Understanding Money

A clear discourse on the bubbles that are brewing right now. Great insight considering this was written back in 2000.

Lucidity

For some reason unexplained, it gets foggier as we approach the source.

Alacrity and Hypocrites

Good news for a friend, proof that good things do happen.

Charades

I had the chance to partake in a little sort of thought experiment. Gathering a group of complete strangers whom had barely interacted with each other for 2 hours. The game proceeded in getting the participants to rate one another over who could be a possible delinquent, who was trustworthy, who was a heartbreak etc. Information you wouldn't gleam in 2 hours. The sort of assumptions that were made can be pretty mortifying or a confirmation of how good you managed to hoodwink the rest.

To worsen the matter, as a sake of convenience, confidential rating was forsaken and the table of participants could see who was rating who at what. Cries of protest at the voter came up every now and then at the results which the subject felt improbable.

This is a very good test at for discovering the kind of impression that you give to people and the level of trust which they are willing to invest in you.

Spinning Stars

My head is spinning really bad after an evening joy ride on a yacht around Singapore.
