I loving hate the term " influencer" . It's some rear end in a top hat on the Internet playing video games.

LLCoolJD posted:I have a channel on YouTube with over 1 million views, and it has earned several hundred dollars over a couple of years. I haven't posted a video in over a year. It has paid for a nice microphone, mic amp, and video capture software license, with cash to spare. I already had access to Adobe Suite so that was an expense avoided that the "career YouTubers" need to pay. The lack of entry barriers is what they find attractive, I think. If you want to be an actor, for example, the challenges you need to overcome are huge, so most people will actually smarten up and try something else. Youtube is easy to get into, since your unfunny video has the same potential reach as any other.

canyoneer posted:A dude on reddit got burned through a different flight scam. Would he actually be in trouble though? . If buying ticket was not illegal, and he didn't have a reason to suspect it was the result of a crime, he should be ok. The fact that he called him sketchy does make me suspect he was well aware of the fact this might be a criminal enterprise ad just got greedy.

kimcicle posted:They touch on this in a great documentary called "Betting on Zero." They are called nutrition clubs, aren't supposed to show any outward Herbalife branding (but can do it inside the store), and the true income is from getting people into the MLM scheme. Either the storefront owners go broke trying to recruit enough people to keep the MLM alive, or they are able to find a sucker to take over the storefront lease when they realize they aren't making any money. I just watched this documentary yesterday, and can absolutely recommend it as well. Really interesting

Krispy Kareem posted:Just that we were at our physical peaks. If you judge a species' apex by their condition independent of surroundings (i.e. culture), we don't get much better than hunter-gathering humans. Specifically what culture in particular are you talking about? The fossil record doesn't show Paleolithic men as healthy beasts, and there isn't a single "paleo man" (humans in America lived different than in Africa and so on).

axeil posted:https://twitter.com/MarketWatch/status/995381403830243328 Considering most Americans don't even have 500 bucks put aside for emergencies, it's hilariously tone deaf to just say "well, reality be damned, this is how it ought to be". Also, too bad they mean annual salary.

Verus posted:AMA about being a literal communist who works for an investment bank and invests 90% of my net pay Isn't that just as inconsistent as being a Nazi rabbi? quote:I am six episodes into the MLM podcast and holy poo poo, the one that ends with the successful 31 seller being told how to target poor people when they get their checks was 😫. Also lol at her saying the rich people don’t buy. Yeah, products considered desirable among lower class people that have high end markups probably aren’t super appealing to rich people. Dub. While it's an interesting topic, the hosts come off as being remarkably stupid, not to mention that the music they use as background is completely inappropriate for the tone they're going for. As for content... They don't really say anything that couldn't be explained in much shorter time, with way less ads. Redrum and Coke fucked around with this message at 03:43 on Nov 24, 2018 |

Splicer posted:Yeah I'm enjoying the MLM bits but the hosts and presentation are pretty bad. The ads crack me up because sometimes there's not a lot of segue so there's a few seconds where I think they're discussing another MLM. As someone who isn't in the US, I find it fascinating how many meal services are advertised in these podcasts. Is it because in the US there are a lot of "food deserts" so that this might be the only "healthy" option for people who live far from supermarkets, or is take out really popular in the middle class to the point that blue apron would be cheaper?

golden bubble posted:BWM: Signing a cognovit note (AKA confession of judgment) in order to get a loan. As another poster mentioned, they're not accepted in many jurisdictions, but NY doesn't give a gently caress. In general, small businesses can get really hosed with unfair contractual terms, since they're often understood by the courts to be savvy enough to avoid predatory deals (because they're not consumers). Of course this doesn't account for the differences in bargaining power that exist even among businesses, and we end with this.

Is there ever a good reason to lease a car privately (as opposed to doing it for a business)? In Holland car loans aren't very common, but lately I've seen a bunch of offers for leases.
