Were you folks aware that the Veterans Administration offers veterans 103% on their mortgages? In other words, if a veteran puts a $100,000 house under contract, they could loan $103,000 from the VA-- plus a small interest rate. On top of this, Veterans have one of the lowest foreclosure rates in the nation. Just some information that I wanted to pass on.

You are the one coping my friend. Bitcoin will never ever get above $450 a big dump off is coming soon as slock.it presale converts $30million worth of alts and BTC into ETH.
Sell BTC for ETH before you end up in the red again.
What's the largest amount of liquid physical wealth you had all within your view, and in what form was it in?
Considering buying a small chest and filling it with hundreds of dollars worth of coins on this prospect.

Five thousand American dollars in Benjamins, if we're talking just currency.
For figurative currency, I've unloaded thousands of dollars of alcohol in my time working at an old job.
I held 15k once. Also my friend let me wear his 40k watch. I've been in a 100k car and a 10mil home but none were mine. I'm still just a poor fag with rich friends
As for myself, I've only ever held a couple of hundred dollars worth in the form of 20's.
I do have a $1.2K computer I got for free off a contest a long time ago. It was probably the most expensive thing in the house at the time.
My sister, however, has close to 10K in 20's and 100's locked away in a safe she has in her room, supposedly. The safe is definately there, at the very least.
Being a millennial myself, its really embarrassing a lot of people in my age group are actually this fucking dumb when it comes to SIMPLE personal finance and they would rather blow away all their money on expensive holidays and hedonistic pleasures because #YOLO. And then they get all mad and whine about how its all the governments and corporations fault they didn't save enough for retirement
The fuck is the point of money if you don't enjoy it?
>>1101060
Enjoy it for the long term, forever, instead of enjoying it for a week and then be miserable.
>>1101051
I'd rather travel the world in my twenties and have lots of experiences and memories to look back on, you could die at any moment.
Lets do it boys!!, lets reach 90K!!!

Is it about "making 4chan famous again" or is it about making you rich?
Get a real job, asshole.

this is actually a pretty cool business venture, I would honestly suggest marketing this idea to boards like /pol/, /sp/, /b/, /fit/, /v/, etc. GL.

Take as many interviews at lesser companies in the same sector to learn what questions you'll need to answer, then make a little rolodex of answers.
Toughts?

Do you have to wait for your blog account to be 6 months old or you have to wait for each blog domain to turn 6 months old, then buy the domain and only then you can monetize it?
>>1106005
You'll have to be more specific.

Reeee
>>1105980
>not having a margin account
> not having a broker that supports instant transfers
Joke's on me though, I was watching each and every fall day the last three weeks with no money to transfer in.

Damn son. today's been good for me.
Of course that really doesn't mean much
How's the job market for Actuarial or Financial Mathematics?
Is this field gonna grow in the next few years, or is it gonna shrink due to Berncuck wanting to kill wall street, and quants being blamed for 2006?

It seems now is the opportune moment to invest in oil, /biz/. So low pirates won't nab it, but surely it'll rise again, right? But I have no idea how to even get started. What the hell do I invest in, where do I start the gravy train?
Oil is doomed. Invest in ethereum
You could try putting some money in VDE
Spreads risk across multiple large oil & and oil-related companies
Buy oil futures contracts at 500:1 leverage. Put your life savings into this.
Oil WILL bounce back, and you will be RICH. FILTHY RICH.
Does anyone else think the stock market is a scam? How is everyone so convinced that these traditional investment vehicles (stocks, bonds, etc...) are the most effective use of money? I feel like too many people are shortsighted in this regard. Go open a fucking lemonade stand - why isn't that a good investment? That is a bit of an exaggeration but I am tired of seeing all these redditors talk about which Vanguard fund they are going to buy into. Why not invest in a business instead?
Exactly. You can get far more return by investing into a business that you actually own.
Anyway saying that, buy ethereum.

I don't personally like cryptocurrencies but it's more or less the "outside the box" approach I am talking about. It just feels like this whole "invest in the stock market" thing is an agenda being pushed upon the peons.

Owning a business is hard work. Investing in a small business isn't possible for 99% of people as they don't have the opportunity to do so.
Investing in stocks is very easy, well described and a historically decent idea.
Thoughts on online poker, /biz/?
>>1105544
Only good if you learn the online tells. Still too luck based to be a reliable money maker.
Play French Roullette (has two greens and you get your bet back if you land on them) if you want to gamble some of you money, bet on 1-18 and 25-36 (3rd 12) with a ratio of 3:2.
>>1105544
I'm a huge poker fan, love playing. Doubt I'll ever make enough to live off of but I still play as much as I can.
Live games you can still turn a profit but if you're in the US you're fucked if you're trying to play online.
Only place I've found is a few sites for bitcoin like nitrogensports.

utter degeneracy and pleb tier "business"
Is having children the single most devastating event that you can bring to your finances?
no
it's only one cost under getting married in general
>why else even buy a house
>the cost of a wedding
>now you have to get a minivan
etc.
>>1105378
No. You could quit your job, spend all your money on flammable shit, buy more on credit, burn everything, and declare bankruptcy.
Or sink your money and every bit of credit you can get into a big expensive car, and drive it the wrong way down a highway and cause a huge accident to fuck your chance of ever being insured again.
So, no, but you'd have to fucking TRY to fuck yourself over that much.
Children do not make sense if you can't use them as unpaid labour.
