Sup /biz/ I was actually thinking about starting a social media company. The thing is I don't know where to look to find more information. I have a few thousand, I could probably hire some drive people, but I want to know relevant information. Start-up cost, time to break even, Yearly revenue, expenses. You know the essentials, and whether or not it's a viable business option. If anyone can give me any websites, books, or personal experience I would greatly appreciate it. I honestly don't know what would be more profitable marketing to business or marketing to individuals. So please send me in the write direction that doesn't involve sucking dicks. Thanks!

Look,
The dev people will want 200k a year.
Years of dev time to make anything close to a working product.
>>1033355
Ok I understand that developers to create a a website would be expensive. But I just need more resources to understand this business. I know there's a market for it, but I definitely need to know more. Start up cost, time to break even, annual revenue etc.

What the fuck?
You want me to pull sales figures out of thin air for an imaginary company, and then pull imaginary burn rate, and then pull imaginary overhead and calculate imaginary numbers?

Everyone will tell you to buy a million different things. The only thing you need to know is: DO NOT FUCKING BUY BONDS, EVER.
The next bubble is not in the stock market, it's a bond bubble. We're reaching peak government, hence the political clowns like Trump and Bernie Sanders coming out of the woodwork.

With low interest rates, the individual investor was forced to put their money into the stock market. The tech industry is sort of propped up on the low interest rates VC cash injection, so I think that a lot of overvalued tech stock might start plummeting if interest rates go up
How much do people actually make from blogs?
What's the consensus here on Danger and Play/Mike?
He made like $80k via royalties (based off of him saying 'around $100k') off of his self published book, which is honestly pretty terrible.
How much was he pulling pre book?

I have 200$ coming into an account on monday. I pln on pumping a small bit of my check in each month. Not looking to get rich quick, I know that's unrealistic. What I do want to do is invest in a few strong companies with decent dividends an forget about it. Eventually put my earnings into more stock and just let it grow over time.
Which companies are a reasonable starting point? I've been looking at Ford, BP, and a few legal dispensaries.
>I got your baby booties.
>>1033250
>200$
Please don't
>falling for the dividend meme
>yfw you make more off a high yield savings account than with dividen stocks

Not if you're in the states, we've been cucked for years
Why aren't you buying tax free Municipal bonds?
Do you not like free money?
Are you doing it? Been looking into bonds lately.
>>1033249
Because libor is so low I can make more money convincing 4chan to pump a penny stock for me.
Buy AStI by the way guys, it is definitely gonna blow up after the Consumer Electronics Show.
>>1033249
Opportunity cost and my tax rate isn't high enough to justify getting such low return.
I have a small portion of my portfolio index of junk bonds
I want to shovel snow for money. How much is a fair price to ask for shoveling and salting a driveway? 15, 10, 20? How many good ol american dollars would you pay?
Are you a grown ass man planning to shovel snow for people?
What the hell is wrong with you man. If you're over 18, get a job. If you're not, get off 4chan.
I'd give you like 5 bucks and then sue you for killing my lawn.
>>1041420
Thanks for the great response! I too thought asking for $20 would be a little to high so i am going to settle on $15
>>1041426
You don't have to have a fixed rate.
If he looks rich, charge $15. Poor? Charge $10.
Salt is free if they provide it, $3 if the don't. Car de iced? $3 extra.
How hard is it to buy a house?
>>1033248
Not hard if you have good credit
A down payment
and a source of income.
OR .. You're an all cash Chinese buyer.
>>1033248
Why would you want to buy a house? They basically only keep pace with the cost of living (since they're the major component thereof)
>>1033251
how hard is it for someone who makes a living entirely self employed?
So, when do I know the market is at a low so I can buy?
lol
Are you being serious?
>>1033224
why not?
"market" is such meme term.
It's all about individual stocks. even in a down turn, some will be going up, and some will keep going down forever. In a bull market, there will still be losers.
Unless you are investing for retirement, in which case timing doesn't matter. Just wait 40 years on indexs and mutual fund
I'm a business student, but literally have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to business. Anytime somebody is discussing markets, prices, current economic conditions, strategy, or any other business facet it all goes completely over my head. I'm at a university that only recently converted from a community college, so needless to say the business program is garbage. Are there any books that explain all of the business system or strategy that I can check out?
Pay attention in class. Stop looking at your cellphone.

Who here has watched Martin Shkreli's live stream finance tutorials? How are they in terms of educational value?
I just started watching one, it's 5 hours long, and I already feel like it'll be good.
I'm at pic related and he's saying that $3 million over 30 years off a $50k investment is not a lot, which I agree with. I'd be sad if over the next 30 years I only had $3m.
Finally someone with high monetary goals who can still spend 5+ hours dicking around on video games and shit.
>>1041132
you are asking biz if a millionaires advice is legit.
this board is not made of rich people, did you see the other threads.
can you provide link please so i can watch his streams.

>15 percent returns
There isn't an investment vehicle on earth that's going to guarantee a 15 percent annual return. NONE. It looks like that's the math he's doing to get there and it's complete bullshit. There's a reason this guy is being investigated by the feds and why he's looking at a lengthy prison term.
>>1042293
I dont see the word "guarantee" in that pic.
I don't know if this is the right place but I hope someone can help me.
How mandatory are things written in a will?
I mean I just want to be sure that I won't be given ANY form of funeral\burial when I die (I'd like to put it like "I want that NO money are spent on funerals or burials" or something similar)
Will be my family OBLIGED to comply to the term of the will?
What if they do me a funeral anyway? Who will check on them?
I don't know if it's important, but I live in a country who uses Roman Law
Pretty sure nothing you wish can or will be actually enforced.
Why do you anyway? You'll be dead senpai
>>1033134
>Pretty sure nothing you wish can or will be actually enforced.
I don't understand. What's the point of the will then?
>>1033138
To figure out how to legally proceed with your belongings.
If you say "I don't want anyone to host a funeral" I'm not sure how that would be enforced or even checked if they set up a funeral for you. It's not like funeral manager will verify the will before proceeding.

/biz/ what kind of career would a Master of Financial Engineering prepare me for? I've read all about them on university websites, but they never actually say anything concrete about what people do with the degree, they only list corporations that graduates wind up working at.
You maximise share price by having the perfect balance of debt and equity, maximising growth potential.
>>1033110
What's the difference between this and an MBA? I know MBA paired up with an engineering degree gets you an extreme amount of money.
>>1033167
The MBA doesn't teach nearly as much of the higher math and computational methods as an MFE. Having an engineering/science degree is basically a prerequisite for an MFE
I've been having problems with HP and it started off small but the more I interact with them the more I realize how fucked up the company is. I've filed complaints with every consumer protection agency imaginable and I've done whatever I can to settle my grievances with them personally. First of all they've changed my warranty date 8 times in 12 days, 8 fucking times. When first I called in they said I wasn't under warranty anymore it'd expired in June of 2015. I had the piece of mind to use the automated tool to check it online and it said March...

How much are you talking about in terms of damage?
If it's just a sub 1k computer or electronic, then you're better off just letting it go and making it a point to not doing any future business with them.
There's a reason their stock is completely tanking. That company will be dead in another five to ten years.
>>1033107
Look, HP will send a $1000 /hr lawyer to your small claims court in butt fuck no where and blow you the fuck out.
It's cheaper to spend $100,000 on legal fees than pay you $100- because if they paid you $100, people would learn you can sue HP and HP will pay you $100 to go away
HP are pleb tier consultants and make shit enterprise applications. That is all.
