@barragers 1/3 🧵 Here’s how these deals are structured. Owners find a group of (silent) investors to buy equity from the nightclub. Usually $75,000 = 1% profit share 28 units at $75,000 = $2.1 million invested for buildout, marketing, etc.

@slocumfortexas Our VP should advocate for changing H1B into a lottery system with a $100k price tag for the employers. This will cut down on the importation of low cost foreign labor.

Florida just banned H1B visas at state universities. When is Texas going to ban them in the Texas legislature?

@GaryCardone How in the f•ck can people just bow down to the level of corruption here?

Well no wonder the country is going to shit in a hand basket FUCK Professional Politicians, YOU are all corrupt!

Feels like the algorithm is fixed, finally seeing posts from friends I haven’t in awhile. Hope all are well!

@nikitabier 5hr update: Didn’t work

@nikitabier I hope this works. Like this if you follow me.

We're rolling out a small tweak to boost visibility of your posts to your mutuals (people who you follow back). We noticed this data was missing from the algo and it made your friends appear less in your replies. This resulted in the reply section feeling more like a battleground with people you don't recognize. This should also help clusters form around interests more easily, which many people have asked for.

@TyronMcDaniel It’s what all the cool kids are doing now.

@dnapway Great traders have ADD

Martin Shkreli reveals what separates great traders from everyone else "Traders are risk managers, fundamentally. Alpha is critical, but you cannot be a trader without excellent risk management." "You have to be able to get out of a losing position, which for so many people is really hard to do. To a great trader, it's very easy. But you also have to be able to resist lots of different impulses. You can't be impulsive. "That's why not many people are great traders. If anybody could be a great trader, you could easily get to a billion dollars in your personal account, but it's very hard." "Bad traders will either change their mind too quickly, or never at all. Eventually, enough stubbornness will lead you to bankruptcy. But if you unloosen that screw too much, that's not very good for stocks you really believe in that could go up 10 or 20 or 30X." "Good traders know when to get off the ride and not overstay their welcome, which I recommend after a 10x, 20x, 30x. You don't need the last 2x, you got most of it." "You're not paid to calculate, analyzing, channel checks, modeling, research. You're paid to make this line of PnL go up. That's the only part of the job that matters. It doesn't matter if you were right in the long run. All that matters is this line going up."

@RealAlexJones They want to create a narrative that people are destroying these to increase the number and get local authorities to protect them.

@AdinUpdate Probably thought N30N was Sneako

N3on was denied access to the Conor McGregor vs. Max Holloway UFC fight because he was apparently banned, but made one boss call to Dana White and was immediately let into the VIP section 😳
