JEPI seems to be the one you want. his math isn't wrong, you just misunderstood. if he invests 300k into JEPI the payout on average would be 30k PER YEAR, which monthly would be the 2500/month. proof is in the pudding. so start buying that stock every paycheck until you buy 300k worth

Its honestly baffling how so few get this, 99% of jobs can be taught within just a few short weeks to do well in. Finding someone capable of doing the tasks is not an issue, the issue is finding someone who won’t grind the entire thing to a halt and make everyone miserable just from their presence alone. And in the case of a PM their entire job is literally just making sure everyone else is doing theirs, and one of the best ways to do that is by being someone that others actually want to be around. There’s a reason why the negative, micromanaging fuckup who doesn’t even know what their own job is aside from the title has become such an archetype.

Yup. That goes for pretty much everyone on the team, even technical roles (outside of the most bleeding edge cases). In a lot of cases, it's not even the one person's fault; you have a perfectly decent new hire having to deal with a busted culture driven by people who enjoy (or see job security in) being assholes. Shit's the self-driving car problem. Jobs can be either:
>Discrete tasks broken up from on high and carried out to the letter, with clear instructions and expectations and impenetrable firewalls between entities
or
>Artisan works where small teams working in synergy build something singlemindedly
Anything in between is bound for disaster. You can have the former working underneath the latter with a strict interface, but the moment expectations start getting fudged because "X is a good guy I trust him" or "I don't care how Y performed he creeps me out", you're hosed.

>don't forget to do your mandatory diversity training!

I like those, I ask all the questions that make people uncomfortable and secretly redpill the normies. The trick is to have the answer in the question.

>is it true that the LGBTQ community is more than 60% pedos?
>if the LGBTQ community seeks to destroy gendered stereotypes isn't the whole women empowerment (women in IT) program working against it?
>if were to not offend someones subjective truth shouldn't they also respect the offenders subjective truth?
>if it is the minority group that is always the oppressed than why is it that despite jews being less then 1% of the population they still hold the top 60% of powerful 1% of positions?

I actually have a nice flow chart for these discussions and the likely answers they give. I once went into one of these "training" sessions and they ran a poll of what people felt towards the lgbtq community at the start 98% of respondents felt positive towards it, afterwards they ran the poll again and after I asked the questions it was 20% positive towards the community. HR was super pissed. Most people are just afraid of the consequences of going against the narrative but once you stand up they are no longer afraid. It's fucking weird how so many people live under this invisible tyranny and don't realise it.

Through lots of networking. I was in a shitty job and found a professor that liked a project I did on my freetime, went on to be mentored by him a little bit, used a project he guided me through to connect to this company I now work with, which I've been bugging for years. What was different this time was I actually had work completed and showed I can do shit and am very persistent. Plus the time I spent following that industry I gained a foresight and we actually were doing the EXACT SAME RESEARCH PROJECT when I had contacted them, so that helped.

Choose something that interests you beyond monies and do your own project in it, network and advertise said project/product, do a collab. All throughout that, just message people on linkedin with a good profile.

[Anonymous No.51611037]

Economic Development is the only work I've done where I've felt fulfilled. Because of the nature of the with, you typically fall into it and it's based on soft skills. I would highly recommend everybody look into it. You can shape your area a bit while making money. Alternatively you find work for a business like MidAmerica or a chamber of commerce. It's really a career path that is going to result in you making tons of money while being very fulfilling and rewarding. There's a job for every type of person in it. It's great. Every area has different problems and different ways to solve them so nobody really expects much out of you for quite some time so you have lots of time to learn as well as time to impress. Not only that but everything moves at a snails pace due to being tied to the area government because of incentive structures.

Highly recommend this field of work for anybody with a little bit of analysis skills, people skills, but particularly both. A salesman can go very far in this field by just being charismatic. You can also just sit in your dark room looking up information all day long. It is awesome.

24 yo American woman here. After I graduated from Wellesley I needed to find myself, and decided to forgo yoga training and travel the world and write about my experiences and the impact they have on my life. (I haven't been outside the country since I volunteered in Costa Rica for a week in during the summer in High School, where I learned how hard some people have it).

I've been all over Europe (s/o to Truow!) and I'm currently in Barcelona, where I love the incredible architecture, the breathtaking art history, the luscious music, the exquisite tapas, the vibrant nightlife and the chance to explore my sexuality with the interesting people I meet. The freedom is like nothing I've experienced before. Everybody should experience this, and I think there's no doubt that travel makes you a richer person.

