Just my thoughts #0705

People say content is money. That may be true, but money itself is also a type of content. Money is a way to exchange value or build wealth, but it also carries humanity’s stories. We cry and laugh because of money. Money reflects the rise and fall of empires or nations, hiding great stories inside it. Most top YouTube channels focus on content about money and wealth. We often hallucinate money with content. However, we don’t realize that money itself is an ingredient of content. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0109

The founder of the Presbyterian Church, Jean-Calvin, gave the name “vocation (calling)” to the “labor power” people provided to the capitalist. Labor is sacred and destiny. However, in this natural world, humans are the only ones who do much work without reason beyond those necessary for survival. African lions only take a nap outside of hunting time. “The dog in my house” also plays outside except for walking and eating. Humans who work physically and mentally 24 hours a day even abuse their brains, saying they are lacking. Only when you prove yourself to others do you become yourself indeed. But the time has come for AI and robots to do the work humans value. The opportunity came to be recognized for value, not the ability, but the existence itself. In the future, “Who am I?” will lead to success rather than “What are you doing?” Then, I'm asking, “Who are you?” - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
