The concept of “going concern” in accounting emphasizes that a business must persist into the future to retain its value. This principle signifies that present value already incorporates expectations of future value; thus, a business facing uncertainty about its future will inevitably diminish in present value. It highlights the interconnectedness of present and future values, suggesting that they cannot be regarded in isolation. All stocks traded on the stock market are priced based on their anticipated future value. In essence, we trade on a future that has yet to materialize. Consequently, determining how far into the future to evaluate is a critical factor in making investment decisions. Since individuals have varying skills and perspectives on forecasting the future, selecting an investment strategy must align with one’s attitude toward time. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

There are many reasons why a business is challenging. Still, the most general and essential mistake is the inability to distinguish between “good and bad revenues” and “good and bad debts.” Competitors take away good revenues if you are not competitive, and relatively inadequate revenues are selected. If the financial situation is terrible, choosing a lousy debt rather than a good one will be possible. Sometimes, your situation makes a bad choice, but somebody stands up to the problem and endures a chance. In other words, emotion and patience are more important than the situation. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
