Nothing personal just thinking out loud.

 Soon I came across many articles against the big companies and especially against the Chinese state. How they pollute the air and harm 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 own actions? Everyone goes and buys a product, for example, a phone, that is made in China. Regardless of whether it is from the company from America or Europe. Is it just a phone? For example, I know people who spit on rich companies. It is determined by their actions when they replace their TV, that it was from a few years ago, and he wants to have the latest model. Another sees that they are advertising the latest model fridge but its design is nicer and 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 full of products. Everyone is on social networks and it does not occur to him that this software to support so many people needs more and more hardware that needs electricity. Everyone is trying to buy a new t-shirt so that people who look at his profile can say that he is chic. At the moment, there is such a euphoria in the world about the mania to own electronic money that does not stop, what resources are needed for this. They campaign in the financial media about how important it is for the future, but they don't think about the consequences. Do you think that large corporations would produce a product that is NOT in demand? If there are no buyers they will definitely reduce their production. If all other countries did not demand goods from China, would they produce them? At the moment, the situation is such that if China only closes its borders for six months, not for people but for goods that the rest of the world needs, I have no idea what could happen. Don't think China is making any toys for thrift stores. From the iPhone to the medicines of the needy. In recent years, nearly 80 percent of photovoltaic panels and wind turbines. But when they become rich through their labor, they are the bad guys. In recent years, I have witnessed the politics of American presidents. They are not giving American citizens a better life, but they are struggling to slow down the Chinese economy so that it does not become the number one economy. A simple example is that they put customs duties on goods and so on, the average person simply pays more for the product. I think everyone should think about what they can contribute and not blame others for their own mistakes. For example, I don't have a smartphone yet. To use my laptop, but only for work, to write, or to quickly visit the post office. Visit Meta or LinkedIn weekly. I can't deny that every day I visit at least one financial site to get an idea of what I should invest in. Everyone is right for himself, whatever he says, but our actions must be in the right direction to protect the planet.

Is the holiday in Turkish Riviera Antalya worth it?

I am visiting Anatalia for the first time.The plane ride took us three hours.We were met from the airport. Of course we had paid ultra inclusive. Upon arrival, we were offered to visit the restaurant to eat. In truth, the restaurant in the hotel was open until 24 hours. 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. When you are at the beach during the day, you can use this restaurant which is next to the beach and you don't have to go to the hotel itself. 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. But since I only use one, they really served me what I needed. During the day, they do various activities for the guests in the pool or around it. There are entertainers for small children as well.I liked the performances that they had every night in the summer theater the most. In a word, have fun and don't think about it. You can order drinks everywhere and they always serve you just by waving to the staff. The most interesting thing is that I did not visit their Cafe because it was a Starbucks. There was definitely always a queue and the drinks were at the hotel's expense. In front of the hotel there are several offices for excursions. You want rafting, they take you and drive. If you want an excursion to explore the surroundings up to a hundred kilometers, no problem. But this is additionally paid. I don't want to advertise only this hotel. But I think that's how most of them work. Therefore, many people continue to visit these hotels near Antalya. I had never been in a warmer sea before. Everywhere you need a towel when you go out. The water was actually clean. It's hard to swim underwater. The salt water itself lifts you to the surface. In the city of Antalya, except for the old city, there are no more houses.Only four-five-story buildings of modern construction. I hope that they will not replace the old city and the breath of the old that has been in this city for 2-3 thousand years will disappear. There are really many historical places in the area. I also liked their steep high and somewhat snow-white mountains. The aquarium and museums are worth a visit. But I didn't have the opportunity for everything. The rating I can give for service and everything else is the highest possible. Whether I got lucky or it really is like that, the evidence is that many people return there, it is a fact. If you have not vacationed in Antalya, I can only recommend it.

Not everyone can win, there must be losers.

Investing in a utility company can provide a steady stream of income. Utility companies are generally regulated, which can provide some stability and predictability for investors. 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 good 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, their incomes are known. 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. Or something like a plague to wipe people out. Realistically speaking, you don't expect a sharp rise in the share price. But you can always expect it to drip a little. For me, it is mandatory for an investor to have at least one utility company in their portfolio. This is my opinion. This is not a recommendation to buy at the end of the day everyone has an opinion. Not everyone can win, there must be losers.

