Making money with money is called finance. Simply put, it’s a money trade. However, the most crucial asset in a business that earns money is ‘time.’ Over time, money can grow into more money, whether through a return on investment or interest. So, what does time do? Time causes changes in value, shifting from low to high, and then back from high to low. Time is not equally valuable to everyone. It provides different returns for those who accurately estimate its worth and take action. The value of time varies from person to person, as each individual perceives it differently. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Yeast consumes glucose and produces alcohol along with CO2. This action serves as a defense mechanism to protect against other microbiomes. In other words, the alcohol produced by yeast acts as a poison to eliminate other microbiomes. Thus, a solution with over 70% alcohol concentration can effectively eradicate the COVID-19 virus. We gladly consume the poison that yeast produces in liquor. Probably, isn’t there only a very thin line between happiness and unhappiness? - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Wine contains "polyphenols," which are antioxidants, but it also includes ethyl alcohol, which is a Class 1 carcinogen according to the World Health Organization. Wine sellers emphasize "polyphenols" for their benefit. Nutritional supplements, such as vitamins, are marketed by highlighting their benefits. The explanation is very appealing. But let's look at it this way. We'd laugh if the function of a car were redundantly described as "saving people from heart disease," "promoting tourism," or "robbing banks" instead of simply "moving people around quickly".  Beyond the idea of trying to sell something unreasonable with all sorts of health claims without knowing exactly what they are, there is the hidden deception of fooling others or being fooled by oneself, and greed. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
