Steve Jobs and Bill Gates

图片
Steve Jobs was not 'warm and fuzzy': biographer Jobs, despite being worth billions of dollars, lived in a modest house in Palo Alto and was determined not to let money change him. Jobs told Isaacson a lot of people had changed at Apple after becoming wealthy. "A few people went out and bought Rolls-Royces and they bought homes, and their wives got plastic surgery," Jobs said. "I saw these people who were really nice, simple people turn into these bizarro people," he said. "And I made a promise to myself. I said: ‘I’m not going to let this money ruin my life.’" http://www.ottawacitizen.com/story_print.html?id=5597108&sponsor= And here's a real world example to explain Precession Theory...

A Message to Occupy Wall Street

图片
Dear Occupy Wall Street, I completely understand your anger and commend you for having the courage to do something about it. Henry Ford, founder of Ford Motor Company  said nearly a century ago , " It is well that the people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning. " And that was before the government financial system really got good at stealing from and impoverishing us.  Today, if we all really had any idea as to what has been done to us by the system there’d be 6.8 billion people involved in these protests.   However, there is a very, very important piece of the puzzle that you have missed completely. In order to understand why, you have to realize one thing.  You have been brainwashed. Don’t feel too bad, we all have been. Thomas Pynchon said, " If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about the answers. "...

Education And Freedom

For years, I've dedicated my life to mastering the global economic chess match, where the moves of yesterday and today will land us tomorrow. And trust me, it's no easy task. It entails knowing how the policies in America trickle into the stability or instability of the world. Below are some drafts and notes related to the education system (part of the cause), part of my findings on slavery in the 21st century. Though they are still scattered around, by connecting the dots, we shall be able to get a better picture in the near future. The temporary conclusion is: all things are well connected: 政经文教、 士农工商,环环相扣、息息相关. While the plantation system is still alive and well in the Information Age ( Slavery In The 21st Century? ), there seems to be an education trap in the real world to produce obedient skilled workforce to the ruling elite. As what G.Edward Griffin in The Creature from Jekyll Island pointed out on Rockefeller's General Education Board (founded in 1903): Tr...

The Real Threat of Cyber Terrorism

Identity theft — mainly, fraudulent spending — has affected hundreds of millions of people, causing hundreds of billions in losses worldwide in the past decade. Today, though, your credit card number isn't the only target of hackers' keystrokes... What Do You Do Online? I bank with an online interest-bearing checking account. I use it to make utility, car, cable, and phone payments. It also contains my entire banking and ATM transaction history. I pay my mortgage through a separate online account. I have a brokerage account. I manage my insurance and health savings account (HSA). I have an individual retirement account (IRA). I have a credit card account. And of course, I have an email account, which doesn't forget anything and is a catch-all for correspondence from any person or business I interact with: orders, confirmation numbers, pictures, usernames, etc. The very fabric of my life — and yours, I'm sure — is sewn together with digital thread. It's...
