Just my thoughts #0549

Money is essentially the same, yet it creates different qualities in how it is used and transacted. In other words, the quality associated with money varies. Not all debts are created equal; there are good debts and bad debts. The quality of these debts can also be classified as good or bad, impacting sales and profits. This is similar to how paying the same amount for fruits can yield different results: one box might contain delicious fruit while another may hold tasteless ones. Thus, even when spending the same amount of money, the pleasure and satisfaction derived from the taste can vary significantly. When these differences accumulate, the utility value of money significantly affects wealth distribution, making the gap between wealth and poverty even more pronounced. Earning well, spending wisely, and borrowing judiciously greatly influence our happiness in life. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The paradox of kindness : Kindness complicates simplicity, and this complexity can lead to unkindness. Simplicity, on the other hand, can foster rudeness. However, brevity offers convenience, which may feel kind. Both aspects present challenges. We find balance in contradictions ; that is a virtue. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
