Victoria’s Secret once created underwear worth 1.9 million USD, adorned with diamonds and jewels. Of course, wearing such underwear in real life is impractical and may not sell, but once Victoria’s Secret produces it, media outlets worldwide will promote this underwear. When considering the promotional impact, 1.9 million USD is not wasted as a publicity expense; the cash may be gone, but the jewelry-adorned underwear remains an asset, and brand promotion occurs globally, making it a genuinely profitable venture. Moreover, the existence of 1.9 million USD in underwear means that even if Victoria’s Secret products carry a higher price than competing brands, consumers may feel less price resistance. Spending money wisely is just as crucial as earning money. To understand the relationship between costs and assets, one must learn accounting. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0362

Adenosine is released when our body is tired, making us feel exhausted. Rest serves as a complementary action for fatigue rather than a mere exercise of will to “take a rest.” The caffeine in coffee prevents the sensation of fatigue by interfering with adenosine’s binding to neuronal receptors in the brain. It doesn’t eliminate the substance that causes fatigue; it simply disturbs the senses. Humans have negative elements, and while removing them is the fundamental solution, they often misunderstand the impact of caffeine on their senses as a remedy. Ultimately, without rest, a person can become overwhelmed. Problem-solving should begin with acknowledging reality, but if we view illusion as a solution, there will be no answers. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
