Political factions within the workplace are a phenomenon that is observed strongly in large companies. The technology sector brings together a large proportion of politically engaged individuals, creating within these companies a mixture of polarization among colleagues. Causes for conflict range from issues related to Democrats and Republicans rather than matters of real substance for personal life. It is a fact that collegial hostility tends toward cult like limits, significantly affecting cooperation within the corporation. For those higher in the hierarchy who choose not to get involved, the problem is also connected to the past, when they themselves were in smaller positions of responsibility. They have probably accepted that this is a difficult to resolve political situation among colleagues. But is it really so? This does not matter much, because the tactic of equal distance has already been decided, and whatever opportunity may exist is considered not relevant. The retention of...

Cities exist because people have organized themselves over millennia to meet various needs. A primary reason for this organization was security, achieved through the smooth coexistence of large groups, as well as the prosperity that peace allows. Although centuries have passed since the first cities were established, many of their foundational values remain strong today. Urban development accelerated during the Industrial Revolution, when large populations in Western states moved to cities to meet economic demands. Industrialization has deeply influenced our daily lives. We now rely on conveniences designed to simplify the processes of buying, receiving and using goods. Over time, many traditional occupations have transformed. The butcher shop, grocery store and clothing store have largely been replaced by modern supermarkets and online marketplaces. Similarly, banks have replaced individual lenders, offering not only loans but a wide range of services backed by scientific and professi...

The cow season ends when chaos begins. In this troubled world, there will always be opportunities for exceptional profits. The only flaw of these ideal situations is their constant movement from one economic sector to another. Throughout human history, what is considered ideal has shifted from trade in wood and marble to precious stones, then to coffee, tea, bananas, cotton, oil and beyond. As the ancient Greeks said, everything flows. Similarly, the phrase "money never sleeps" reminds us that we must plan our course and pursue it diligently. The path to wealth requires deep economic thinking. We must focus on understanding money rather than chasing it blindly. Often, we spend hours, days, or even months on things we could have achieved if we had access to sudden wealth. An objective analyst might ask why we fail to seize the opportunities presented by a globalized world. Too often, we hesitate to produce useful products, services or information for the public because we fear...

In times of crisis, capital moves at a snail’s pace. Strong entrepreneurial efforts often fall into the gaps left by uncertainty, yet these gaps reveal the incentives that drive us to take risks. At its core, human thinking is often dominated by the dream of rapid enrichment. Fast wealth captures our imagination and focus. The investment opportunities offered by a free economy challenge the economic introversion of many developed nations. Markets are fluid, constantly reshaping the rules and theories that once seemed permanent. Today, the search for new ventures and trading opportunities dominates business interests. Investors naturally seek web shelters, platforms with the potential to turn ambitious dreams into reality. Indeed, the internet has created pathways for astonishing gains, with people worldwide achieving significant wealth in short periods. But is fast enrichment truly the ultimate goal? Imagine a world where every dollar you invest returns a billion. In such a world, your...

The principles that govern a business are crucial for its progress, regardless of the external data. One principle I consider particularly important in designing a strategic investment is stable and equivalent funding. Achieving this is not easy, and the principle carries risk in two key ways. First, long-term capital allocation is essential for enterprises seeking new markets, innovative technology, and research. This type of funding can be difficult to maintain during times of crisis. Therefore, the amount dedicated to long-term investment should be sufficient to provide stability for at least ten years. Second, equal funding, providing consistent capital over time, can be even riskier. In times of crisis, it may fail to deliver the desired results, while in times of economic prosperity, additional funds may be needed to achieve investment goals. The amount allocated should be proportional to the risk the investor is willing to assume. Every investment carries risk, but one should ne...

The new economic era has already begun to create an unfamiliar framework of innovative concepts and opportunities. Its foundation no longer relies on traditional lending techniques. In recent history, loans have rarely posed such a perilous burden for markets hungry for quick capital. What makes a loan so hazardous is our uncertainty about the future. A wise and insightful person can anticipate the likelihood of certain events, but events alone don't define the direction of an era. The contributions of community members are, fortunately or unfortunately, essential for building this foundation. Reflecting on the harsh realities the world has faced, I conclude that a transitional period is necessary to connect the past with the future. The current global confusion highlights the rapid and unpredictable nature of this period. Consequently, taking loans is risky, as the chances of using them profitably are limited. It is a classic game of chance to optimize business opportunities when ...

