Can this be the business thread?

I have an online job board but am having trouble finding posters obviously since I just launched and am like pagerank 10 million.

Would it be a bad idea to get job listings from similar sites and message the recruiters telling them I would like to post their listing for free on my competing job site? That way I have some content for people to look at.

I'm also finishing building a recruiting webapp similar to recruiterbox. Basically a CMS recruiting platform where they can add questions and make recruirements and add many positions. You see a lot of the bigger websites use something like this on their careers page. How could I find clients for that as well? Just email some companies using competing software and say that I do a better job and am cheaper?

No. Even though I have sold hundreds of copies of my books, only like 5 people have ever left reviews. Lowest was 4 stars. If anyone gives me bad reviews the plan is to buy some 5-star ones if I have to.

we're too smart for that here. have you looked at the world lately? what the fuck makes you think that's your best option, because society holds "business owners" in such high regard at the present time? unless you actually have a good idea (you dont), fuck off and kill yourself.

I am thinking about taking £50k from my granparents and buying some businesses. A sandwich shop (£12k) and a convenience store (35k) that sells alcohol and cigarettes.
Both have low rent, only one has a business rate (think tax), and both have existed for several years. Cafe is on a busy high street and the the convenience store is in a major student area.

I can make my mum work in the sandwich shop and I can work in the convenience store myself, until I find some indians/muslims to work in it for for minimum wage.
I think I can get 2 - 4k gross profit per month.

LITERALLY GIVE ME ONE GOOD REASON WHY I SHOULDN'T DO IT.

p.s. 50k is nothing to my granparents, so if I fuck up it's not a big deal.

>>10205032
If you were richer than me you wouldn't be fucking around buying a convenience store, let alone asking /biz/ whether you should do it. You wouldn't go through all that effort in a shit business for a measly 2k-4k a month for that level of risk. You even inherited money and you're still poor. You're a spendthrift retard who wants something for nothing by buying an established "business", and it's going to end badly for you.

I enjoy reading about Anons' successful businesses, even if some of you are LARPing. It's inspiring knowing that even autists on 4chan can start a successful business from the ground up.

I have an artistic talent but I lack the drive to market myself and sell my artwork, but I think if I ever start a business it'd be based around that.

okay anons I really need your help on this one
I am a second year finance and accounting masters student, I should get my masters degree two years from now if everything goes well, I am a good student, not top of my class but I get shit done and I'm confident in my ability, also I would like to add that the school I'm in is considered among the top 5 in my country in its respective field
right now I'm on vacation, and I was able to land a very nice paid internship for the rest of this summer, the company is an american multinational and one of the biggest in the world in its field, the thing is they were looking for a long term intern to form and turn into a full time employee, but they accepted me even though I'm not available long term because they said they were impressed by my CV and my good grasp of english(kinda rare in my country)
they said that I can work these two months and at the end I can decide if I want to continue with them or get back to finish my degree, but I can't have both ways, also I would like to add that I will be working in the finance department but the job is a low level one, and isn't really related to my education, as of the starting job atleast, maybe in the future I will get promoted

I'm torn, I really can't decide which option is the safest and most rewarding long term
