>discovered bitcoin in early 2013 when it was $100
>didn't recognize it's true value, only bought a few hundred dollars worth
>mfw looking at the price now

Life is a cruel joke and I'm a retard destined to fail.

Fellers, what's Monday gonna look like, realistically?

>he thinks retail is coming back after getting raped in 2021
Lmao

>dude just follow your passion! then you can earn a living without it feeling like work!
>wtf, why did you follow your passion? you should have picked something practical that employers need, like coding
>wtf, why did you learn to code? that became oversaturated just as you finished graduating, you should have picked a trade
>wtf, why did you pick a trade? that industry is rife with nepotism and you're going to destroy your body, you should have picked a career that requires a degree so you can eliminate the competition
>wtf, why did you go to law school? that industry is oversaturated now, you should have networked more when you were younger because who you know is all that matters

I have a measly 4k that I've turned into a measly 5k so far... Should I take out as many loans as I can to start trading with? It's not too late right?
I mean what's the worst that can happen? I declare bankruptcy and lose 5k? I might as well have zero already

What do you do for work? I'm a fullstack software cuck and I want to switch careers (can't get a job)

>crypto to crypto is a taxable event
>I've made several defi trades over the years
>they are taxable despite me losing money on them

Lol. Lmao even.

Is it worth it to go to school for something like Software Engineering still? It would only take me two years to complete as I have an AA, but I’m afraid by that time a good majority of software devs will be getting ass raped by AI. Am I better off just grinding up through IT starting at help desk? Or should I just abandon the technology field all together and learn a trade. I need to know how to prepare for the 4th industrial revolution.

>most normies only stream of income if their monthly wage
>no passive income whatsoever
What is the trick to live like this and don't go insane? How do they so it

Where to put $90k cash? TSLA?

Is it really worth becoming an CPA? Do accountants actually make a lot of money?

>WAAAAAH WAAAAH I only make 300k a year and I have to sit around doing nothing most of the day ahhhhh the inhumanity!
Why are firstworlders like this?

If growing up means being a sub-servient faggot, Ill stay where I am.

I really feel like crypto is dead this time. A lot of those FUD videos were never really debunked. I used to have almost 250k, now I have like a tenth that; basically AVAX and a bit of HBAR, ADA, and ALGO. My ETH shitcoins are utterly worthless not even worth selling with gas prices.

It's unironically over. I am just glad I only invested money I was fine losing.

I got promoted into middle management for being pic related
How can I profit from this, and also not be a total asshole like many middle managers are?
I have a very small team, 5 people total.
Its a transportation company (logistics and shit)

I want to rip my face off constantly. Didn't make it last run, still had some decent money, but let it drain to nothing because I kept expecting a recovery. Fucking losing it.

>>50896004

About to quit my white collar corporate job of 2 years without giving them any notice. Ask me anything

Yeah it's normal if you can get into a "big" tech company. Big corporations with big budgets will blow away any kind of money a smaller tech company can offer you. I just took my comp from 160k to 275k by studying leetcode for 2 months and moving from a local tech company to a larger, national corp. Not everyone can start out at these top dollar companies straight out of college, and that's fine, but the salary difference is insane once you crack that barrier. And this is only in the USA btw, the labor market here is overshadowed by google/apple/facebook etc so it brings up everyone's compensation as a result

Hey guys, I know I am seeing a lot of back-and-forth on this topic, but I really need to push back and raise some red flags here.

Having an on-site office presence is foundational to our ability to drive efficiencies in a corporate landscape. It is in our DNA. Sure, there is no 'one size fits all' or silver bullet and some are just boilerplate solutions, leveraged to the hilt and really only keeping us at a 30,000-foot-view of things. Being on-site, however, really allow us to get better granularity, find better directional-indicators, or loop back and dive deep into some critical issues on a go-forward basis.

I think if you all start spending more time in the office again, you'll find yourself trending toward the positive, but you'll have to keep an eye on the puck. Gut through it, reduce thrash, and let's stay in lock-step on this. Yes, we will synergize!

What's the root cause of the hatred of Corporate office spaces? I'll put my layman's hat on and guess that it comes from movies such as Office Space and Dilbert cartoons. But we all know that these are fictional spaces, and real office spaces allow us to touch base in a much more efficient manner.

I have to time-box this comment, as I have a hard-stop in a moment when I will have to jump onto a call. So, just one more point that I want to cover-off on: let's socialize the idea of having more office presence and loop back to see whether we're being more impactful. From a management standpoint, I think that we can get the traction to do it.

So, net/net, ignore the naysayers, sidebar the folks that are stuck in the weeds, and don't waste cycles or bandwidth on folks that don't align strongly with this mission. Try it out, and we'll have another touch point in a little while to see if we've moved the needle. Remember, our north star hasn't changed. We're still championing our core values remotely and we will only do it better in person.

If you need me, I will be online again in a bit.

Bitcoin has a 1MB blocksize you fucking nigger retard. It cannot scale, which is why theres 80 different other bastard tokens that were born from it. Bitcoins blockchain technology is literally the first that was “allowed” it exist, even though DigiCash was first and was more similar to OpenCoin. Bitcoin is antiquated shit, it’s a a peer to peer pajeet payment network. Literally only niggers use it as payment in Africa and over 60% of mining is controlled by 1 single fucking chink that literally made the worlds richest billionaire chink disappear. You dumb niggers always ignore the double spending ffs you’re a brainwashed retard. You will never beat the banks, decentralized finance has always been an experiment.
