To build wealth, you must live on your current income, not your future income. Using a credit card allows you to live in the present relying on future income, whereas using a debit card or cash enables you to live in the present with current income. To achieve prosperity, you need to have compound interest working in your favor. Living in the present with future income means depending on the compound interest of others, while living in the present with current income allows you to benefit from compound interest yourself. Don’t live in the present by discounting the future. Don’t discount your time; give it a premium. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
British anthropologist Robin Dunbar was certain that primate cerebral neocortical capacity determines the number of social relations. He definitively established the limit of human relationships at 100 to 230 people. The average value of 150 people is known as Dunbar's number. In the world of chimpanzees, 30 is the absolute maximum. However, fewer than 12 people in the world can sympathize with me. My best friend is now reduced to 3 or 4. The relationship quantity decreases to the square root value and increases to the square value. Three or four of my best friends will eventually connect with people from all over the world. This is the same principle as when one or two virus-infected people infect the world. Focus on your best friend. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