Investing in times of crisis - My opinion

 Everything during a crisis goes downhill. As normal as a person gets sick, he is not in great shape. Mother Nature finds a way to remind us. Because people get carried away and very quickly forget themselves. Ever since the world can remember, there have been crises and there always will be. As the sieve sifts, so the market also sifts. Some will sink because they didn't do their homework. Others because they have lied. But the crisis allows the better and far-seeing. A simple example. For example, a very farsighted person even if he sees that the fruits are already despised will figure out what to do. Will make vinegar or fruit wine. You have to recognize those companies that have a future and bet on them. Not the ones you like or are well-liked by others. The biggest mistake of the small investor is to target the top ten large companies. Because their market valuation is growing by large percentages. Are their revenues growing at the same rate? Better in companies in utility services that, regardless of the crisis, we continue to use their services. But without risk, there is no future. But in most cases, now is the time to take a risk. Time will tell if the investment was worth it. In the right companies that have a future. It's good to trust your instincts sometimes.No ads and experts direct people to certain companies. I'm just expressing my own opinion on the matter. Because I do it myself.

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

Investing in Canadian stocks - Would I invest in Canadian stocks. My answer is yes.  Why. A country that is one of the most democratic. There are many well-positioned companies in the Global 2000. But one cannot invest in everything. He has to choose a company which can increase his money. In practice, there are also many that are related. I personally would choose only five companies. I will not mention it. The first is in the finance sector. You can pick two but split equally between the two. The second is in transport with railways. The third one is in the energy sector. Fourth necessarily which extracts raw materials. Fifth necessarily with real estate management. That's basically my motto no matter where the companies are located. We always make the best choice by sympathy or what is drilled into our memory from advertisements. But it is better to check back at least ten years to see if these companies were doing well. The other option is to buy from those companies that you really use. So that your money, which you use in everyday life to charge your car or the bank that serves you, also earns from you.  In Canada, there are many penny stocks that are not to be underestimated. Always gather information then invest your money. Don't blame someone else for bad choices. Nothing is ever guaranteed to be good forever. I only express my own opinion. I am not agitating anyone towards anything.

Book awards, a step towards success for authors


Is there any greater recognition for the author of a book than to know that his books are being read? There should also be book prizes. Where he competes with his colleagues for a better book. Plus, the thought of winning is a nice thrill. Like any competition, the author analyzes his work. It is not normal for the first loss to give up. After two or three races, he can take action to make it better or change the way he writes. To choose a genre in which he may be better. It is not exactly decided to write fiction because more is sought after. If he writes poems, there are also many contests. The biggest problem for writers is reaching their readers. At such a time, one of the important things is to win some awards for his book. In addition to giving him optimism, there is also a small advertisement that can bring more readers. There are many book awards. In order to find out exactly which one is for you, you need to browse the Internet and collect information. All this requires a lot of time. That's why I recommend BOOKAWARDPRO. It will save you a lot and direct you where you need to apply for awards and reviews.

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

To the attention of anyone who wants to write books. In general, everyone has something to say to the world. To just write a book and have it as trophies is not a challenge. But the moment you finish it you think it's so easy. Why don't you keep going. I can do it.Then it makes you think of the next one.  By the time you go to publish it the problems start. You consult someone and they encourage you and come on to the next step. At the moment you've already published it and you're expecting sales and you wonder if I wrote it so badly . Do you dislike my story so much. Strange even acquaintances don't say anything to me. The disappointment begins. Really if you don't trust yourself you give up . Well, I tried. But at night when you go to bed the thoughts of the second book come and you don't know what to do anymore. You start getting interested in other authors on social media. But every new idea gives you light and you go looking for another publisher again. Because you don't like what you've chosen. If you really want to succeed this industry is not small. In fact it's probably the most competitive industry in the world. I personally thought of writing two or three books first and then advertising. I didn't care if they sold .I do it for fun. Not that they don't sell at all. For example German in Germany are sold with hard cover or soft cover. But the English one was lame to me. Why. I didn't even have a smartphone . But there is linkedin and facebook. Reserved only for people I know. I don't like publicity that's why I wrote under a pseudonym. I started reading and already understood before starting what to do. Nearly two years I researched . I now know the formula myself. But my best advice is to start by reading from the Dave Chesson-Kindlepreneur blog. There is no better information elsewhere and possibly summarized . I have no idea but this blog if you haven't read it don't hope to succeed. At the very least it will shorten your time by one or two years for success. This is not advertising but just advice to new colleagues
