Transactions are made at a price. The value must precede the price, and this value arises because of the limit. Everything in the world is finite. It’s frustrating and sad due to that limit, but it’s worth it in the end because you can’t do it anymore. As the limit approaches infinity, the value decreases, and the smaller the limit range, the greater the scarcity, which leads to a higher value. If there are hundreds of gold medals in one event at the Olympics, that gold medal loses its value. There is a high probability of finding value where there is a limit. Depending on one’s perspective, someone’s limitations can become opportunities. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Like the view of humans, the view of animals also greatly influences our lives. When a domestic puppy dies, we are not indifferent; we commemorate and mourn as we would at a human funeral. However, how should we understand the phenomenon of savoring and even admiring the tenderloin steak on the table without guilt? A person may choose a vegetarian diet due to health issues, but often, it is also influenced by their views on animals. Food, clothing, and shelter are essential for human survival, yet we are less aware of how our views on animals impact these areas compared to our views on humans. Humans coexist with animals.

The Anchoring Heuristic In 1974, Tversky and Kahneman divided two groups and asked one group to calculate the value of "8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1" and the other group to answer the question "1x2x3x4x5x6x7x8" immediately. The average calculation result of the first group was 2,250, and that of the second group was 512. For both groups, the original answer is 40,320, which is the same. Although they multiplied by the same number, the first group multiplied by the order of the larger number, resulting in a higher baseline adjustment, while the second group did the opposite. When we judge and make decisions, the reference point determines the extent and direction of our illusion. When we live, we have to deal with these fallible human beings. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"

Most people substitute the issue of choice with the issue of ability. They recognize they cannot do it because scaring to make the wrong choice or lack the knowledge. Banks pay me 1 to 2 percent interest annually on deposits but charge me 4 to 5 percent on loans. It's a game where I'm losing money in every way. Then, I want to avoid putting my money in the bank. It would be better to use it to purchase that bank's stocks as a substitute but meticulous care is required. To make a choice, you have to conquer your fears. How is this a difference of ability? - Joseph’s “just my thoughts"

"Apples are the fruit" is a true proposition. At this time, "apples" are a Sufficient Condition to be fruit, and vice versa, because the "fruit to be an apple is more necessary for other conditions such as "red, round", the fruit is a Necessary Condition to become an apple. If the proposition of "If you respect someone, you'll get married" is "true," it's a "Sufficient Condition" to find someone you admire for marriage, but it's just only a "Necessary Condition" to find someone to marry for respect. Even with respect, you can not get married. You can't get married even if the Reverse Proposition is "true." Because marriage is a matter of "choice" before conditions or needs. If you want a respectable man, you can find a great man. To live comfortably, you can find a rich man. So, is there no Necessary-Sufficient Proposition for a marriage (conditions where both the proposition ...
