Just my thoughts #0637

When money interferes in a relationship, it changes the dynamic. Social norms and market rules come into conflict. For example, imagine a couple on a date, and when the man takes the woman home, he says, “I spent $100 on you today.” Suddenly, a romantic relationship shifts into a market transaction. Messages like “Next time, it’s your turn to pay” and “I did this for you today” appear. The benefits of social norms differ from those of market rules. Both are necessary, but the relationship is affected by when, how, and to whom they are applied. A person who fails to strike a balance between these two aspects risks damaging relationships and harming communities. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The scariest customers in the world are regulars, not picky or complaining customers. Regulars pay a fair price. However, there is no such thing as ‘natural’ in the world. When regulars change their minds, not only do businesses suffer significant financial damage, but they also suffer emotionally. There are traps in naturalness, seeds of failure, and wounds caused by conceit. The older and closer people are, the more cautious you should be. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
