    Just wanted to show a real time trade. I just bought the stock ADPT for $9.60 a share. It is down around 65% today because of bad earnings/bad news yesterday afternoon. I bought a couple hours earlier than normal (I normally wait til near the market close) because I think I stand a strong chance...

    You Will Never Be A Millionaire!

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I have to chime in and agree that doing nothing for the rest of my life would be pretty boring. I've worked hard my entire life. I've been working in some capacity (job or business) for 15 years. I'm considering selling my business after this Christmas season. I was going to do nothing and just...

    Definitely a good way to avoid the tax issues. I'm personally doing it outside of retirement funds so it creates a little extra income per month.

    Trading fees are $14 a trade ($7 to buy $7 to sell). Taxes are short term capital gains so taxed at ordinary income tax rates. The $1,560 is after fees but not taxes. If income tax is 30% on the money than I made 1k on 5k invested in 3 months. That's still a 20% return in 3 months.

    No special permission required. You just have to put in a sell order for the after hours market. Very rarely do I end up selling it after hours but I keep an eye on it.

    Correct. Big moves down I buy then sell the following day after rebound.

    I've been using this investing process on and off for the last couple of years. The results have been quite good but I hadn't really been putting in the time to do it. The last 3 months I've been using it regularly and the results have been quite impressive. First, what is the process? I...

    Ecommerce Monthly Contest. Who sells the most?

    I personally wouldn't participate. There is only one person's numbers I am wanting to beat, and those are mine from last year. There are tons of people doing better than me and tons that do worse. If someone is grossing a million a month awesome but my comparing my revenue to his doesn't do...

    Is insiders worth it?

    HOT! 
    It all comes down to the application of what you learn. If you are willing to apply what you learn then yes the insiders is well worth the cost. If you are going to read things but never apply anything than it will be a waste of your money.

    I only shipped internationally using their global shipping program. You basically send the product to their warehouse in Kentucky and they forward it to the customers country. It's simple for the seller and can bring in some extra sales.

    It's more likely that both listings are from middlemen rather than being the actual manufacturer. I prefer aliexpress over alibaba because the purchasing process is just so much simpler on aliexpress. If the margins are there get some product ordered and see how they sell. You can afford to give...

    Just a quick update on my business. We have topped 2015's gross sales numbers this year as of last week. With the busiest 2 months of the year remaining we should end the year between 2-2.5x our sales last year. Just a little over a month until Black Friday... are you ready?

    There is a huge difference in speed of the phone just unlocking between a 6 and 6s... As in noticeably different. To say there is no difference between an iPhone 4 and a 7 is completely inaccurate. If you are happy with your iPhone 4 then awesome but to say a 6 year old phone functions the same...

    The majority of the seller on eBay are on there cause it's easy and because you only pay if the item sells. There really isn't much correlation between the amount of sellers on eBay and the bids being higher that I have seen. The best way to do it would be test out keywords at certain bids and...
