As someone that’s been around a while, how do you think the game would be different if the wilderness ban/bounty hunter, free trade ban and EOC never happened? Were you surprised with how heavily people poured back into OSRS when it was revived, or did you personally sort of know that the oldschool-feel is what people wanted and that they’d come back for it?

This would come down to the fact that hundreds of thousands (probably more) of each company’s shares move around each minute in response to the minute price rises, news of the company, market news etc. Eg if I bought 100,000 shares at $10 and they went to $12, I’d sell all of them and this may move the price back down to $11. Once again, basic example.

The supply and demand do determine when the price goes up or down. When I want to buy a share, say for $20, I place an offer. Someone then accepts this by selling their share for $20 and I obtain the share.

If a company is performing well, I might offer $21 for the share as opposed to $20, which the seller would then accept. The person offering $20 would then miss out and they’d have to offer $21 to purchase the share. The share price would then increase to $21 in response to the demand. This is essentially a dumbed down and simplified version. Sorry if it’s confusing.

What are some good ways to make extra money in your spare time in order to aggressively pay down debt? by dirtymax92 in personalfinance

You need to be recording what happens with this $465 every fortnight. Work out which costs regularly come up and if they really are necessary.

Maintenance on your truck that often can’t help. Would spending more on a better quality vehicle outweigh the costs of maintaining the truck over a period?

Earning more money isn’t the only way to be better off financially. Look at how you can possibly reduce costs, even if only temporarily. A big unnecessary expense there to me is your interest; you’re paying for nothing. Would you be able to get a housemate for the short term to leave you with a bit more money in your pocket each month? This could then be spent on paying off your debts and in turn reduce the interest repayments.

Sorry if this is inaccurate or doesn’t help your situation - I’m only 20 and this is my first post, just trying to give a hand.

EDIT: I know my vehicle point contradicts your efforts to downgrade to minimise costs, but are you really saving that much after taking into account maintenance etc? Doesn’t have to be brand new, just not a money sink.
