How did the Americans manage to build so many in a short period of time?
How much did they lose?
Especially since at this time oil was low during building up the wells.
They became the number 1 producer in a short period.
>How much did they lose?
Americans as a whole lost nothing.
Oil isn't nationalised in America.

Plus, the oil companies made a fortune collectively as did many employees, landowners, stockholders and municipality's.
Exxon Mobil for example has made $400 billion profit in the las ten years. For the industry its in the trillions. This is a blip just like the 80s price crash
Where were you when Cyanide 7 happiness made $800k in 4 days by asking people to fund their silly card game?
Why aren't you making millions on Kickstarter, /biz?

god I love some good old fashioned capitalism
>>1091987
Because I don't know how to get started.
Seems like you'd need a lot invested(ie being a huge website such as them) in order to get that much money.
Might try something smaller tho

- keep your holes wet and lubed
- let them have a few pounds for free
- once they have a taste hit them with the pricing plan
- 50% more to shoot in your mouth

I have a compulsive spending habit - specifically, I buy games on steam that I never play or never finish. I spent hundreds of dollars last month. I'm working on trying to stay within a budget but the urge to spend is stronger than my willpower.
I've thought about trying to "hire" someone to be my friend on steam. They monitor my steam collection by checking out my profile and charge me a percentage of everything I buy. In addition, I'd owe him a free game regularly for his service. So if I buy a $60 game and I owe say, 15% of everything I purchase...

Attack the cause, not the effect
The cause of your problem is that you're a fucking loser who sits at home all day on Steam and you have nothing to do so you buy games
Jist fucking leave the house more. Pick up golf I don't know, go to the store and just eat ice cream all day do something
You just identified the problem. Why exactly CANT you just stop doing this?
You're clearly aware of it.
>>1091746
I'm picky about games so I'll pick one up and if I don't like it, I just move on to the next. I also have a relatively short attention span but always want to be playing one. I don't know if compulsive is the right word but I feel like if someone else saw whenever I bought a new game and they billed me for it it might be embarrassing enough to stop.

Internships included. How'd it go?
I have a summer software dev internship coming up and i'm nervous af. To make things worse, it's at a real well-to-do tech area. Imagining my first day:

>everyone stares

Start working towards putting yourself in more social situations now. I doubt it would be anything like that, the other interns will be similar to your classmates.

People that don't know you won't put forth the effort to understand you if you're a bit unusual. Basically just do what you're told, smile where appropriate, and try to get on people's good side. If you don't talk much, then you have less spaghetti on your hands. I'm a pretty talkative person but I think my coworkers at my old co-op probably aren't really aware of that, because it's safer to keep that for when I'm alone with my friends.
Also, have a sense of humor about mistakes. Being self-deprecating too often can make people uncomfortable, but if somebody jokes about something harmless that you messed up, just laugh and say something like "yeah not one of my finest moments" or whatever. Everybody can connect on minor embarrassments and it'll make you seem more human with minimal effort.

Hello /biz/ recently I've been getting interested in this sort of field and I've been thinking of majoring in finance. However I would like to know about the math of it all. I'm pretty decent in it although it's a very boring subject to me which discourages me. I've seen most financial majors only need to take up to a calculus 1 class or a calculus for business. I've already took statistics (got a B).
Anyways most people say all you need is basic math really once your out so I guess I just wanna ask is this true? Is calculus really important?...

I majored in accounting and we did the introductory finance course which covered thinks like time value of money, bonds, annuities/ perpetuities.
It was pretty easy, most of the math was high school level or the data analysis (fancy name for entry level uni statistics) which you said you got a B in.
Not sure what later courses would be like.
As for accounting, a large portion of my course was tax/financial reporting issues, which was fairly irrelevant to stock traders outside pre or post tax dividends and capital gains tax. (I'm in Australia).
