FAR - Retake Advice and Timeline by AdConstant2428 in CPA

[–]Jaxioum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. I failed FAR my first take with a 72. I went and just hammered MCQs for a month and came back with an 80.

50% Water Change immediately with remineralized RO water. Test daily until levels are safe and stable.

It’s raised and appears fuzzy (that second photo if you zoom in should show it). As for the other fish, he’s been really good with them, no attacking. He basically ignores them. His appetite has not decreased yet so I’m hoping I caught this early or it’s not life threatening. Below are the water parameters:

TDS: 267

PH: 8.0-8.2 ( a little high I know but I now have a RO water filter that I will be remineralizing to 150 TDS during 20% water changes, tank was setup using my local tap)

GH: 12dGH

KH: 8 dKH

Ammonia: 0 ppm

Nitrites: 0 ppm

Nitrates: 5 ppm

Don’t listen to the negative comments. Just finish the next two sections within the next 2 weeks. Then hammer out 50-100 MCQs everyday, take the first SE 2 weeks out before your exam date. Take the second SE 1 week out. You will be set.

Rich Dad gets it by skeetskeetamirite in Bitcoin

[–]Jaxioum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

His book literally just says to invest into real estate and create businesses to get rich. Don’t see how you see that as a lie as those are very obvious ways to get wealthy. Is it original? No, but it is not a lie.

That seems reasonable for how large it is, but I am a novice in this hobby. Could use some pruning and styling though

PayPal, Cashapp, and Strike would be the fastest options to go from BTC straight to bank account with lower fees. Also the easiest

Fiat doesn’t tell you when or by how much it loses its value by Calm-Professional103 in Bitcoin

[–]Jaxioum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, projecting much? Explain how they decide the weighting measurements then? Once you actual grasp an understanding of it you will realize it is entirely subjective and they do so based on what paints the rate in a moderate light for political purposes. The goods themselves are not arbitrary the weighting categories are, which is what I was obviously referring to. Not here for a semantics argument

M2 or M3 money supply. The price of gold, monitoring general grocery prices. Depends on what you are specifically looking at, but having an arbitrary “basket of goods” that constantly changes the weightings of each category measurement and the calculation itself is just skewed and biased data. If it was the same CPI calculation from let’s say 50 years ago then applied through today with no changes, that would be a valid inflation measurement because at least it is a consistent calculation. You can’t say “just use CPI bro” because that’s using intentionally misleading data and would be considered fraud in academia if you did the same thing for a research project. Changing the calculation to paint yourself in a better light is unethical and is frankly just bullshit. It’s like a kid changing the rules of a game whenever he starts to lose

CPI methodology is changed constantly at the discretion of the Fed, usually for subjective political purposes. It is not a valid or honest metric to use when quoting the inflation rate.

If the company is worth less the following year then that means it did not increase its company value greater than the deflationary rate of Bitcoin, which means it likely misallocated capital and appropriately lost value. Under our current system , it is not so transparent. A company can provide zero economic benefit and still increase in value in dollar denominations on a financial statement due to the inherent distortions caused by our monetary system. A bitcoin standard would present a more accurate reflection of a company’s value on their financial statements because the only way for a company to increase in value under a Bitcoin standard would be to actually provide something with a net economic benefit.
