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”
The Bible's Solomon is called the “king of wisdom”. Solomon did not ask God for wealth and honor, but for “wisdom,” who knows how to rule the people and discern good and evil. This “wisdom” is called “rev showmea (לב שמע)” in the original text. Solving the meaning of this word means “listening mind” or “discerning heart.” Why do you want to hear and discern? To realize and practice. The mind is not seeing. It's to listen. There is no wisdom, wealth, and honor unless we hear and understand a person's heart and then take action. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
