STOCK THREAD, SHOW US YOUR PORTFOLIO FAGGOTS!
also, i have an extra 30$....any cheap stocks you guys think i should get?
>>1108832
>$351
>>1108832
do you have free trades or what? I wouldn't even consider making a trade of less than $1000
>>1108867
fuck you nigger, i'm poor atm.
if i finish a welding apprenticeship at 19 and make the right investments, could i realistically be a millionaire before i'm 30?
>>1111832
Yeah but it involves ruining your 20s with lots of overtime.
>>1111837
This.
It would mean working 80hrs a week, and living out of a shoebox and eating beans every night.
TOTALLY WORTH IT.
>>1111832
Assuming you mean 1 million dollars, yes.
However, 1 million dollars is not enough to live on for the rest of your life at 30 anon, so there's no real point in half-killing yourself to hit that by that arbitrary date. Just put away a more reasonable amount and retire when you're 45.
Are you idiots even paying attention?
hurr durr just another shitcoin durrrrr
Just another shitcoin
>>1111647
Looks like another shitcoin to me

get a comfy white collar job in a forever field like finance or law or medicine or set yourself up for management and consulting
Playing the bullshit is the only answer. Only a moron thinks that modern politicians can fix issues like this without massive consequences.

Greetings, if you guys would have listened to me a few months ago when I said to buy up .xyz domains, you too would have a small fortune by now.
China is going to ban .com so to speak very soon, don't believe me? You will see after March 1st, more like by the end of March.
Chinese have been buying up new extensions that are licensed and soon to be licensed there. Extensions like .top, .xyz. wang. Look at the number of registrations and where they are coming from in the last few months, mostly Chinese.
Basically the bitcoin for the chinese are domain names, they see them as almost real estate.
I currently have over 500 premium .xyz names, Chinese chips without aeiou (chinese do not like vowels for the most part), and also NNNN's. N= number domains and LLL = letters.
Pic related, that's from last year, go compare it to the stats right now, no other extension in history has jumped that high in such little time. Chinese are buying up all premium names, chips you can find.
>>1111645
So where does the money come? How am I gonna get rich? Well, Chinese buy number .coms for thousands of dollars, premiums for tens of thousands. It is no different with .xyz, albeit it is cheaper now but not for too long, it's growing faster than .com ever did.
Current XYZ's sold within the past month.
9.xyz = $170,250
yy.xyz = $37,500
22.xyz = $25,800
zz.xyz = $17,100
pz.xyz = $8,100
118.xyz = $7,500
xxx.xyz = $6,450
premium keyword names sold,, that were bought for only $1
tags.xyz 301 USD 2016-02-24 NameJet
jjj.xyz 9,600 USD 2016-02-23 NameJet
synergy.xyz 280 USD 2016-02-23 NameJet
sword.xyz 190 USD 2016-02-19 NameJet
supplier.xyz 313 USD 2016-02-17 NameJet
jel.xyz 310 USD 2016-02-17 NameJet
It just recently passed .biz registrations which has been around for over a decade, soon it will pass .info registrations, then .org and .net, quite easily actually. .net only has like 15 million registrations and has been here for decades.
The next .com is .xyz
You have to remember there are 3x as many people on the internet in China than in the united states. There is a reason why Google used .xyz as their parent company page.
Not trying to sell you guys anything, everyone bought their lotto tickets so to speak, none left anyways.
anyone here invest in domains? Been doing it for almost 10 years now.
Considering Chinese investors continue to offer me $40k to $60k for my LLL.com's, I think you're full of shit.
>>1111763
>I think you're full of shit.
How is anything I said bullshit?
I never said anything about LLL.com's, nice try though. You need to face the facts that new gtlds will continue to grow, and it will continue to hurt .com prices. Especially since thedomains.com just recently sold their entire portfolio to Godaddy. Dot com investors are so pissed that they bitched to west.cn to stop promoting non .com domains, .XYZ especially.
You can read about that incident here.
>Big Chinese .com investors are pissed with West.cn
https://www.namepros.com/threads/big-chinese-com-investors-are-pissed-with-west-cn.921833/
HILARIOUS! everyone is dumping .com now. Should be nice to pick up some flash sales. But yeah, wait until after April, you don't know what you are talking about.
and yes although LLL.com you can pull 40K to 60K, you will not get those numbers in 5 to 10 years, im telling you now.
There is just wayyy too many extensions coming out. Alphabet moved to .xyz, you can reach it at www.abc.xyz. They will update it before the year is over, including gv.xyz for google ventures, boston dynamics and all their divisions, will be held on that extension. But it also means something in chinese, it is also almost done in being certified for Chinese use.
The writings on the wall. You can see that when well known domain investors bought up every single LLLL CCC NNNNN few months ago.
Been searching for a new entry level job for the past six months while currently employed in what essentially feels like purgatory. My experience so far:
>find perfect jobs that would would make a great jumping off point, literal monkey work
>expect 3+ years of experience in a previous mid level position, while the job itself is junior level
>continue with application
>spend an hour filling out an experience form, despite my experience being clearly stated on my resume, so as their automation system can rule me out if I don't use 9 of their 10 key phrases in the job description
>after filling out EEOs and proclaiming myself as white male non-veteran scum, I can finally upload my resume and cover letter
>website doesn't accept PDFs, as they built the career page in the early 90s and clearly don't give a shit about interested employees
>type out all of my experience yet again in a text block
>press "Submit"
>page loads... And loads... And loads...
> "sorry, we fucked up. Please try that again."
>back to square one
Wake me up from this fucking nightmare

no one needs turbospergs with no skills to fill their job positions when there are plenty of skilled people out of work
>>1111360
I'm on the same boat.
I have no experience; I'm dumb, ugly and have no social skills.
How the fuck can you even succeed when you either need 3-5 years of experience or a bachelors and usually they require both.
Are there even any jobs with LIVABLE wages for people with no exp or degree that isnt completely inaccessible to the majority of the public ? Does anyone know where to search for these so called jobs and how to get your dick in the door without having a relationship with the employer. Fuck nepotism, also hur dur i have a 88 IQ
Here is the current top 30!

