Nothing personal just thinking out loud.

  Soon I came across many articles against the big companies and especially against the Chinese state.  They are responsible for air pollution and harm to humanity.   I have nothing against the free writing of people or journalists. But are they correct in their conclusions? Let's assume that every product produced by a large company is bought by the common man. Shouldn't we pay a little attention to our actions? Everyone purchases a Chinese-made product, such as a phone. This is true regardless of whether the product originates from an American or European company. Is it just a phone? For example, I know people who criticize wealthy corporations. Their actions show they replace their TV every few years because they want the latest model. Another sees that they are advertising the latest model fridge, but its design is nicer, and he decides to renew it even if it is a payoff, but he needs to be able to take a picture for social media in front of a good-looking fridge...

Is the holiday in Turkish Riviera Antalya worth it?

I am visiting Antalya for the first time. The plane ride took us three hours. We received a welcome at the airport. Of course, we had paid for the ultra-inclusive package. Upon arrival, we were offered to visit the restaurant to eat. The hotel's restaurant was actually open twenty-four hours a day. After we were accommodated, we toured the complex. Since it was late, we sat at the bar, which was open 24 hours. The hotel itself had several bars, a disco, and a restaurant next to the beach. You can eat at this beachside restaurant instead of going to the hotel when you're at the beach during the day. I noticed security on the beach, inside the hotel yard, and at the entrance itself. It was also twenty-four hours. Food in restaurants is plentiful. It gave me the impression that the alcohol was  legal. I thought that if I ordered a twelve-year whiskey, I would be served something worse. However, since I only ordered a single twelve-year whiskey, they provided me with what I needed....

Not everyone can win, there must be losers.

Investing in a utility company can provide a steady stream of income. Generally regulated, utility companies offer investors some stability and predictability. Utility companies often have strong balance sheets and generate a lot of cash flow, which can make them attractive investments. Utility companies can be a beneficial way to diversify a portfolio. There are many different types of utility companies, so investors can find one that fits their investment goals. But in reality, utility companies' revenues are predictable. Accept yourself as a regular payer. Assume that your neighbor is also a payer. Thus, all users of their services are payers. The company itself has the income and can afford the dividend. Another thing is that the stock market has a crisis. The company will always have these customers. This situation could be compared to a pandemic that wipes out people. Realistically speaking, you don't expect a sharp rise in the share price. But you can always expect it to...

In my opinion, making investments in times of crisis

 Everything during a crisis goes downhill. As usual, when a person falls ill, their health deteriorates significantly.   Mother Nature finds a way to remind us. Because people get carried away and rapidly forget themselves.  Ever since the world can remember, there have been crises, and there always will be.  The market undergoes the same sorting process as the sieve.   Some will sink because they didn't do their homework. Others may fail due to lying. However, the crisis presents an opportunity for improvement and forward thinking. Here's a straightforward illustration. For example, a very farsighted person, even if he sees that the fruits are already despised, will figure out what to do. He will make vinegar or fruit wine.  You have to recognize those companies that have a future and bet on them. Avoid choosing companies based on personal preference or popularity.   The biggest mistake of the small investor is  to target the top t...

Would I invest in Canadian stocks - I only express my own opinion

Would I invest in Canadian stocks? My answer is yes.  Why? This country stands out as one of the most democratic in the world. There are many well-positioned companies in the Global 2000.   But one cannot invest in everything.   He has to choose a company that can increase his money. In practice, there are also many that are related. I would choose only five companies. I will not mention the companies. The first is in the finance sector. You can choose two sectors, but allocate resources equally between them. The second is railway transportation. The third one is in the energy sector. The fourth one is necessary, as it involves the extraction of raw materials. The fifth one is essential to real estate management. That's basically my motto regardless of where the companies are located. We always choose the best option based on our empathy or the impressions ingrained in our memory from advertisements. But it is better to check back at least ten years to see if th...

Book awards, a step towards success for authors

Is there any greater recognition for a book author than knowing that people are reading his works? There should also be book prizes. He competes with his colleagues for the best book. Furthermore, the thought of winning is a satisfying thrill. Like any competition, the author analyzes his work. It is not normal for the first loser to give up. After two or three races, he can take action to improve it or change the way he writes. He has the option to select a genre in which he might excel. It is not exactly decided to write fiction because more is sought after. If he writes poems, there are also many contests. The primary problem for writers is reaching their readers. One important way to reach readers is by winning awards for their books. In addition to providing optimism, a small advertisement can also attract more readers. There are many book awards. To find out exactly which one is for you, you need to browse the Internet and collect information. This process takes a significant amo...

In fact it's probably the most competitive industry in the world.

This message is intended for anyone who aspires to write books. In general, everyone has something to say to the world. To just write a book and have it as a trophy is not a challenge. But the moment you finish it, you think it's effortless. Why don't you keep going? I can do it. This process prompts you to consider the next step.  By the time you are ready to publish it, problems begin to arise. You consult someone, and they encourage you to move on to the next step. Now that you've already published it and are anticipating sales, you're questioning whether I wrote it so poorly. Do you dislike my story so much? Strangely, even acquaintances don't say anything to me. The disappointment begins. If you don't trust yourself, you'll likely give up. Well, I tried. But at night, you think of the second book and feel lost. You start getting interested in other authors on social media. But every new idea inspires you, and you go looking for another publisher again. ...
