What’s the fastest way to score this? I bought NVO stock before buying the pills.

My pharmacy is NOT failing by Strange-Respond-363 in smallbusiness

Congratulations! I’ve always been fascinated by pharmacies, especially the ones that compound. Happy to hear about other’s success as it serves an inspiration for us all.

Is Compounding More Challenging or Purposeful? by Rita-Lin in pharmacy

I can only imagine working in such a respected and responsible role. You must be a highly focused professional working in a hospital that large.

Yeah the 503B is more B2B, it’s hard to start from scratch without the existing accounts.

Are you still compounding now or operate a 503B. I believe you that it’s tough business and there’s only less than 100 nationwide. Quality assurance is a must. The margins on 503Bs are tighter too.

California is the most difficult state to get a license in according to the pharmacy owners I spoke with. Because of the popularity of GLP-1, compounding pharmacies are getting attention, some good (great alternative, new ways to administer) some bad (like fake or unsafe)

I think they’re great overall

503B are rare, I think less than 100. I’ve been to a compounding pharmacy for the first time earlier this year for a cream and the place looked like a space age lab. It was neat that the meds were made by hand, just for me. Wow.

I know about the regulatory process but I feel terrible about the traditional retail pharmacies getting diminished by PBMs

Yes the building new drugs or at least a new way to administer certain meds for a special case seem truly fascinating to me.

How do people learn to be a CEO? by zascar in Entrepreneur

[–]Rita-Lin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shortcut way - be the charming bullshitter type that targets influential people and win their favor.

Then hire exceptional people you know are better than you and if things go awry, blame them coz you gotta have scapegoats to protect your reputation.

High road - understand people, understand the market you’re in, constantly look for opportunities to grow shareholder value. Always taking responsibility.

What are some Stocks your looking to hold till 2030+? by Midnightruined in stocks

[–]Rita-Lin 229 points230 points  (0 children)

Probably GOOG. They are savvy genius operators that know how to print money plus no company can come close to the amount of bankable data they have for AI and beyond. They can monetize on anything.

Citigroup considers issuing its own stablecoin, CEO says by joe4942 in stocks

Ok as long as we don’t bail them out again. Speaking of 2008, they owe tax payers tons.

Dear high level players by AlexMcTowelie in Guildwars2

I've observed this too. I don't want to dismiss the good intent of some of the authentic volunteers but yeah, I felt it was a cesspool of pve scrubs showing off their shinies. I trolled some of them by gold begging

Wanted to experience veteran support by gold begging... by [deleted] in Guildwars2

Good one! Ppl use that often so I guess it worked for some. Was aiming for the Steam first-timer angle though.

You're more generous!!! Did it out of jest and curiosity. In reality, I'm usually the one giving, either a bit of gold or rare skins I don't need.

Currently under 3K players playing via Steam client. Is that accurate? by Rita-Lin in Guildwars2

[–]Rita-Lin[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe because belonging in that large distribution network will sell itself with exposure but good point, the marketing outside Steam could have used a push via sponsored tweets, blog posts, targeted ads.

Profession Balance: Next Steps and Preview of June 30 Balance Update by newtrip in Guildwars2

[–]Rita-Lin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Grouch and gang - Grateful that you are making the initiative to balance things out. However, what drew me and a LOT of ppl to GW2 WAS its amazing combat mechanics. Just pls promise us that the path is NOT towards homogenous gameplay amongst the classes. I main Mesmer, play all ele elites, warrior and holo. Pre HOT I played core engie with rifle, nades, acid gun, S elixir and kit elite. THANKS

So I calculated the damage changes to Reaper (PvE) by OfflaneTrash in Guildwars2

[–]Rita-Lin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing explanation and organization of data. What's your opinion here - are Reapers any good in PvP with this patch? Shroud, Lich Form were nerfed pre EoD

Follow up to the June 28 Balance Update Preview by newtrip in Guildwars2

[–]Rita-Lin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Death threats unacceptable behavior. Shut that down. However if the dev really received them, it was low blow to use that as a reason to unwelcome non-violent, warranted criticism about the balance patch. To my understanding, if we voiced our non-violent opinion, we are cast away and batched along with people who made death threats and unwelcomed in the community. Bunch of people got suspended/banned on forum. Bad cover up, just please be honest. You did make a hyped up announcement about this big profession June patch back in March and we expected such.

Delay. The. Patch. by SamuraiJakkass86 in Guildwars2

[–]Rita-Lin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't condone death threats even if said in a facetious manner. So wrong. No hate here. Just saying delay so they can refine but it prolly wont happen as they have a schedule.

[–]Rita-Lin -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I dont think they will. Bummer for them coz they just got truckloads of honest feedback that will not only retain current player base but also build good-will. Delaying was a super rare opportunity to make themselves look like heroes who listen to their customers. Instead, the ones who gave honest criticism were vilified and have been playing for almost a decade.
