Although it is not possible to draw a conclusion due to insufficient study, scholars are examining “Is it really fair that humans are rewarded according to their abilities?” and the results suggest that luck and community support are decisive for success. Of course, one cannot ignore or disparage an individual’s abilities. However, it is more accurate to say that they have a limited impact on success. In humans, parental influence—namely, genetic and environmental factors—emerges as the most important aspect according to the study results. The issue is that no one can choose their parents. This is the fundamental reason we must remain humble. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Value and price are different. Value results from relative comparison, and the numerical expression of this result is price; however, value and price do not always align . If the price-to-value ratio is positive, the seller makes a profit while the buyer incurs a loss. Conversely, if it is negative, the seller faces a loss, and the buyer gains a profit. Transactions occur at price, not at value . Handling the ground differs from selling without knowing that gold is buried and purchasing with that knowledge while keeping it hidden. The disparity between value and price creates a divide between wealth and poverty . - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
