This world is designed to favor the elderly. Gaining experience through trial and error first means that you have a competitive advantage over latecomers. It also occupies an advantageous position in social organization. This is the advantage that arises from being the first to start. However, the statement that 1 plus 1 equals 2 can be understood without any experience; it serves as an analytic proposition that can be known by reason compared to the aforementioned experiential proposition. In other words, in the realm of analytic propositions, the advantage of being older does not hold much weight. The world needs both experiential propositions and analytic propositions, but experience is not always essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Making money is far more addictive than spending it. Once you earn money, the pathway to creating more becomes clear. If you try that method and succeed again, then money-making becomes a religion beyond mere addiction. When this method is experienced as an accomplishment, one must remember that the purpose and core motivations suddenly shift from their original intent, leading to corruption. Addiction knows no distinction between good and evil and disregards the line between the sacred and the secular. Be cautious of becoming addicted to seemingly good things. Anyone with a firm conviction of good and evil should always raise concerns. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
