everything ends...
Live your best when others live worse
From birth to death; everything is a journey
You learn & arm yourself with 'qualifications' cum experiences and better your chances of achieving your goals
Everyone has different goals 心有多大 舞台就多大
Some struggled throughout their lives but achieved little but others hardly pushed their finger & rewards are abundant
This world will never be fair - the earlier you accept it, the lighter the frustration, disappointments & bondage
All promises are empty until delivered
If I need to make a choice between trust and money, I'll take money - with money i can trade trusts 有钱不是万能 无钱万万不能
Money is only a means to an end, not an end by itself
Life has never been tough if you care to void yourself of emotions and expectations
Do whatever fits, take whatever comes ... as from life to death is only a breath away
When you help others, it's a spent force & do not expect appreciation, repayment nor acknowledgement
Whatever rewards, if any, are incidentals
I live once & every day is a bonus - I'll do & go where my heart takes me, logic aside yet without messing up my life
Tomorrow is never promised
Like it or not, we are already in October, 2021 - 3/4 of a year is gone and many are none the wiser but still entrench in the Covid-war, struggling to understand
Money: Will the many zeroes be eliminated & its value debased? Let's ride the cycle
From 1900 to now, the stockmarket, where monies are distributed, is a good indicator of the well-being of economies - boom, bust, recovery
Man (central banks) has created the windows to print money, to multiply it's effects, to shore up confidence and to keep the cycles spinning
COVID did not floor the economies but has definitely slowed the spin
US and China trade spats have aided the slow down but stock market in US has been roaring, none the less
Smart money is always looking for safe heaven but I have doubts if the US markets, especially the eBusinesses & futuristic concepts (eVehicles, space travel, AI + Robotics), can last without major adjustments
Buying into the future is buying into a promise but the world is in consumption mode; here & now
As many are cautious of the Jupiter Effects, every major drop enjoys an equally strong rebound
When confidence wears thin and disappears, 2022 will usher in the "1929 effects"...watch out, you read it here
The physical signs are here but ignored:
**Long Q@soup kitchens
**unemployment & underemployment
**wealth concentration in a few (google: The pyramid shows that: half of the world's
net wealth belongs to the top 1%, top 10% of adults hold 85%, while the
bottom 90% hold the remaining 15% of the world's total wealth, top 30%
of adults hold 97% of the total wealth)
**disrupted logistics and supply chain
**shortage of food
**natural calamities
Unless and until the above are more settled and stable, the next 6-12 months will be challenging
Worry not as this is part of the cycles; the only constant is change
