitizer to get drunk

Lol didn't the one Buffett disowned do something retarded like making a documentary decrying rich people?

I've got $60,000 in my bank account right now and it's not collecting any interest from the fuckheads who run the bank.
I've also got a Vanguard account with $5,000 invested in some medical mutual funds.
Next year I'm going to empty my bank account and stuff all my savings into investments. I'm open to any long-term investment suggestions.

So after being a fuckup for way too long, I finally got my act together and got a decent, steady job.
I want to act like a grown up for once, and try and save a little each month. After budgeting, it looks like I can square away ~300 a month. I've looked around at plain jane savings accounts with banks, but it looks like the interest rates are pretty bad. Like almost nothing. I'd like to be able to earn at least some interest, but hopefully be able to take money out if need be. Any suggestions?
I am no financial guru but save up a chunk and then open up some sort of CD account.
What you need first and foremost is an emergency savings account. This savings should be in cash or in something very low risk like a money market account. This amount should cover about six months worth of expenses in case you lose your job or something unexpected comes up you won't have to go into credit card debt. After this is saved up I would invest in a low cost index fund, look up the funds Vangaurd offers. This is where the majority of my investment are held. I pick individual stocks with play money that I wouldn't mind losing but any substantial amount is...

I looked at CD's and even still with the calculator I used, it only came out to some pocket change.

I read from a reliable web page that bill gates: took math 55, the hardest maths course at harvard; would work for 35 hours in a row before sleeping (his room mate said this); would attend zero of his registered course lectures so he could attend the lectures of other courses instead. Add to that shitloads of programming as a teenager.

These people all slept 4 hours a day too, which if you don't have the genes for (~1% of the population) you'll never pull off for more than a week without losing your mind
