money works

money makes the world go round: that's half true. money and people makes the world go round. sad to say, people are letting money make the world go round when it should be the other way around. people are working for money instead of letting money work for the people.

let's take a look at the three kinds of people-money relationship, which i have in mind.

employment: when one is employed, one is working for money. he works to receive money for him to use for daily activity. once depleted, the cycle is repeated. it's advantage: it's basic, no complications and no stress (depending on whose looking at it). drawback: unstable and routinary. once you're laid off, the pay stops and you need to look for another job.

business: when one owns a business, one is working with his money. to clarify, he is helping his money grow by making the business stay afloat. then the owner would hire managers to take charge of the operations so he can sit back. then, from time to time he takes part on the operations. that's better than being an employee, in so many ways. one disadvantage though. it consumes time. not like if you are going be an investor

investor:  when one invests, he uses his money to generate more money. sample would be time deposit, real estate, stocks, bonds, etc. simplest form would be saving up in a bank with compounding interest. that may return the smallest but adding it up to, let's say, 15 years: that's big. 1,500 monthly with 0.5%interest rate for 15 years would have a future value of 281,939.13, regardless of the currency(i think).

final note, make your money work for you. do not just work for money.

html character education

so, now, i've decided to update the tool by adding html character entities page. i haven't uloaded it yet but im hoping it will be sooner. unfortunately, it's getting bigger everytime i dig deeper to the subject. i started with  and reached ſ. so that's about 383 characters already. then, i found out from w3 website http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/sgml/entities.html that there's a €. so i guess this will take long... well, wish me luck. i also stumbled upon this site - http://www.escapecodes.info/ kinda cool with the use of image. i, however, prefer character instead of pictures.

Contextual Stratification - Chapter 13: Boundaries

  Where Things Get Interesting We've built a complete picture: Fields (F) define domains with specific rules. Scales (λ) determine context within those domains. Quanta (Q) are what appears when you observe a field at a scale. Measurability (M) constrains what can appear. The equation Q=Fλ, Q⊆M generates valid frameworks. And this stratification continues infinitely; no ground floor, no ultimate emergence, scales within scales forever. But if reality is structured this way, the most important question becomes: where do the boundaries lie? Boundaries are where one field gives way to another. Where one scale regime transitions to a different regime. Where the measurable space changes. Where frameworks that worked perfectly well suddenly break down. Boundaries are where theories fail, where paradoxes emerge, where the most interesting phenomena occur. Understanding boundaries is understanding the architecture of reality itself. This chapter shows you how to recognize them, what happens...

Contextual Stratification - Chapter 9: Quanta

  Beyond Particles When most people hear "quantum," they think of physics. Subatomic particles. Wave-particle duality. Schrödinger's cat. The weird realm where common sense breaks down and reality behaves in ways that seem impossible. But "quantum" originally just means "discrete amount", a specific, countable quantity as opposed to a smooth continuum. In physics, quanta are the discrete packets of energy or matter that appear when you look at reality closely enough. A photon is a quantum of light. An electron is a quantum of charge and mass. These aren't approximations or models. They're what actually appears when you measure at that scale. The insight of contextual stratification is that "quantum" applies far beyond physics. In any field, at any scale, what you observe comes in discrete, specific forms. Not everything that could theoretically happen does happen. Reality presents itself in definite outcomes, measurable results, speci...
