Most people study in school, yet the education system does not provide financial education. Even though it doesn’t take long for us to realize that finance is an essential element of survival, isn’t it strange that schools don’t offer financial education? Economic activity is a power game where someone wins and someone loses. One person’s loss is another’s gain, and my sacrifice is someone else’s fortune. In other words, economic activity embodies the harsh reality of deciding between discomfort and the uncertain odds of a game that determines who occupies a position, even though that position has already been predetermined. This issue is further exacerbated by the fact that people have different productive capacities and society mandates that the means of value exchange is cash (fiat currency). To survive, you must first understand how social systems function. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Organizations with perfect leaders clearly achieve results. People might assume that such leadership is excellent due to its accomplishments. However, a perfect leader makes decisions only within the limits of their knowledge and does not propose or challenge areas they do not comprehend. After all, a perfect leader shouldn’t fail. As a result, only yes-men surround the perfect leader, while those who disagree tend to leave the organization. What will remain for that leader in 10 or 20 years from such success? - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
