Debt : The essence of wealth is ‘debt.’ Liabilities are regarded as debt capital and included as assets in accounting . Isn’t it odd? Debt is classified as an asset... The fundamental idea that currency is created based on the principle that debt arises is crucial. Debt can serve a positive purpose by lowering opportunity costs , but it can also be harmful if not repaid, as it deprives others of their opportunity costs since it must be paid back. Managing debt properly is essential for a company's capabilities in certain situations. Understanding others’ debts can help maintain good credit. However, there are limits to examining others’ debts. Instead, we can monitor the flow of money as an apparent interest rate. Therefore, recognizing and responding to interest rate fluctuations during economic activities is extremely important. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
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"
