How the objectives are achieved. How to act in certain situations

In fact, my whole second book is about that. How to prepare in advance. How to choose a team. How to act in certain situations. But there are several pages of Prince Till winning the duel for Princess Nessia. At first glance, it looks like an ordinary fairy tale about a prince and a princess. But if, a person can not only read but also understand and assimilate what is written. He can learn from Prince Till's actions. While everyone else is focused on showing off their skills to others and constantly staring at the princess. They lose concentration. They forget the main task. Only Prince Till is focused on the obstacles themselves. This applies with full force in our daily life. Many people are interested in what others think about his photos on social networks. How many people will like it? What blouse to buy to look good. Where to take the photo to attract the attention of others. His thoughts are focused on others, and how they praise him. It doesn't matter if, will something stupid or dangerous for him. Will these photos in time not be detrimental to him. The important thing is to get more likes. Goals are in the background. Therefore, it takes much longer to achieve them. If it reaches them at all. I soon discovered that Bill Gates was unhappy with the Internet. I have no idea exactly, but the internet is at least 70% full of nonsense. I looked at the latest study. The Programme for International Student Assessment is a test that assesses the functional literacy of students in different countries around the world and their ability to apply knowledge in practice. The results are definitely getting worse. It's because of social media. Yes, I believe that the educational system is already outdated for the time. Yes, it should be optimized. People, don't concentrate on their goals, just on social media. There is nothing rosy in our future.

Problems with energy sources

I came across an article in Visual CapitalistFossil fuels account for nearly 90 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions. Energy production does not only lead to carbon emissions. This can cause accidents and air pollution, which hurts human life. Interestingly, coal produces 820 tons of CO₂ per gigawatt. The Petrol produces 720 tons of CO2 per gigawatt. Natural gas produces 490 tons of CO₂ per gigawatt. Biomass 78-230 tons of CO₂ per gigawatt. Hydropower 34 tons of CO₂ per gigawatt. Solar 5 tons of CO₂ per gigawatt. Wind 4 tons of CO₂ per gigawatt. Nuclear energy is 3 tons of CO₂ per gigawatt. More interestingly, Air pollution and accidents from the extraction and combustion of coal fuels are responsible for about 25 deaths per terawatt-hour, according to Our World in Data? Of solar, wind, and nuclear are only 0.03 deaths per terawatt-hour of eleĸtpoeĸng. What follows? We have a choice to keep harming ourselves or switch to the safer for humans as soon as possible. I know there is no magic wand to change everything overnight. But like any normal, human being it is good to do everything in our power to switch to safer energy sources as quickly as possible. In my third book 'Heir to the Dynasty' I even stress about this in general.

Multiply your money with the dividend kings - Money as it moves/works/grows

 Some companies have been paying dividends for over fifty years. What this means. Kind of instead of getting interest from the bank. This is the one plus. The other main option is that they also increase in value. If you receive a salary and have no loans. Some numbers are accumulating in your account that you cannot spend. As it turns out, you have such an opportunity almost every month. Money is accumulating in your bank account, but is it outpacing inflation? I do not believe it. However, if you invest this excess money in a developed business/company with dividends/. You have an opportunity to manage your money. A way to make money work for you. Besides growing, you can also get interest on your money constantly.

Let's learn from the successful - Everything in life is not luck

 Everyone interested in investing in stocks, I guess, has at least heard of him. Author of books and "teacher" of the next generations of financiers. Benjamin Graham is one of the successful professional investors, researcher of financial markets, and lecturer at Columbia University. Graham was the first to clearly distinguish investing from speculating. It defines investments as stock market operations carried out based on detailed analysis, from which a satisfactorily high return can be expected at a low level of risk. Any other way of trading, according to him, is speculative. He has indeed left a lot of materials with which we can gain knowledge. But certainly, his principles are interesting and qualitatively oriented. Principle No. 1 Always invest within safe limits This is a principle for buying a stock at a significant discount from its intrinsic value, which assumes, in addition to bringing a high return, but also minimizing risk. This concept is very important for investors to note that value buying can provide significant gains after the market inevitably revalues the stock and raises it to its fair value. It also provides downside protection if things don't go as planned and the business takes a nosedive. Principle #2 Expect volatility and profit from it Investing in stocks means dealing with volatility. Instead of fleeing the market during turmoil, the smart investor welcomes corrections as a chance to find excellent buying opportunities. Use it to find good deals or take profits when investments become too overvalued. And remember, Graham's philosophy was, first and foremost, to protect capital and then try to grow it. Principle #3 Know what kind of investor you are. Graham advises every investor to know themselves. To illustrate this, he makes a clear distinction between the different groups operating in the stock market: Speculators vs. Investors. Not all people in the market are investors. Graham believed that it was very important for everyone to determine whether they were an investor or a speculator. The difference is simple: the investor views the stock as part of a business and a shareholder, the owner of that business, while the speculator views himself as a player in expensive securities with no intrinsic value. Look in the mirror and ask yourself this question. Am I a speculator or an investor? If you feel like an investor, you are likely to stay longer on the stock market. Because you believe that this business can feed you. If you feel like a speculator, you are much more likely to beat the market than an investor. But there are always little problems in life. As a speculator, you will pay much more fees. Load frequent purchases and sales. The probability of hitting a mine under your feet increases. Everything in life is not luck.

