The Trap of Compound Interest: Many view compounding as beneficial because interest earned is reinvested to increase profit. However, for those who are in debt, compound interest can increase the burden, leading to even greater losses. This effect disproportionately harms poor people, who often pay higher costs and face greater opportunity costs than the wealthy. While compounding enhances gains for those profiting, it intensifies harm for those losing money. This structure benefits the powerful, as the rules are designed by those in power. As a result, the desire for power can drive people toward questionable actions. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
If social media doesn't have a “Like” or “Comment” feature, there is just a post and claim… The consent of others is “intermittent variable compensation.” Without compensation, we can't sustain to do anything. It is a problem even if there is always compensation. This is because compensation is taken for granted. If so, the rewards you take for granted will not function. It is “gambling” that this “intermittent variable compensation” works well. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
