Apparently you barely have to do anything for taxes if you never sell. And here I was stressing like it was goin to be crazy lol.

I've made a single conversion from coin to fiat and it was worth like $100 profit back when I was trying to figure out how everything worked. Ironically I invested it right back into LTC @ $140/coin (this was months ago), so I've already made that back.

The basis point changes from the transaction anyway so it's not like you lost anything compared to holding the original.

Excluding tax brackets and long term vs short term capital gains taxes of course

African Panther was okay, definitely overrated

Something tells me it has a 98% because it is predominantly black and reviewers don't want to appear racist

Maybe I just went in with high hopes because I absolutely loved Creed

Another one who does not know how the ratings work. It means 98% of reviewers liked it. Which is true, most people who have seen it liked it.

I know how RT works

I also know how Metacritic works, where it has an 88/100.

If Black Panther was actually White Panther it would not receive this universal acclaim. I went in expecting something unique and I got Thor 2/Captain America/Doctor Strange but slightly better instead.

It is an above average Marvel movie, nothing more.

Honestly, everyone who dismisses crypto without a second thought is a sucker. Up until late last year, I thought the whole thing was a fraud. I was one of the most vocal opponents of crypto on this board--but it was because I hadn't done any research. I just assumed it was all people playing with monopoly money. It wasn't until I actually started learning about the tech behind it (Ethereum in particular) that I started to realize how many use-cases there are. This is still early in the game. People getting in now can still make a ton of money.

Yup we're going to be partying on our lambo yachts on the moon

If only I got into Bitcoin when my friend told me about it in 2014

Oh well still way ahead of the general population

Stop looking inwards during conversations and focus outwards. Actually listen to what people are saying, read their emotions in their eyes, far too many people wait for the other person to finish speaking so they can retake control and go off on some dumb bullshit about their own lives. That is not an effective conversation. Act like people know things you do not that can provide valuable insight because that is the truth.

I have always been a smug asshole, I always assumed that I knew everything because I was objectively intelligent. It's true that I was smart academically but it took me my entire life to realize I don't actually know dick about fuckall. When you're a condescending prick you disregard alternative viewpoints and interesting and unfamiliar things because you assume you know everything. That only makes you weaker.

tl;dr you probably suck at talking, the fact that you made this topic shows it's bothering you. Sit down, be humble

Let's put it in terms you will understand: does Norway have a problem with mass immigration with a large percent of the population who are coming over with the intention to abuse the welfare system?


https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_to_the_United_States#Economic

A survey of leading economists shows a consensus behind the view that high-skilled immigration makes the average American better off.[98] A survey of the same economists also shows strong support behind the notion that low-skilled immigration makes the average American better off.[99] According to David Card, Christian Dustmann, and Ian Preston, "most existing studies of the economic impacts of immigration suggest these impacts are small, and on average benefit the native population".[100] In a survey of the existing literature, rn B Bodvarsson and Hendrik Van den Berg write, "a comparison of the evidence from all the studies ... makes it clear that, with very few exceptions, there is no strong statistical support for the view held by many members of the public, namely that immigration has an adverse effect on native-born workers in the destination country."[101]

Don't get me wrong, love the director, movie's probably fun, happy for black people to have a hero to enjoy, but this isn't some monumental racial victory, this is like when Amazon puts a rainbow banner on their site because it will pump sales up by 3.6%. If it were financially beneficial for Marvel to create a racist white supremacist hero movie, they'd do it.
