Weird discussion, but any tips for people that are generally unskilled, and don't have great people skills?

I've been grinding in retail ever since I was 16 (now 31). I've had times in my life where I did have a side hustle. Did photo retouching briefly, currently doing art via Patreon. But my ultimate downfall is simply getting overwhelmed talking to people. So its always been easier for me to just work a second retail job, even though its way more work and physically exhausting. I can handle the physical stress better than the mental stress. So my question is, for people who feel like they can be entrepreneurs despite a lack of skills in certain areas, how do you compensate? What's your advice for someone like me, that just can't make it on retail alone? I want to maximize the value of my time.

Property management company that I do work for is now asking me if they can pay me in 2 installments instead of 1. What terms and conditions should I make?

Hello. So I have a pressure washing biz. I have done only 2 jobs for a property management company in the past. Approx $1,000 worth of work total. $500 ea job. They asked me for an estimate on a property but they asked me if they can pay in 2 installments this time (idk if they mean only this time or from here on out). I don’t mind because I’m not starving but I don’t want this to be a thing where if I agree to this request they start saying 3 installments next time, and 4... you get it. So if I agree should I tell them that I’d like the 2 payments to be within like a 2 week time period or something along those lines? I’d like for them to continue giving me work. Thanks.

entrepreneur tip: "focus on selling people benefits rather then features of your product"

ive seen this mentioned on reddit several times where you sell benefits, not features the question is: * how will this product make me better? the question is not: * is this product made in china? but then, it begs the question: i am selling pet supplies like pet food, toys, etc. how can i focus on people benefits if im selling cat food? "this cat food tastes as good to you as it does to your cat"?

3x Leveraged ETF Long Term

1.I'm not understanding, people keep saying if the market drops 33% I lose all my money, even if it achieves new higher gains later. Why is this? If you don't sell, how do you lose money? Are they assuming you were margin called? Why would you sell if you're down 98% anyway.. 2. I'm reading if the market goes down 33% in a single day it's game over, but I still believe the logic of #1 so I don't understand how it would be, but additionally, the biggest single day drop ever was 12% and that was from covid. (s&p500 not the nasdaq 100 but still) $1 of TQQQ in 2010 is worth $100 today. What am I missing? Edit: I mean specifically high ranked 3x etfs like TQQQ

The pandemic has forced many businesses to digitize, and that shift has made three Japanese startup founders very wealthy. Their companies, which use AI to automate boring tasks, have seen their shares more than double in the past year. AI inside, which turns handwritten documents into electronic files, has jumped nearly 1,300% since its December 2019 listing, pushing its valuation to $1.8 billion. Its founder, Taku Toguchi (pictured) is now worth about $900 million. Freee K.K. and Rakus have likewise benefited from the rising demand for services that facilitate remote working and automation, up 538% and 2,700%, respectively, since their IPOs.

Rise of the federal funds rate

Since the drop in April last year there is an insane bullish market and with the new year stocks keep climbing and climbing. There is a lot of money in the market. The FEDs of the world keep printing money and the only opportunity for investors is to invest in stocks and real estates. That means for us as long as the funds rate is close to zero the stocks will rise. At some point the funds rate has to be increased due to inflation. My fear is that as soon as the funds rate increases there will be some kind of a shock in the market. This is the point where we will have to deal with a long lasting correction I guess. What do you guys think about that? Is there any other way to prevent an inflation while keeping the funds rate close to zero?

Would you like to hear my nonprofit idea?😊

I’m planning to start a nonprofit to provide home cooked meals for the homeless. However, I’d love to broaden this to be able to offer a full ‘Care facility’ where they can be washed, fed, clothed, counseled, and feel taken care of. Not quite a shelter. My plan is to collaborate with local barbers, doctors, dentists, etc. Helping people is my passion and mission. I just need help knowing how to start. I have a new LLC that I’d like to convert to non profit. Unless there is a way to have my catering business work along with the nonprofit. Any advice on any part of this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you💕

Germano and Giammaria Giuliani’s family made a fortune with remedies for hair loss, indigestion and sensitive skin. The family business is still making money after more than a century in operation, but what’s really driving the brothers’ wealth is a bet on another health-care company. The Giulianis hold stakes worth about $3 billion in Royalty Pharma, a New York-based firm that buys pharmaceutical royalties from academic institutions, research hospitals and drugmakers—including Pfizer. Its shares have surged 70% since an IPO last year. The Giulianis first invested in Royalty Pharma after meeting founder Pablo Legorreta in an airport. Link in bio for the full story.
