The concept of “going concern” in accounting emphasizes that a business must persist into the future to retain its value. This principle signifies that present value already incorporates expectations of future value; thus, a business facing uncertainty about its future will inevitably diminish in present value. It highlights the interconnectedness of present and future values, suggesting that they cannot be regarded in isolation. All stocks traded on the stock market are priced based on their anticipated future value. In essence, we trade on a future that has yet to materialize. Consequently, determining how far into the future to evaluate is a critical factor in making investment decisions. Since individuals have varying skills and perspectives on forecasting the future, selecting an investment strategy must align with one’s attitude toward time. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
History professor Yuval Noah Harari said, "The most distinguishing feature between humans and other animals is the ability to believe not exist imagination." If you eat a banana exchanged with a bill from the chimpanzee, then the chimpanzee must be angry with you. The bill is just a thing to believe non-existent imagination each other in the human world, it's never important and meaningful for the chimpanzee. Unless the belief is to exchange the value, the money is just paper. This belief makes our social community. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
