Every benefit comes with costs and expenses. There can be no benefit without costs and expenses. Receiving a gift actually incurs costs and expenses. Whether we give our time or spend money to maintain a relationship with the giver, we are paying in some way. Even inheriting a parent’s legacy comes at a cost and expense. Since costs are incurred before gains, it’s more advantageous to learn how to manage spending effectively rather than just earning money to build wealth. Costing the cash is called INVESTMENT. Whether it is a wasteful investment (consumption) or an investment to accumulate value, this decision is ultimately up to you. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The term “pseudo-” means exquisitely similar, but the core differs. This small difference in the core has enormous consequences. When you see a pseudo-doctor, you lose your health or life. When you meet pseudo-religious leaders, you waste your life and ruin your future—this small difference in core changes in fate. So, when consulting, I emphasize the “essence of business” and “identity”. Entrepreneurs don't know the tragedy that occurred by ignoring the small core in peace due to similar reasons. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
