Anyone know how much you think I could bring someone down on their house listing price since I will be paying in cash?
I'm looking to spend $200K MAXIMUM on a house down in Arizona. I'm looking at Tucson right now and a lot of the nice ones that i like are around $250K.
How much do you think the average person would drop if I brought out my checkbook and said I could right them a check right then and now and have the sale be final?
>>1343987
No one gives a fuck. They get the same check from a bank.
They will drop that much if they really want to sell. I have sellers drop from 100k to 60k
I would fake some tears and fabricate some epic on how you got the 200k, as well as find a house that has been on the market a while.
Most people have a timeframe on selling and will take whatever once they run out of time.
people will get mad though, so brace yourself for rude comebacks when you tell them their home isn't worth what they think

the worlds 400 richest people lost 127 billion in Brexit. Even Sorros lost a lot of money in bets, although he made it green with his gold hedge.
When it comes to currency, everything is a volatile bubble and there is no escape from risk if you want to store labor.

I was trading and suddenly people start buying bitcoins at very elevated prices. They didn't needed to do that, but they did anyways. Buying at more elevated pricess than the sell prices. What the hell happened?

Isn't there already a bitcoin mutual fund?
I think it trades OTC and is kind of sketchy but I'm interested in this ETF if it gets regulatory approval.

Here's what I don't understand about stocks...
If I have £1000 to lose, I can just invest it in shares. Once I do that I just have to wait for the value to go up. Worst case scenario the value of the shares goes to £0. I can only lose the investment I put in. So, providing I don't mind losing the money, there's really no downside.
Isn't it then smart for me to put a small amount of my earnings each month into stocks and shares? Why do people panic when stock market goes down when, eventually, the market will go back up?
>>1349194
Historically the market has only ever "always gone up" over 20 year timespans.
Some people are not investing for 20+ years in the future, impatient, or scared of paper losses, so sell their index funds (shares of the whole market).
That often happens during bear markets and locks in their losses.
When dealing with individual shares (say, SUNE instead of VTI) companies die all the time, their shares going to 0 or whatever. Those are real losses and one reason it's best to stick with...

Patience kid. Nobody wants to wait years to see a nice return. In addition mits people are smart enough to understand that if the stock market isn't doing so well, there are various other investing markets to get into. So yea OP, it's good to invest, but don't think just because you put money into the stock market you'll make a return. Calculate all your movements, and if the stock
Market is looking shitty, just go to another market homie

Are people memeing when saying you should do only a few things for productivity's sake? Can only autists work on one thing for 10 hours in a row?
>>1349070
It's ideal if you can do it, but it's not easy.
>>1349070
I can do it with nothing more than coffee.
However the catch it: it only works sometimes.
On most days I procrastinate hard. I wish I could unlock the secrets of productivity. I guess the true secret is to just do it. 10 hours a day are definitely possible. Did it often enough. Wish i could do it consistently.
>>1349070
I must be autistic then because I prefer to spend the entire day on a project instead one hour on eight. The latter I feel like I'm constantly interrupted and forced to waste time switching gears.
Let's see if /biz/ is good at basic math.
Say we have an asset that's 100 dollars on day 1. Now, every day, the price can either go up with 30%, or down with 25%, and both price movements have the same probability. What's the return after 4000 days?

Anons, if you were to look back to the time when you were just started investing, what advice would you give yourself? I'm starting to invest myself and I'm trying to be wary of any common mistakes beginners usually make.

I would have put a few grand from when I was 18 into savings bonds. Back in the early 90s they matured much faster. Doubled in 10-12 years.
Or I'd have put it in CDs back then. Shit, some 6 month CDs in 1990 were over 8% for 6 months.
