Nominal Value is the price assigned to an item, such as a book priced at $15.50. Real Value is the adjusted price, considering factors like inflation and depreciation, so the used price of the book reflects this Real Value. Intrinsic Value refers to the worth of the book’s content, which can far exceed its Nominal or Real Value depending on the reader’s ability to understand and apply it. Merchants profit from the gap between Nominal and Real Values, while wise individuals gain by recognizing and utilizing Intrinsic Value. Recognizing and leveraging these values is essential for building wealth. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
One of the easiest businesses in the world is the sale of fear. Fear is closely tied to how we survive, but safety is an emotion that comes after survival. Therefore, avoiding fear is prioritized over staying safe. Hence, many entrepreneurs are easily tempted to fear-market "OOO FREE". In other words, "OOO FREE" means "maybe someone else has it" instead of "I don't have it," and the conclusion is that this conduct sows fear in the public. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