Day by day, money loses value. The purchasing power of the US dollar is a fraction of what it was a century ago. Times are changing rapidly and new “rules” are reshaping alternative investment strategies. Bonds, stocks, and electronic currencies have become major forms of wealth storage for ordinary people, beyond simple bank accounts. These traditional forms of investment offer tremendous opportunities. Each country is at a different stage of development, so no single rule can encompass every case. Before the 2007 financial crisis, purchasing stocks was a common investment activity. Today, however, the stock market faces skepticism and distrust regarding the quality of shares traded. This challenge, whether direct or indirect, is likely to persist for some time. Nevertheless, we live in an era where almost every aspect of the economy is being questioned. I believe that after the downturn caused by the crisis, national banks in developed countries will regain strong stability in their ...

Money is a medium of exchange in society. You give money and receive food, stocks and bonds, services, or foreign currency. There are various forms of monetary transactions, including electronic transfers, checks, and physical cash. Have you ever wondered in what form we actually measure our wealth? In many countries, this makes no difference. In others, capital controls limit the movement of money. Under such conditions, real importance and value belong to anything that can be transferred without restrictions. In short, if you met someone living in a country with strict capital controls, even on electronic transactions, and wanted to understand the extent of their wealth, you might ask, “How many kilos are you worth?” or “How many banknotes and coins do you possess?” The true value of money can generally be defined not as a number, but as the ability to use and distribute it freely. If you own money that you cannot access or spend, it is as if you do not truly have it. Of course, it s...

Bankruptcy is a natural occurrence in an economic system. It did not need to paralyze the entire economy, since businesses operate according to different hierarchies of goals and needs. On the contrary, the gaps left by companies that exited the market should have been filled by stronger firms. As financial resources still existed, it can be concluded that incorrect business decisions were made. The market failed to close these gaps, and the resulting damage was distributed evenly across businesses rather than proportionally. As a result, the economy lost the opportunity for a major boom following a great recession, perhaps permanently. Consequently, speculative activity has become the dominant framework for rapid enrichment during this free fall in overall investment interest. Individuals now rely more than ever on their need to work. Personal labor is rewarded only to the extent that it allows them to purchase basic necessities such as food and housing. There are currently no signifi...

Nowadays, the global investment climate remains tight. Market uncertainty has erased the notion of a predictable statistical outlook for the future. No one knows exactly what will happen to the economy, as constant changes lead to sharp reversals in even the most reasonable forecasts. The market itself is burdened by a high risk of capital investment. Even since the 2007 crisis, the economy’s wounds remain fresh. One of the most common fears among businesspeople is fragmented trust. After the collapse of Lehman Brothers, a 158-year-old company, business credit declined sharply. Questions about the future weigh heavily on those involved exclusively in investment projects and the stock market. For this reason, co-negotiators must clarify their intentions. What is their true purpose? Everyone has a plan for what they want to achieve through business. Typically, the expectation is either to create a healthy, stable, low-risk business supported by steady profits and low fixed targets, or to...

Let me guess, you want to make money from nothing. That is one point of view, but how realistic is it? Profit is never truly effortless. Even someone who sells air had to work hard to achieve that goal. A businessman does not become the commodity he sells, whether it is oil or stocks, but his success comes from his work. The way he approaches his environment and organizes his efforts brings success. He works hard, follows a structured schedule and eventually succeeds. Do you want to make a profit from a website or blog? Observe the reality of the Internet and the market. Find something society truly desires on a daily basis. Trends like fashion come and go, but individual needs and deep desires remain. Are you ready? A quality blog stands out. In my view, maintaining a blog or website carries significant time investment and risk. From the very beginning, it is necessary to set standards and define a period for building your site or blog. Key factors include the number and length of you...

Invest time in your blog. It can be your hobby, but it remains an Internet space, a place where you can also make a profit. Two hours a week is a convenient amount for someone who doesn't want to exhaust himself for the sake of the audience. The best and most efficient work is done slowly and systematically. You do not need to spend endless hours in front of a computer. Writing well requires readiness of mind. For example, I always write in a notebook in absolute silence. A successful blog is created by a thoughtful author, not by someone working on it around the clock. Excessive dedication of your productive time to the computer can even lead to a loss of perspective. Sooner or later, you will reach a stage where you critically judge your own articles. The period of utopia has passed. You understand that nothing you do is perfect and that every post has flaws. Criticism of your own work is generally a sign of progress, showing that you are willing to improve what you have created....

Every blog or website that respects itself has an identity. This identity reflects the area of interest the site occupies and invests in. Popular topics include sports, fashion, politics and lifestyle. However, writing about these subjects does not guarantee success. Users know these areas are constantly updated due to their popularity, so they aren't fully committed to a single news source. The allure of something new on the Internet is even greater. You can choose to be the one who delivers valid news on a weekly basis, or the one who creates new trends, such as sharing vintage songs, photos, or unique content. The identity you choose should reflect who you are, allowing you to grow by publishing meaningful and beautiful posts. Following a path you do not believe in wastes your time and can prevent anyone from trusting you online. Trust is everything in the impersonal and rapidly growing global web. Make your site great again. Start anew, but do not erase what has brought you thi...

