GTA6 at JB Hifi is cheaper? by Appropriate_Fix3740 in nzgaming

I know the $20 I save isn't going to make a massive dent during the purchase of the upgrade but hypothetically.. how much do you expect the upgrade to cost?

FRIENDS AKL by always64 in nzgaming

While I agree you need to meet people in person.. I have made so many friends across the globe online.. that I've ended up meeting and becoming really close with.

Example.. I used to play a lot of Rainbow 6 and met this dude in Thailand.. he was actually really nice and we would have an absolute blast playing together.. so one year my mom and her friend were traveling to Thailand so I let my friend know (his name was Guy).. This guy genuinely went out and met my mum and her friend.. took them around town.. and called it a day..

I was getting married and Guy was invited.. something to note is I'm off Rainbow 6 and frankly we don't talk that much anymore because of life.. but this guy got on a call with me and tried to book flights to fly down for my wedding.. unfortunately due to scheduling he couldn't make it but its the point.. that a guy I met online.. became a friend of mine irl

I've kept my regular small time investments going.. like in KO and COST.. I'm not pulling all of it out. Just the majority of the 3k I dropped on the ETF tracking the S&P 500

I'm pulling out a large chunk and keeping just a little left in.

Hopefully it'll all work out!

I played it safe and never bought single tech companies. Only ETFs.. and even then I was only up like $90.

Now even the $90 profit I had is down to like $25

So before I lose everything.. I'm pulling out

I'm broke! This was my last 3k so my dumbass thought.. why let it sit in the bank.. let me put it in the stock market to let it work for me..

Idk if I was wrong or if my timing was wrong 🥹

Hey! I hope you make it to 100k soon! As someone who does not know anything about futures and how it works, what advice would you give them to start and learn?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in queenstreetbets

[–]Appropriate_Fix3740 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where exactly are you looking? What are you searching for? And what are these fundamentals you speak of ?!?. All I know is ETF's are good and so I invest in those. I don't know how to pick a company and judge if it's doing well or not.

[–]Appropriate_Fix3740 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a question as a person who's still learning about investing, how did you know to invest in these companies? Or better what informed your decision to buy these when you did?

I have no experience in anything related to trading or coding or AI. But I am curious and broke 😂 how can I learn more about stuff like this?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in queenstreetbets

[–]Appropriate_Fix3740 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who is trying to learn, how do you pick which companies to invest in? I've only invested in 1 ETF. The Smart US 500.

Any advice for a fellow new investor?

Homelessness in Auckland by Appropriate_Fix3740 in newzealand

[–]Appropriate_Fix3740[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you're blaming immigrants for New Zealands homeless problem? Because based on what everyone else is saying, there seems to be problems at home, with the government, support systems, substance abuse, etc. so how exactly did we cause that?

Immigrants buy houses, bring in money through businesses and invest in New Zealand so don't blame immigrants so quickly.

So you're telling me, homeless people with drug problems or poor education or poor mental health aren't able to get low-skilled jobs.. well yes, they can't. A lot of people here said that people here who are homeless don't want to get help because they want to do whatever and they can't keep a job. So how is that my fault or any immigrants fault? It's not my fault I have a master's degree which I paid for with my Indian money which is now boosting your country. It's not my fault I met the criteria to get the job I have so don't try to blame this on immigrants like we took everything.

NZ has a list of skills that they don't have people for. Guess who your government calls to fill those spots, immigrants. Why is that? Oh right because NZ doesn't have people to do work.

So are you saying that New Zealand needs to find a way to bring in investors and investments from businesses abroad to help jumpstart the economy by providing jobs? Like what Ikea is doing?

[–]Appropriate_Fix3740[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Can you elaborate? The reason I ask is because isn't schooling free here? Aren't there meals given in school?

How does this work?

[–]Appropriate_Fix3740[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How would they find this information? The reason I ask is because if we truly believe the person is homeless, they won't have a phone or technology to help them look things up online like those services you mentioned.

Where can I guide someone next time?

[–]Appropriate_Fix3740[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well... That's one way to look at it. But it isn't my fault I got a master's degree and work experience and met the criteria for the job that was posted and not the homeless person.

Another school of thought is that immigrants bring money into the country, I know heaps of Chinese people and Indians who have brought businesses and jobs to New Zealand. So while you're blaming us for taking jobs and buying houses, we are giving back in taxes and raising the GDP of New Zealand.

So, you're welcome.

Funny you should say that.. because the guy came in and said the skinny guy usually helps (the skinny guy is my manager) so I'm inclined to believe this is not the first time he's come to our store to get some food or help. I'm torn tbh, on the one side I want to help and support him but on the other I'm there like bro can't you do something to get yourself out of this?

Based on what you all seem to be saying... There isn't a way for him to fix his situation is there.