Powerful companies in the near future- My personal opinion

The companies that will produce hydrogen, batteries, electricity, water purification, and robots. I think companies that offer robots for rent will become really stable. They have a very good future. Not that there aren't any. Currently, some offer cars and construction equipment. But I'm talking about robots that will perform the work process of the average person. They will compete with a person in almost all activities. Small companies will not have the opportunity to immediately implement them in their production. Their rent will be more profitable than a worker. This will give a very big boost to the first ones who start to deal with renting out robots. If you have visited technical fairs, you know that the world changes by the hour. I'm a person who doesn't have a smartphone yet. But I can't forget 1998. I was assembling my own computer. Little by little, many technologies have appeared since then. In these 25 years, how many things have changed? I can't even imagine what it will be like in another 25 years. Flying a drone for sure won't even be in vogue and out of fashion. But whoever controls the energy, will drive the train. But definitely, by now there were 30 companies strong in the automotive industry. Now that more than 16,000 parts are lost to produce one car. Many companies became car manufacturers. But I am sure that there will still not be more than 100 companies that will withstand the competition. But their strength will be in good software and batteries that last the most. The most interesting thing is what actions the governments will take. To protect ordinary people from penury. Yes, they provide bread.

Quotes from my third book. 'The heir of the dynasty'

I hope it will be on the market by the end of January 2024. I took the liberty of posting long quotations. Certainly, some readers may, after reading this book, accuse me of being against poor people. Nothing of the kind. They can take lessons from her.
1. Only they could not control their own children and the weather
 2. Confidence in oneself wins, and trust in others
 3. Okay, let's say I'm having a bad day. You are over the moon with happiness. I come and ruin your day, how will you feel.
  4. I don't know, I'm looking for someone who will like me, soul and heart not only physically
 5. We respected each other so much that we were afraid to share our feelings in case it didn't work out. 
 6. I have no idea how rich you are. But that's enough, to waste your time with me a poor student, do you really like me that much.-
  7. You may have lied to me up to this point, but from now on, just don't do it. I will feel you and you will lose me.
   8. It is one thing to know that you will have a test today and to have prepared, it is another thing to rely on someone to give you advice.
  9. As much as a person thinks about something, the events themselves cause them to happen. Even easier than we imagine.
10. Bad thoughts only complicate our lives.
11. We have to let some things happen by themselves.
12. You have one life and it is yours. Only you can determine and choose how it goes. The most important thing is that you like it
13. Imagination is a corridor to the new
14. The most important thing is to think about the task itself. She enlightens us sometimes. But the important thing is not to give up and to be persistent
   15. When you feel tired, stop and collect energy from nature
16. I guess you have a rich soul, at least I think so. We are thus trained to communicate only with people who have rich souls and they are rich in every way
17. The poor man just finds an excuse for me by blaming the rich man for all the troubles of the earth.
18. The poor always discuss the neighbor or someone else which is a waste of time, the rich think about how to produce a product that will be recognized by more people.
19.-Okay, what do you think about money? Mary asked
-Measure of value, to measure a given work or value of a product or service. People use it to make things easier when one thing is exchanged and it changes according to supply and demand
20.-He who controls money does not need to be afraid of it. But he who cannot control them always falls short. No matter how many he has, he still won't be able to handle them. That is why there are poor and rich. The difference is in money management.
21. The least starts with investing knowledge. Almost every town has a library. He has to prepare and find a way to invest.
22. The ordinary person has no idea that the little money that he keeps in the bank works for the business. His pension money is also in stocks and government securities. With the money he collects to buy a property over the years, inflation melts it away
23. My conclusion is that when you have something, you don't pay attention to it. If you don't have it, you strive for it.
24. Now with the new technologies, many people have the opportunity to get the necessary information. But they spend their time for the simplest possible entertainment, but not to become literate. 25. You can write something simple in an hour, and it goes around the world like lightning as if it is something great, but if it is something meaningful, they don't even pay attention to it
26. The way of life is very complicated, but if we harness our energy into something we believe in and like, it will seem wonderful.
27. People do not openly like to be helped. In today's world, this is even more true. Go to someone who needs help, give him a hand, and in a year he will make you the blackest devil. Therefore, for the last three hundred years, our kind has worked by indirectly helping.
28. If you know the formula, every task is easy
29. Sometimes we are so consumed by our goals that we forget or neglect our loved ones. I realized this was a mistake. With good will, one can find time for everything. I can't go back in time and fix my mistakes. I am only asking you to forgive me. I love you very much, Nesia said and hugged her daughter tightly.
30. Many of the people we call great have obviously sacrificed a lot but left something significant behind. But no one thinks about the people who were by their side and supported him and I'm sure that they sacrificed more.
31. It is not a question of tearing the sock and then sewing it up. Yes, he does work, but he always steps on the stitched me and we feel it. The best solution is conversations
32. I don't want to offend you, but regardless of my age, I have enough knowledge to solve any complex issue without consultants. I am not afraid of anything or anyone. I don't need anything. Everyone here has duties and fulfills them. I don't care about business. There are people who care about him.
33. We can't take back the past no matter how much we want, but we can reward the future as we wish





A small task of great importance to any investor.

This is not a question for traders, but for investors. Assume that you know a noble, rich person who believes in you. He agrees to give you ...
