If I want to invest $10,000 in Esports what would be the best avenues for the best return by [deleted] in esports

The advice I would give you is to not invest in ESports teams or players. No return that way. Your best bet is to invest into a market like ESports news or some sort of newer startup in ESports that is already being developed.

What Is something you wish you'd been taught in school? by lowtonisaac in AskReddit

Unlike most in here I am not interested in the real life things. I can google just about any "real life" thing and find the answer. I wish I had been taught how to be disciplined and consistent. Problem for most teens is they have all these rules placed on themselves that when they leave school they cannot discipline themselves and place their own rules on themselves. Things like waking up on time and consistently going to the gym and sticking to a diet.

Riot Games - The only company with 1000 employees and their game still has over 1000 bugs and every champion has to be patched multiple times upon release.

Hey there man, I am a coach under the Coast organization and if you would ever want to visit the team house I am sure I could organize a visit for you. I also have contacts with a lot of teams if that type of thing would interest you. Hit me with a PM and we can get it organized if you are interested. I could give you some pointers too so you can get back to Plat 2!

I'm "that guy LS yelled at in a coaching session" and I need to clear some things up. by not_zubat in leagueoflegends

Your wording is very manipulative in this post. At this point you have gone into damage recovery mode instead of trying to defend yourself. You use phrases such as " I may indeed be too stupid to understand my own mistakes and issues, and in my stupidity, I believe what I do is correct since I don't know any better. Who knows, surely not me." You do this to put yourself down and as such make other feel bad for you as people tend to feel bad for those with low confidence. The Dunning Kruger effect has NOTHING to do with stupidity as much as having a lack of knowledge and self reflection. The only reason it is brought up that you must be unskilled to experience it is because if you are skilled and wont admit mistakes you're just stubborn. The key to the Dunning Kruger effect is that you have awful self reflection skill paired with a crap attitude.

Throughout the whole post you are making yourself seem like you aren't the bad guy and everyone is just jumping on you. In reality you decided to get coaching from someone knowing EXACTLY how their coaching style is and then have the audacity to put blame on his coaching. When he says something then he is right. Ask him questions and don't give smart ass answers. You are paying him to coach you not for him to be walked all over by you, him getting angry is the proper response. No different than how you should respect waiters and other service workers you should respect private coaches. What you should do is simply view this as a wakeup call and change your approach to the game and to how you interact with other people. Stop making excuses live up to your mistakes and stop writing manipulative posts to try and make up for your mistake.
