Most economic concerns are at the core of the conflict between the price of goods and the value of money. An increase in interest rates means a higher cost for borrowing money. This also causes the value of money to rise. Investors want to own an asset that will appreciate in value. They consider whether to buy a good or a currency. Investing in stocks means buying a company, while bonds are buying fiat currency. Most investors see these two concepts as corresponding concepts, not assets of the same nature. The proposition that money buys goods represents a very significant aspect of investing. If you want to invest well, you should get a hint from this proposition. Money appeared because of the convenience of exchanging goods, but in the world of investment, it always results in a confrontation between goods and money. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Even though a country's total population is decreasing, the economic situation could be improved by increasing the total economic activity of the remaining population after the decrease. Of course, there is a statistical population threshold below which this effect occurs. Nevertheless, this effect would not work in the case of a force majeure, such as a natural disaster or the outbreak of war, however, this assumption would be valid because a rapid population decline is a highly exceptional event that would not normally occur. Therefore, an increase in the economic activity of this population should be required during an economic recession. Applying this perspective, for building a solid relationship with your followers on Instagram, the number of followers is less important than the activity between them and you. This is called the "Engagement Rate (ER)". - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