I recently got this tattoo in cool parlor after clubbing in Kreuzberg (in Berlin) (this is me on a beach in Morocco), which I think defines the kind of character I want to be. It reminds me never to take things for granted because we all face challenges, and no matter how hard life can seem, you need to stay grounded.

For most people, retirement is a fantasy, like winning the lottery. They'll retire once they can complete a giant wish list, like a spoiled child asking for Christmas presents.

>Oh, when I retire I'll need $5M so I can have luxuries that are one step above the luxuries I enjoy now.

While I do think some people can get carried away with the miserliness, most people are way too focused on needing some giant fortune. Being retired can be a lot cheaper than working, because it's expensive to be close to jobs. I sold my $270k house in the city and bought a $45k house in the country. No mortgage. That's $1300 a month that I can spend on whatever I want now. On top of that, everything is cheaper here. Groceries, gasoline, the dentist, everything. Oh yeah, almost no black people either.

You do need money, however, and here is my strategy. I have three categories of investments, which I consider low, medium, and high risk/volatility.

>Low risk: Rental houses. I moved into my first house with an FHA loan and 3.5% down. After a couple years, I saved up a 5% conventional down, bought another house and moved into it. Rented out the first one. Repeat as desired. You may think you cannot buy a house as an owner/occupier then rent it out, but my mortgages only required me to live there for one year before being able to rent it. When looking at houses to buy, I aimed to make sure the rent would at least make me cash flow breakeven, before maintenance and vacancies. Which meant in reality, I was somewhat cash flow negative in the first couple years of renting a house out. This sounds bad, but has been overwhelmed by capital appreciation of the houses, and principal reduction in the mortgages.

>Medium risk: Dividend yielding stocks. I've collected enough dividend yielding stock to generate $1k a month in cash flow. Mostly big names, check the dividend aristocrats, although I have some oddballs for yield, like QYLD and ARI.

[Anonymous No.51623039]

>>51622938

>High risk: Crypto. I hodl some BTC and sell some whenever it doesn't feel bad. Think everyone here is familiar with this part.

>Taxes (filing single): 40k of long term capital gains and qualified dividends are taxed at 0%. Standard deduction is $13k, for a total of $53k you can make without paying any payroll or income taxes. Also, at this income level, you are poor and the government will pay for most of your health insurance through the ACA.

If you think $53k is poorfag status, try it with no mortgage, no taxes, and minimal healthcare costs. I go from traveling around the country and having fun, to getting worn out and going home for a couple weeks to relax and work in the yard. Then I get stir crazy and think up some fun shit to do and go do it. Awesome lifestyle, I highly recommend.

Thats just standard B4 training and orientation days to convince you everything is going to be ok, after the 3 or so days are up they are pressed into the meat grinder.

Could be any consultancy role; software, accounting, business etc.

Imagine, imagine waging, back breaking labor for minimum wage, subservience to authoritative bureaucracy and office sociopathy, modern day slavery, submitting oneself to daily ritual humiliation and conditioning, waking oneself up via blaring alarm and force feeding oneself, fueling oneself with caffeine, anti depressants and mindless consuming to cope, countless repetitive hours in back and forth polluted transportation in a tiny box on wheels, chasing status hoping to impress your conformist neighbors and indifferent hypergamous roasties, endless mind games and back stabbing competition, like a hamster stuck in a wheel, all while your entire lifestyle remains beholden to credit, bled dry and taxed to death at any opportunity, uncertain long term prospects and dim promises of old age retirement in a shifting degenerate society without tribal unity and solidarity, a subverted society with upside down moral values and no spirituality, that perverts your family and erodes your community via the circus of mass media controlled by a small clique of rootless oligarchs and their useful idiots minions, corrupt lobbies that wants you to feel guilty instead of proud, kneeling and masked, constant surveillance and no privacy anywhere all in the name of Freedom, in-group nepotism, PC censorship and absurd quotas everywhere all in the name of Equality, your eyes glued to a computer screen or a smartphone and your brain addicted to the meaningless dopamine rushes of consuming irrelevant digital data, either lonely or over socialized but always alienated and unfulfilled, prisoner to peer pressure, slowly kills your souls and numbs your mind, all in the name of short term profit & cosmopolitan greed, not living, barely existing, just surviving, a way of life so far removed from how nature intended humans to behave, over saturated fats poisoning your heart and plastics in the water destroying your body, objectively worse standards than a middle age peasant, just imagine
