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”

The 'Bregenz Festival' opens every summer season in Bregenz, Austria. Although a population of 20,000 this is a small town, 250,000 visitors come here for a month, and the economic effect is perhaps 150 million euros. The site of this festival combines a stunning landscape surrounded by the 3rd largest lake in Europe 'Bodensee' and the Alps with cultural goods such as an opera and exhibitions. The best part is the floating opera stage set up on the lake. The annual opera stage stirs curiosity all over Austria. There are many reasons to go to Bregenz only to see the stage. The opera stage, which changes every year and is built on a beautiful lake, is the only one in the world. Whether it is tourism or business, there must be a reason, "Why come here, or why do business with you." - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
