Employees at securities firms have access to stock information that is more abundant and faster than what the general public receives. However, only a few among them are truly wealthy. Many believe that having a good environment, a prime location, and access to exclusive, valuable information will lead to wealth, but the reality is different. In truth, a person’s perspective and practical ability to understand the world hold greater power. A life dedicated to understanding the essence of phenomena and things ultimately enriches one’s existence. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Rather than building more houses to catch skyrocketing real estate prices, investing in transportation infrastructure is more effective. An office worker unable to afford London’s murderous rent moved to Barcelona, Spain, to live in a three-room house. He commuted to low-cost airline Ryanair for about £ 300 less than commuting from London (as of 2017: £ 580 house rent + £ 778 transportation fee = £ 1,358). The transportation environment changes our lives. Thoughts can’t keep up with the change. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
