If you’re alone on an uninhabited island, you don’t need money; you only need resources and labor to process those resources for survival. In other words, there’s no need for an exchange-based economy. The exchange of goods led to the development of an economic system that dramatically increases efficiency and productivity. The monetary system was created because society consists of many people living together. To facilitate exchange, value had to be measured, and a price assigned to that value. The foundation of wealth is built on production and exchange. We all rely on others to survive. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
We often find that the more intelligent people are critical of the world. However, a wise person does not use their superior abilities to blame others but to help others. When used foolishly, superior abilities can harm the world; when used wisely, they can help the world. Superior intelligence should not be judged by the extent or depth of its knowledge, but by the fruit it produces. Most of the world's abilities are judged by the value of their use rather than their effectiveness of utilization. A tree should be evaluated by its fruit, not its roots or trunk. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