I just poured my $55k savings all on Ether.
How much return am I gonna make? I'm looking at at least 10x, right? Can't wait for ETH to blow up this year.
>>1110806
You will be fucking rich bro. Good job!
>>1110806
Nicely meme'd sir but I'm afraid you're not adding new value to the table :^)
buy at next dip below $4
could have netted you a few additional 100%
Being a "Life Coach" seems like it would be the ultimate "fake it" and profit scheme. Any ideas, given the need for *credentials* and such?
Look at this guy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qfb0D3ZdOP0

Bleach your hair and ride a camel around town. I hear lotsa life coaches do that.
okay /biz/ i'm an 18 year old senior and I'm interested in learning about running my own business, owning stock, and what not. Where would you recommend I start? do you have any tips?
>>1111492
pls help
trial and error
>>1111527
failure is okay
did it require a full book to make this point?
like most books, no it didnt. but someone with an ego as big as Talebs cant go around publishing pamphlets you know?
>>1111278
ya that's kind of what I thought. I was listening to dao of capital recently and it has some interesting anecdotes but if you're not interested it's like pure filler
>>1111271
Totally agree OP. Taleb needed an entire book to satisfy his urge to appear poopysmart (as he is, btw). I have stopped reading non-fiction integrally altogether I just skip to the point. Anyone agree?
Lots of samefags changing IDs shilling ETH, so take notes.
TC(ness) is not required for BTC and would very likely lead to unforeseen problems and instability (mostly related to the halting problem). Money isn't a computer.
They address halting by fee paying for interpreter cycles. When the fee runs out the contract is stopped.
But there are obviously interpreter escape dangers, which are harder to contain for a stateful, looping, low level (byte code like) language. Look at the history of java sandbox escapes. People say that was mostly due to call outs to complex native library have to look through the (large!) CVE database on JVM to figure out the stats. Also the pressure may have been lower. If you get real money under it all kinds of resources and unrevealed 0-days can leak out of the woodwork and create the new target for grey and black hats some of whom are world class at this stuff. Or even from national security network intrusion insiders with Snowden-level access or the people developing and selling grey market 0-day to the intelligence community etc. Those people are fallible humans too - they may succum to the financial motive, or the people who developed and sold them the 0-days may find a new monetization model, or second use for them (they cant "forget" them after sale).
There have also been VM escapes from full hw abstraction vms (i mean not just API sandbox light linux-in-linux virtuozzo but actual whole OS in the container).
And finally bitcoin scripting is functional, stateless and non-looping (non TC in fact also) for a reason. Bitcoin doesnt (and I think its intentional) have even extrospection. There are grey-goo outcomes if you are not careful with even something as constrained as an extrospection op code to existing language. There will be whole classes of not yet imagined grey goo opportunities lurking in a full TC language. You cant easily systematically defend against whole classes of such issues without intentional constrained language.
>>1110662
TC = Turin Complete btw. It's one of the selling points by shills, yet they are low IQ enough to not understand that trying to create a bulletproof way to store your money under a TC machine is a fucking disaster, that's why ETH will have some niche usages for complex smart contracts, and that's all. Stop hoping for quote unquote Bitcoin 2.0, it's not gonna happen.
Bitcoin Script is strong enough to cover most cases of smart contracts, and sidechains are a redpill that most ETH bagholders will not swallow until they can't deny it anymore which will be pretty soon.
The actual scaling and usage of ETH is yet to be seen, don't fall for this.
damn someones really salty about missing the boat on ETH
if say i have 50 000 to invest in stocks, should i buy 10K shares of 5 different companies or what?

Run a business?
Starting a business?
Going out of business?
Share your business!
>>1110144
I'm think about starting a resell business. Was going to go with eBay but a lot of sellers who once recommended it are saying it isn't really worth it now. Made pretty good cash flipping shit on Craigslist.
>>1110154
I've heard it's kind of shit now. Just picked up a couple server racks that go for 2400 new for 400. Gonna use craigslist most likely. Ultimately I don't care if it makes me money because I made a great business contact who happened to be at that location at that time. Place was pretty cool too, big movie theater that shut down.

For anyone curious on where to start with creating a legit business, look into llc vs s corp.

Going to try reposting this since the last one didnt get too much attention.
So I have been considering a career selling medical equipment to hospitals.
I have a "salesperson" type personality and was planning on going into high end real estate, but this seems more profitable. Is there anyone here that has/had this career and can testify on it?
What kind of schooling did you need?
Was it just the regular sales/marketing/whatever or did you need medical courses as well?
My dad worked in healthcare sales his entire life. He majored in biology, and worked at a hospital where he ended up teaching staff how to use computers when they began to be implemented. Got hired with SMS who was eventually bought out by Siemens. Worked for Siemens until he retired. He did medical billing software and support. Nursing with sales experience will get you far. He averaged around 80k + commission.
>>1108284
Do you know if it's required or if they'll still hire you even if you went to school for business? because that's what I'm currently going for. How was his commission? I get that it's sales and it all depends but like on average how did he do?
just dont let any homeless people steal your equipment and dont have a faggy son and your good to go
