Money is essentially the same, yet it creates different qualities in how it is used and transacted. In other words, the quality associated with money varies. Not all debts are created equal; there are good debts and bad debts. The quality of these debts can also be classified as good or bad, impacting sales and profits. This is similar to how paying the same amount for fruits can yield different results: one box might contain delicious fruit while another may hold tasteless ones. Thus, even when spending the same amount of money, the pleasure and satisfaction derived from the taste can vary significantly. When these differences accumulate, the utility value of money significantly affects wealth distribution, making the gap between wealth and poverty even more pronounced. Earning well, spending wisely, and borrowing judiciously greatly influence our happiness in life. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The world is structured so that when individuals can’t fulfill their needs alone, they each contribute their strengths. In essence, professionalism stems from choice, focus, and persistence. Highly talented individuals often face numerous internal barriers while striving to develop these qualities. This is the curse of talent, caused by the wide variety of available choices. When one engages in diverse activities and achieves success, rejection takes precedence over choice. Varied talents serve as the primary fuel for conflict. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
