What in this world isn’t influenced by politics? Politics shapes art and media alike. It involves governing the world and making decisions that determine the future. Art is a product of that influence. Works of art, media messages, and knowledge recorded in books reflect the spirit of the times and offer clues about what’s ahead. Investing is a risky venture in an uncertain future. Therefore, the ability to appreciate artworks and interpret media messages is a vital skill for professionals in investment. Someone who ignores the arts, the progress of knowledge, and the flow of media messages is unlikely to make wise investments. Loving art purely to gain wealth isn’t ideal, but having a passion for art can help you recognize opportunities for wealth more quickly and sensitively than others, making a life close to art a truly fortunate one. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The founder of the guitar company Fender, Leo Fender, said he has never played the guitar. Depending on the nature and characteristics of the business, we must think differently about our confidence in it. For example, it is our prejudice to believe that a famous chef won’t be ruined if he opens a restaurant. The more important priority in business is the ability to grasp the essence than having a career. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
