Debt inevitably incurs costs: the interest and the usage fee. Borrowing means using someone else’s property as if it were my own. When the purpose of borrowing is achieved, or when the agreed time to return it arrives, it is returned to another person’s possession, and the borrowing cost is no longer incurred. Costs also serve as the basis for production and are the consideration for almost all debts, regardless of the borrowing purpose. The frightening aspect of debt is that it incurs costs and requires repayment of the principal. Originally, the principal was not mine. Thus, spending with other people’s money exposes you to significant risks, especially when you spend on perishable consumption that disappears after use. If you spend someone else’s money without differentiating between production costs and costs for extinction, you are on the fastest path to destruction. Therefore, luxury can ruin even the rich. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
"Asset" means the root of wealth. These “assets” live on credit. Each kind of faith is different. When someone trusts me, someone will trust my gentle character, my sincerity in keeping my promise, or my will to do what I do. In commercial transactions, however, other trading parties trust my “assets” rather than my personality. Even if you do not have a good personality, if you have a lot of assets, transactions with him are active. Wealth is faithful to principles and does not discriminate based on personality. But this does not mean that personality is unnecessary. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
