Just my thoughts #0570

“I can live well alone!” is not correct. If I live alone, I can survive to some extent, but ultimately, it is hard to survive, and “living well” is even more challenging. This is because the economic principle is established not by ‘alone’ but by ‘many people.’ If I live well, it means that someone has become poor because of me or is living well with me. The fact that through value exchange, or transaction, we can meet each other’s needs and store the surplus from that production is both true and real. Trading is not done in isolation. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Common means relatively few limits. Therefore, the common items should be inexpensive—for example, air. But just because it’s common doesn’t mean it lacks value. It simply signifies a lower price. Just because it’s almost free doesn’t mean it’s without merit. The sector a product belongs to affects the profitable connection between value and price. Daily necessities are inexpensive because they are common, but they hold significant value. If the imbalance between value and price exceeds the risks of an exchange opportunity, a profit is generated. If you capitalize on this opportunity and take a risk to purchase the imbalance, it is referred to as an investment. Opportunities always arise from imbalance. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

In a market economy , ‘ price ’ is determined by supply and demand . Producers supply and consumers demand, and the compromise between them is price. However, the price determined by supply and demand is not always beneficial to both producers and consumers. The price formed in the market is distorted by various factors, and the imbalance that occurs at these times results in a loss for some and a benefit for others. Wealth transfer occurs when there is an imbalance in the price of a good or service. Price imbalance necessitates an understanding of the essence of the market that forms between supply and demand, and it is a fundamental virtue for entrepreneurs to develop an ability to recognize bubbles and undervaluation of value . - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The physical value of a book is a measurable cost of paper, printing, and labor charges , but estimating the value of the book’s contents is difficult. Most intangible values are similarly challenging to assess. We purchase the intangible value of a book at its physical price. When revenues are generated, the added value produced can be realized. These revenues arise solely from sales, which are based on price, not value. In essence, there is always an imbalance between price and value , and this imbalance determines whether one is wealthy or poor. Management is the act that shifts this imbalance in my favor. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