The job of a blogger isn't what many people think. A blog is similar to a website, but it has subtle differences that matter greatly to readers. I believe these differences are the key to a blog’s success compared to a traditional website. A website is difficult to update daily for someone who has other obligations besides content creation, not to mention frequent design changes. To remain dynamic in a vast and competitive online environment, a website requires regular updates and alternative information. Achieving this demands careful planning over months and often programming skills to find cost-effective solutions. The best results usually come from the combined effort of a team. In contrast, a blog allows for easier experimentation with both design and content. Blogs often encourage a more relaxed style and readers are more forgiving of mistakes in posts or design, provided the content is genuine and accurate. This is partly because blogs are often not driven by financial gain....

The Internet is like a large home with countless rooms and spaces, each with its own meaning and purpose. Every space has a role and its purpose justifies its existence. A huge home has rooms, a kitchen, bathrooms, corridors and more. In this analogy, a search engine resembles a corridor, guiding you wherever you want to go. An informative site is like the living room, filled with newspapers and resources, while a bedroom represents a site where you relax and enjoy the content at your own pace. For this reason, it is important to choose carefully which room your website or blog will represent. The focus of your content determines your role. A useful tip is to avoid trying to make your site the entire house. You can have a bedroom, a living room or both, but not everything. The Internet develops and thrives according to a set of informal rules. The most important rule is that everyone has the right to participate, whether as a casual surfer or as a content creator. Without this freedom,...

Blogs and websites are Internet domains; rooms in a large house that is the global web. In this house, everyone who wishes to explore has access. Curiosity, the search for specific information and simple browsing are major factors in the development of this medium. Each visitor arrives with certain needs and a website should meet these expectations if its administrator wants visitors to return. Understanding the user’s logical requirements can lead to repeated visits. These logical requirements stem from the expectations a visitor has before being redirected to a particular website. For example, in real life, when you stay at a hotel for holidays, you expect the room and surroundings to be tidy and clean. You then look more closely to see whether the bed is comfortable and whether the bathroom is convenient. Similarly, the first impression a visitor has of a website is its design and the presentation of its content. This first image is crucial, as it often determines whether the visito...

Inflation in the Eastern Bloc could not be adequately addressed by adding value to products, but only temporarily restrained through relationships of commercial dependence with foreign countries. Low production costs could neither be sustained nor provide corresponding benefits to citizens, as this approach remained confined to monetary analysis. In contrast, inflation in the former communist countries was fundamentally a failure of governance. The application of theories did little to improve the situation, because those theories, formulated from a position of safety, spoke of tactics and maneuvering at a time when the societies that did develop were functioning smoothly. The prevailing framework in the countries of the Iron Curtain consisted of individuals with little interest in forming meaningful connections with one another, due to the extreme toxicity of what might be called “social unionism”. As a result, one can scarcely speak of a true society even in the years preceding the c...

What matters is not who will rise, but which sector will be replaced so that another can better serve the operation. It also does not matter which sector will be at the center of someone’s interest, because the issue does not truly concern sectors but people, their relationships, and the way of working that provides solutions. In this way, selection emerges from society itself or from a group of people who share some form of relationship, even if only a faint one. As we understand, the economy isn't something fixed, but something indeterminate, shaped according to the real conditions to which a business must adapt. It is therefore necessary, in economics, to clarify what exactly we are referring to under the general concept and to dedicate a distinct category to each perspective that examines the notion of the economy through a different lens, for example planning or profit intensity. This is similar to what happens in geometry with its various types: Euclidean geometry, hyperbolic...

The contribution of analysis lies in the assumption of responsibilities by employees who possess a deep sense of freedom and calm. It functions much like an institute or a consulting body and when this occurs, the director is obliged to integrate the appropriate individuals into the process of evaluating the outcome. Otherwise, I believe that analyzing non-real quantities as theory leads to a misleading approach, resulting in the management of something that does not correspond to reality. Data analysis is essentially the analysis of a “product,” not the reduction of everything into abstract variables, as that is an extreme position. Today, technical certification companies such as ISO have evolved into analysts of theories and of how well these are adopted in practice according to manuals, rather than focusing on a more individualized orientation and examining whether a certification actually delivers the intended results instead of merely complying with general guidelines. This shift...

