I need advice, please help me.
I have around £3500 in the bank and I'm currently living with my mother. I despise her and she's on benefits (welfare), the money is from a student loan.
Our relationship is growing increasingly terrible and I feel trapped. I want to work so badly, I want to contribute and make my own money. Problem is, if I work, they take her benefits (welfare) away.
I want to desperately move out but is it a stupid business decision? Please, I need some guidance. Bearing in my mind I will be paying rent.

20 yo guy who doesn't have it figured out yet here.
I'd advise any young man such as yourself to take the risk of leaving if you are unhappy living with your mother. It may not be great short term but it's what I would do. I'm taking a semester off and working in the oil fields, 2weeks on 2weeks off. Can't stand my fucking parents which is why I'm out of the house as much as possible. You should leave brah if I could do it I would
>>1172707
Stop hating your mum you sick fuck.
Get a job that pays more than benefits and help your mum.
If you can't get a job that pays more than benefits you probably should hate yourself a lot more than you hate your mum.
JUST HOW BLACK ARE YOU?
>>1172707
Absolutely leave. Escaping the benefits trap is difficult, but what kind of life are you hoping to have living in a council house with a waste of space mother and barely enough money to scrape by?
The sooner you leave, the better.

Probably nothing significant.
Nothing much.

How will this impact businesses in California do you think?
What do you think we will see in terms of businesses who are able and mobile to move their workforce or industries elsewhere?

I have 50 thousand dollars saved up and I want to make something concrete out of it. What's the best business that I could open with 50 thousand? Even shit as basic and unimaginative as floor buffering or tile placing.

Thought about opening a fast food franchise? I read Chick Fil A is relatively cheap to open.
Just open it near a high school or college and witness the masses shove food in their mouth and shove money at you.

Is day trading a good way to make some extra money?
I'm a student so not looking to get rich, but I was fucking around with some investment simulation apps and noticed that especially cryptocurrency seems to go up and down pretty consistently during the day - most coins were really low at night and went up considerably during the day.
Anyone here into this and could share some experience?
Is it worth it to put more research in or are the gains not worth it?

Hi everyone, Welcome to the AUSBIZ thread

For clarity, they're trying to find websites and servers tied to this guy. Given he has the means and knowledge to use a trust or something instead, we're interested if you guys can dig anything up.

My fathers friend is the ultimate NEET. I just graduated and he asked why I wasn't working and I just shrugged my shoulders. His reply, "atta boy".
He worked in construction for exactly 6 years of his life. He was able to buy a single family rental. Made 90K in early 1980s and did a 1031 exchange for a duplex. His father was a banker and they were upper middle class. Life insurance policies, paid for home, CDs galore.
I'm sharing this to all the upper middle class NEETs out there. BUY A RENTAL!
It's pretty much the only way to maintain the...

Being a landlord is shit though
every day you have to deal with faggot tenants wrecking the building and it's your responsibility to get it fixed.
And most small-scale rentals are shitholes with tenants that are less than punctual with payments

Pay a fucking landlord then, it's not that hard.
But yeah, I don't care what they say about the real estate game since the crash. I tell people that I'm looking into holding real estate for investment purposes and they look at me like I'm a retard and mention muh 2008 subprime mortgage crisis.
You're not going to get incinerated like those playing the game then if you don't take out a second mortgage on the home you just bought to pay for the next one. There were people who...

If you look at most topics on this board and think to yourself "What a fucking idiot" or "What an ignorant 17 year old" then you can post here. Otherwise please do not post here.
How much attention do you pay to the media? If so, then which publications and why? I look at the Guardian website because it has a well laid out website. I also look at hacker news because it has technology related news.
>Has high IQ
>Feels superior to others and still comes to a board of people he deems inferior
Are you sure your IQ is as high as you think? You sound like a 16 - 19 year old who learned a little bit from some YouTube video and thinks he's a genius now and makes fun of people who believe the same he uses to believe a few months ago.

Ok /biz/ I need some serious help about my future. I'm currently a senior in high school, and I make about $1-2k a week. The year is over in 3 months and then I'll be stuck at a standstill.
I don't know if I should go the original college route straight off the bat and use the money I'm making (its from online work) to pay for my tuition, or do I seize this great money opportunity and go travel the world with 3-4 of my friends doing the same work as me. I don't even really like my major (engineering) I'm only doing that because it'll...

Thoughts on $ARQL for a long?

I'm 25, paying $450/month for rent, and make $85k a year plus bonuses. I'm trying to save for a house, and the amount of money one must save is astounding (I've about 5k saved up, due to a stupid drinking incident that I'm not too proud of..). Anyways, I owe $20k on my car, and I'm a huge Tesla fan. How stupid would it be for me to reserve the Tesla 3 tomorrow? I understand it's a new $35k vehicle, but...it is electric, and the possibility of breaking even could be a factor, since maintenance and gasoline won't be part of the cost. Thoughts?
MPG:...

It would be abso-fucking-lutely retarded to buy the car.
85k is like 60k after taxes... Your rent is 5k, and you've only got 5k saved up. How is that possible?
You could easily be saving something like 40k a year.
>>1169205
buying a brand new car is never a good financial decision. you are just throwing money away. why do you owe $20k on your car? is it because you bought it new and you're still paying it off? if so, why the fuck are you already looking to buy another vehicle? pull your head out of your ass
What kind of car do you have now?

Also, new money kids don't care about opportunity or even getting the most (materially speaking) out of your money. They only care about buying status symbols and emulating brash rapper by buying shit brands like Zanotti, Hermes, Yeezy's, and popping large bottles of Dom Perignon, etc. I don't mean to be a snob but that breed of new money is disgusting and is the worst social class.
