Just my thoughts #0714

According to Morgan Housel, a financial author, whether an investor is safety-oriented or risk-oriented is mainly shaped by early adult experiences, not by intelligence or education. It depends on where and when a person is born. The region I live in, including my country and the era, greatly influences a person’s economic outlook and ability. If you feel ‘no way,’ you might need to change your location. Even when evaluating others, if you estimate ‘no way,’ you should consider having them leave the place. In the Bible, when someone changes their life, the first thing God does is move them from one place to another. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0093

A shareholder is the owner of a company. A shareholder is someone who invests capital in a company. There are three ways for shareholders to take money from the invested company: 1) become an executive or employee and receive wages, 2) receive dividends after settlement, or 3) receive remaining assets (liquidation property) excluding debts when the company is liquidated. A third party investing in the company is directly irrelevant to the existing shareholders in cash flow. Despite the shareholder owning the company, there is no way to share the surplus capital caused by the investments among the existing shareholders other than 1) and 2) except for company liquidation No. 3. Let me be clear: receiving an investment does not guarantee benefits for the company. It simply covers future costs and expenses in advance. Capital inducement means increasing the heavy duty of leaving profits, not being given profits unconditionally. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
