Just my thoughts #0709

A baseball batter cannot hit a home run every at-bat. You might make a lot of money once with luck, but that’s a fleeting way to earn. If you generate a lot of money without even preparing a bowl, you might end up unhappy. The reason for emphasizing the ‘compound effect’ in investing is because it’s one of the few sustainable methods mankind has experienced. However, compared to our greed, ‘compound interest’ seems like a small rate of return right now, so many people break the rules they need to follow and take risky investments, putting themselves in danger. We can’t hit a home run every day. Valuing small profits and working to protect them will bring us good fortune. Greed leads to destruction. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

People say content is money. That may be true, but money itself is also a type of content. Money is a way to exchange value or build wealth, but it also carries humanity’s stories. We cry and laugh because of money. Money reflects the rise and fall of empires or nations, hiding great stories inside it. Most top YouTube channels focus on content about money and wealth. We often hallucinate money with content. However, we don’t realize that money itself is an ingredient of content. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

With a small ego, even minor issues can bruise self-esteem. While both the content and its container hold significance, a larger container can encompass a wider variety of content. The interplay between content and the size of the container creates emotional scars. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The format influences the content. Does coffee served in an attractive cup taste better? Short pants look stylish on some occasions, while others seem tacky or absurd. Why do the same jeans have such varying perceptions? Factors like who wears them, the type of fabric, and the context define their coolness or sloppiness. Effective communication relies on a format that is worthy of quality content. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Doing nothing is also media content. The media showed others something with the obsession that something had to be done. The Norwegian national broadcasting company, NRK, showcased only the scenery of the railroad between Bergen and Oslo for 7 hours and 20 minutes in celebration of the 100th anniversary of the railway’s opening. In 2011, they aired 134 hours of ferry service along the fjord coast. Railroad broadcast ratings were 15% (four times the usual), and ferry broadcasts were watched by 64% of all Norwegians. If you know that humans are not the main characters in our lives, you are guaranteed more fun. Proof of existence and achievement is not everything in our lives. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
