Creating Value - Part 2
Last time we wrote about the early beginnings of our quest for creating new values. Today we'll continue further. If you haven't read the first part, please find it here:
ADSactly - Creating value Part 1
The ones creating new value were too often plundered and attacked by the armies and marauders. Their decision to fortify their homes gave way to towns slowly growing into existence. The safety was in numbers. This is also one of the reasons why we all stick together in the crypto world by the way. The more of us believe in crypto, the harder it will be to stop the revolution we are a part of.
The growth of towns opened a new direction for creating new values. The ones who did not join armies, did not find enough incentive in plundering and stealing from others and did not feel like spending their lives working the land for the masters, started to create items for others. Craftsmanship was born. Items of daily use, decorative items, sometimes both combined, were made and sold to everyone.

For the first time in history, it was up to a person to invest more time into work if he wanted to make more value for himself. The first entrepreneurs were born. People who decided for themselves and did not need to steal from anyone, plunder lands or work the land for another. It was a great turn that defined the future to some extent. However...
Large groups of people living in the same place and feeling safe made them think beyond the borders of their city, county or kingdom. Explorers started to travel and discover far-away lands. It was a dangerous and demanding task to be an explorer. However, it yields the creation of value for the ones who financed the expeditions.

Exchange of ideas, skills, herbs, items, followed by massive scale plunders and genocides were byproducts of human curiosity and fear of unknown. The drive to see what lies behind the next mountain, next plain, next river or vast oceans always led to a demise of weaker and more naive group of a fellow human in order to amass value. Up to this very day, soldiers are still being sent to foreign lands to fight imperialistic wars under false pretences. At the same time, it seems aggressor's corporations are making vast profits based on the misery of other people. Creating value, right?

The need for transport of all the goods from distant lands bred another caste of entrepreneurs. Merchants of those days took long voyages, bought goods at the source, paid the lowest price possible and brought everything back home. Selling the rare goods amassed vast profits for them. In those days trading was dangerous and it took serious time, courage and resolution to travel far and come back alive, so the profits were understandably high and deservingly so. They were creating new value, even if they didn't produce the goods.
What about today's merchants? :D

An excellent introduction that could be the beginning of an interesting historical film. In fact, these words are true. When there is something that can give people new hope and freedom - there are opponents to this. So it was throughout our entire history.
As we see now, the main world tendency is reduced to the restriction of human freedom. We impose some products or values that we do not need on the business itself. But the main way to control people is money hanging around your neck. That is, the concept is simple - you work and spend money all your life. Exchange time - for money. But if you divide people into castes - that is, those who have that much money. But there are those who have very little money and these people have to work hard. Often, ordinary people have to work there where it is very dangerous and they do not live up to a well-deserved rest.
Some modern cities have become like anthills.
What about today's merchants? I do not think that they create value. Unfortunately, the situation is that traders are looking for easier ways and often they are not bothered by conscience. I know people who are traders. They act simply. They buy goods for $ 10 (for example) and sell it several times more expensive - for $ 30-40. That's the whole business :)
As for the technology of the block chain, it changes the rules of the game. Now people have more opportunities than before. This alignment definitely does not please monopolists and globalists. It is not economically profitable for them. But the more we are, the stronger we are ...
Great continuation ...
Nice story of our history. Will definitely stay tune to your upcoming post to feed my brain of wisdom. Great post
Same rules, same game, just more sophisticated, more deceiving. But humans are always in the quest for freedom and love is still a fact that keep us alive. We are becoming more creative and we are embracing new technologies that allow us to share instead of competing, that allow us to do the things we love to do and that makes us independent from a system that wants to keep us enslave. I would also say that we are changing the rules and the game. We are living very interesting times. This is a great blog, with great opinions of wise people. This moment and my life are enriched by all of you.
He who is willing to work hard and find some way to provide value is deserving of the rewards they earn. All too often there are large entities that seek to take advantage of the work of others or to even oppress the work of those who may provide alternatives or competition. Without those who seek to create where would we be. It is the entrepreneurs and visionaries that open our eyes to the world of possibilities in front of us. Providing value doesn't need to be creating or producing either. It can come in the form of providing services or assistance. Each person has a skill that they can share, you just have to figure out what your skill is and use it. Unfortunately, there are also those who have no interest in sharing or producing or contributing. It is easier to live off the work of others and seek out the easy way. As long as we are humans this will always be part of the nature of how things work.
