Nominal Value is the price assigned to an item, such as a book priced at $15.50. Real Value is the adjusted price, considering factors like inflation and depreciation, so the used price of the book reflects this Real Value. Intrinsic Value refers to the worth of the book’s content, which can far exceed its Nominal or Real Value depending on the reader’s ability to understand and apply it. Merchants profit from the gap between Nominal and Real Values, while wise individuals gain by recognizing and utilizing Intrinsic Value. Recognizing and leveraging these values is essential for building wealth. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

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”
