The good is the state of maintaining goodness itself, not the elimination of evil, and vice versa. Many see “maintenance of state” as proof of existence or non-existence. NO! Failing to maintain the state doesn’t create a new event; it simply allows the opposite to manifest. A single dichotomy can’t judge good and evil. Even in the Bible, it states that separating and removing the wheat and weeds can only happen when a singularity (harvest time, judgment day) occurs. Therefore, energy is needed to sustain a specific state until that singularity arrives. Energy comes from outside. Relationships with others are divided into those where energy is lost and those where energy is gained. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The most important rule in investing is not to lose your initial capital . Making money comes later. If you lose 50% of your principal , the loss rate is 50%, but to recover that principal, you need a 100% return . This is because the baseline of your return—the principal—has already been halved. Many people tend to think that if they’ve lost 50%, they only need a 50% return to break even. However, this is a misunderstanding of the starting point. In investing, the baseline is always the original principal . The principal after a loss is no longer the same; it’s already in the past. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
