Pricing Power : The phenomenon where the value of money falls below the price of goods is called inflation , and it is said we are currently in an era of inflation. However, it’s not that simple. Inflation is realistically characterized by prices not rising all at once during an inflationary period but rather increasing rapidly for some items and slowly for others over several years. This phenomenon is known as the ‘ Cantillon Effect .’ In other words, inflation is neither uniform nor regular. Conversely, when prices fall below the value of money, it is referred to as deflation . To survive deflation, companies must innovate, often by reducing costs and expenses. During inflation, rising costs must be passed on to other economic agents through increased prices, a concept known as Pricing Power. Since companies cannot pass on all the rising costs, many go bankrupt during periods of inflation. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Texting is locking time in space. Words are a temporal language, and letters are spatial language. Words die out over time, but letters form a “logic” with sentence and word rearrangement. The nobility monopolized this letter. Texting was power. The advent of social media proves that writing is still power. Writing skills, beauty, fun, and benefits are advantageous in this power game. It is the birth of a new aristocrat. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
