It's not easy to be depressed!



I totally agree with Charlie Brown.

Do some sport, walk straight as much as you can and smile. 

All problems will be gone.

Smart Turks

What make sense to me is 

1.Rich northern populations moving to Spain, Portugal & Italy. why? Security, cheapness & Sun. Besides it's more fun.(Germans in Greece) With warm weather people live longer.

2.Poor southern populations to move north to make money. (Turks in Germany)

What does not make sense?

1.Romanians move to Spain or Italy. They can't make money and they don't have money to live in Spain or Italy.

Don't take your girl to a cheap restaurant!

People value more expensive items. So let's give them what they need? how? You cannot price a commodity (indifferent product) very dearly. But if you create something unique about your product you can charge more and people are willing to pay as long as your product is not 100% comparable with the rest.
That is the reason the marketing man is the most important person in a corporation.


One of the strange things about human beings is that they value only that which has a price. The free schools of America, and the free public libraries, do not impress people because they are free. This is a major reason why so many people find it necessary to acquire additional training after they quit school and go to work.

Napoleon Hill 1936

Price is rarely the most important thing. A cheap product might sell some units. Somebody gets it home and they feel great when they pay the money, but then they get it home and use it and the joy is gone.
What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives everything its value.

You have no idea how expensive it is to look this cheap.

I don't think this can be true !

Unsold cars waiting to be scraped

I guess they cannot sell those cars at 20,000 USD because if they did why would people buy cars at 100,000 USD !

As I said i don't know if this is true but i have a feeling that Deflation is here to stay. There is oversupply of everything in the world

I would not bet on Samsung

iPhone sales have been on a tear recently, while Samsung's smartphone lineup has shown its first real signs of struggle in many years — a trend that led some analysts to believe that Apple had retaken the lead as the world's largest smartphone manufacturer. Now, Gartner, one of the industry's top tracking and research firms, is also claiming victory for Apple. Its latest report indicates that Apple edged out Samsung by selling 74.8 million iPhones, narrowly edging out Samsung's 73 million smartphones sold in Q4 last year.
