Joseph's "Just My Thoughts"

Making money, growing money, protecting money, and using money wisely are different issues. Being good at one does not guarantee success in others. The important thing is to earn, grow, and safeguard your money, and then care for the people around you. To win money at a casino, you just need to observe the successful winners and replicate their actions. You cannot engage in economic activities alone; you need a business partner to earn and manage money together. While it is possible to go solo, you may struggle to expand beyond a certain limit. That doesn’t mean I ignore the poor. If there are needy individuals around you, they might come to you to borrow money, or you might help them at some point. If you try to thrive on your own, it will be challenging to retain your wealth. You can safeguard your money by helping those around you become prosperous as well. However, some people disregard this idea. A person who believes in the power of money often flaunts that power. When these peop...

One hundred seventy years ago, tuberculosis was a lethal disease. This illness posed a significant threat to humanity, resulting in an estimated 1 billion deaths between 1700 and 1900. Notably, traces of tuberculosis have been found in the mummies of ancient Egyptian kings. In the late 1840s, German botanist Hermann Brehmer, confronted with the fatality of tuberculosis, relocated to the Himalayas in search of fresh air.

Throughout history, it seems that economic value often proves transient. - Joseph’s “j...

Economic activity must accompany a counterparty. Since people couldn't live alone anyway, they exchanged whatever goods met their needs, and as a result, an "economic system" was created. The standard of exchange is called "value" and the numerical representation of it is called "price. "Value" and "price" certainly do not necessarily match, and one of the main reasons is "competition. In the end, value is exchanged for price. Values are offered at the pricing initially presented by others or at a provider's insistence that wants to earn profit at first. If only the offered price is recognized by others, the recognized price is accepted as its determined value. The price of one's wage agreed upon with another is the real price of one. All other evaluations and recognitions except the above are only self-justifications and excuses. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