Regional economies have experienced successive shocks that have affected the overall picture of the market. The housing cost surge of 2016–2019, the lockdowns of 2020–2021 in most countries of the developed world, and the technological rise of AI have significantly reduced the revenue pie. In particular, local markets have gone through a period of continuous changes in consumer behavior. The absence of online shopping at competitive prices, high rents and the steadily decreasing need for physical presence at work have affected both consumers and businesses. The balance in this relationship has been lost and only time will show what will happen, or whether new business solutions can be found to address the issues of employment and wealth creation. At this level of correlation, regional economies theoretically have the same chance of success. However, the truth is that even if someone manages to develop new professional or business plans, they will soon relocate their activities to a maj...

In order to distinguish the operations of a company, it is helpful to observe the flow of information within the organization itself. From the most critical operation to the least significant one, the ranking remains the same in terms of how information ultimately moves. We do not have absolute time at our disposal, nor would it be correct to hover over a single detail and divide it into ever smaller parts in order to analyze it and try to understand something, because in the end nothing remains. The creation of an internal archive will facilitate oversight and procedures, because the way work is carried out will become understandable once it has been deconstructed. Each person will then be able to selectively retain what they believe will benefit them beyond what they are formally required to keep. The goal is not to change the work itself. The way employees keep a personal archive for themselves stems from their concern that information might be lost and from the need for quick acces...

Each person should aim to develop their own rhythm, the cultivated ability to make decisions that solve problems related to the work they do, and to find within routinized daily life a way for the work itself to change and for goals to be renewed in reality. In this way, everyday life will become better, at least in the office, since that is what we are discussing. A relative mapping of information according to its path during circulation within the company can provide a picture of what is happening internally during work. It shows who truly holds responsibilities and authority, and who attempts to evade their own while being generously paid for the opposite. Beyond this, in the next chapter we will see how all of this can form the basis for reducing operating costs by sixty to ninety percent annually. To be in a position to negotiate with external partners, a company must not depend on them, or must limit the revenue they derive from it. If a problem exists, it will function like a bl...

So-called Information Management is a blend of many different factors and fields that need to be re-examined with the aim of being specifically revised where deemed necessary. Let us take things from the beginning. I titled the research work Management and Information because we will take a simple look at all that information which is piled up together with the rest and essentially goes unnoticed by those most directly concerned, in the name of aggregation and analysis by other departments that haven't the slightest idea of the value they are handling. The aggregation and compartmentalization of analyses into groups and phases destroy the conclusions of the analysis itself, which ends up merely as a statistic. The way companies are heading, they need professional statisticians rather than analysts who produce statistics. The value of analysis has an advisory role, not merely that of explaining a statistical table, whatever form it may take today. Of course, statistics are important...

With schematic storage, it appears that the amount of paper used will be reduced, as well as the number of printouts and therefore the ink consumed. It allows faster storage of many key elements and is suitable for creating copies based on essential originals that do not require changes. In addition, the exchange of original paper documents between offices can be reduced, which will help keep them in better condition. More proper use of the computer and the tools it provides will be encouraged, such as cropping part of an image and saving it as a file in cases of emails and useful information. Potentially, confidence in this method of storage will increase, which will reduce the use of printers for occasional copies of originals and printouts used as reminders from emails or other documents for possible use. Thus, an organized digital archive will be maintained, both of originals (wherever someone wishes) and of key information requiring low storage space. At the same time, employees’ ...

The government of Donald Trump will be judged tonight using a framework appropriate for both subsequent and previous administrations, so that we may take into account not the general political climate, but the values that make a presidency good or bad. The staff of each administration defines the list of issues that will occupy the presidential term for four years. Trump’s first administration was guided by diplomatic engagement with various problems, with central figures such as Mike Pompeo, Mike Pence, John Bolton and Steven Mnuchin. On the other hand, in Trump’s second term we observe intense activity around the prospect of localized military interventions instead of classical American diplomacy. The only party with a direct interest in the military is the Department of War. Therefore, the expected escalation by the United States in response to the problems it faces internally and outside of U.S. soil is considered a failure to impose long-standing positions through peaceful means. ...

The first human in space was Yuri Gagarin. The cosmonaut lived a shattering experience, seeing the planet from above, very high above. The idea of the human who flies gave way to the human who floats. Once again, the impossible became possible. CIA estimates begin from the year 1964 onward. It is estimated that the Soviets were spending 5–10 billion dollars annually on their space program, far less than NASA, yet with almost the same results. The economies of the two countries supported space exploration to a significant degree, a period that continues today with spectacular technological developments. In the case of humanity and space, the cards were played so that limits would never again be placed on what a state–private sector organization can achieve. A false impression has prevailed that the USSR was effective as a monolithic state entity, but this wasn't the case. The USSR repeatedly required the contribution of companies to achieve its goals, most notably the PepsiCo–USSR a...
