Taking a break is also an investment

An ordinary day in Laguna Beach.

When I woke up in the morning, I had breakfast with Jo Soo-ah.

―Kim Shin: You can give the two cooks a vacation.

-Lee Jong-yeop: Yep. I will.

It’s not as delicious as the food made by chefs who have worked in hotels, but it was fun to make and eat.

From kimchi fried rice to seafood soybean paste stew and dumpling soup, the menus are not that flashy, but the food is full of sincerity.

“Shall we make gimbap today?”

“like.”

I lived without looking at the news for a long time.

At the end of the day, as Tesla passed the 900 mark, the total balance after disposing of all stocks was $126 billion.

‘You don’t always have to invest. Resting is also important.’

As long as the Biden stimulus package came out and quantitative easing continued, it seemed that stock prices could rise further.

But there is no party that never ends.

When the stock market goes into a downturn, it becomes difficult to sell the shares you own.

The stock price could drop drastically just by the rumor that the stock was being sold.

‘It’s too big to move lightly like a year ago.’

I decided to enjoy the leisure of watching the situation while piling up money in my bank balance.

While choosing ingredients for cooking at the mart with Jo Soo-ah, I did not pay attention to the price.

There may be cheaper or more expensive ones, but the bank balance is too high to worry about those things.

“Shall I buy a can of coffee?”

“yes.”

“How about pork?”

“lion.”

“The vegetables are fresh, so it would be delicious to make a salad.”

“Then you should buy it.”

Is it because of the experience of buying companies for billions of dollars?

I spent small expenses in my daily life and did not think too much about the complexity.

‘I can’t see the price tag at the mart.’

A feeling of growing up.

It was strange that the beggar spirit that had been inscribed to the bone was disappearing.

At night, we talked a lot in the same bed.

“You must have been popular during your college days.”

“No way. It was a complete asshole.”

“Didn’t you have a girlfriend while you were in college?”

“Not at all. I often saw the girls in my department while working part-time at the internet cafe.”

“I think he came often because he liked him.”

“That’s probably not it. I wouldn’t ask the guy I like to remove the ashtray.”

Looking back, it was a sad life.

When I didn’t have money, I tried not to do anything because I was busy making a living.

It’s very sad that I was in my 20s that I wasted like that, but in my 30s, I have a lot of money, so I feel like I’ve become a victor for the rest of my life.

‘I think I know what it feels like to play best.’

As much as I worked hard this year, I enjoyed rest even more.

―Executive Director Ahn Myeong-guk: The corona strain is spreading in the UK.

―Kim Shin: Corona variant?

―Executive Director Ahn Myeong-guk: We are looking into the details, but it is said that the amino acid was altered as the infection spread.

Articles began appearing the day after I received a call from Myung-guk An, my former boss at Biolife.

〈England begins lockdown of corona in London〉

〈Corona massive spread in southern England〉

〈Israel, banned from entering through the UK〉

〈The fear of the mutant corona covers the world〉

〈Mutant Corona from South Africa〉

〈World stock markets fall all at once on fears of the coronavirus originating from the UK〉

Corona has spread greatly in the UK.

Additional information soon followed.

―Executive Director Ahn Myeong-guk: Biolife has secured and analyzed samples of the variant corona.

―Kim Shin: The work is done really quickly.

―Executive Director Ahn Myeong-guk: As soon as the variant corona was confirmed in the UK, it was brought directly through MI6.

It’s proof that Biolife is being recognized around the world in relation to COVID-19.

There was nothing to worry about.

―Kim Shin: Is the K-vaccine effective against the variant corona?

Over 200 million vaccines have been produced and vaccinated in countries.

The money invested in Bio Life was also a problem, and I was vaccinated.

Like Jo Soo-ah, Lee Jong-yeop, and Oh Myung-woo, people around him have also been vaccinated.

―Executive Director Ahn Myeong-guk: The British government believes that it is effective.

―Executive Director Ahn Myeong-guk: Dr. Lee Ho-yeon is analyzing the virus. It is said that the result comes out quite quickly because it is analyzed through artificial intelligence.

―Executive Director Ahn Myeong-guk: We plan to also look at how effective the K-vaccine is.

-Kim Shin: Yes. Thank you for your hard work.

When I had my own experience and grasped the situation, I was able to take countermeasures more quickly.

“What happen?”

“They say corona is spreading in England.”

“It’s also appearing on TV.”

I watched TV with Jo Soo-ah at the mansion in Laguna Beach.

Lee Seong-e’s television.

The world changes quickly, but I wanted to be comfortable even for a moment.

The community of Seohak ants heated up.

―Fully blocked entry of British nationals from Germany and France.

―The New York stock market crashed. LOL

―Bitcoin is also falling.

―The WHO said that the contagiousness of the variant corona would be much higher.

-Isn’t this the end of the world?

―I don’t know if the world is ruined, but I’m sure it’s ruined.

-why?

―You gave all your money to Tesla. I’m cracking up

―Shouldn’t you have listened to Kim Shin-hyung? I said you have to get out when everyone is greedy.

-ah. I sold it then, but when the stock rose again, I thought Kim Shin-hyung was wrong.

―You guys who only believed in quantitative easing and zero interest rates and invested lol The Fed is not God. But Kim Shin-hyung is a god.

Na Sang-guk posted a comment on the Seohak ant bulletin board on his cell phone.

Comments praising Kim Shin.

‘As expected, my judgment was wrong.’

When he was overly greedy, Shin Kim must have made a judgment considering the world stock market situation, the international economy, and even the epidemic.

“As you all know, now is the time to take a break.”

“Yes. you’re right.”

Seohak Ant’s study group.

In Korea, there was a boom in US stock investment this year and a lot of profits were made.

Investors called themselves Seohak ants and devoted themselves to studying overseas stocks.

Na Sang-guk spoke to 20 people in the study group.

“The wise investor does not have to worry about having a pile of cash. It’s a good idea to say that money makes you work. But if you make one wrong investment, you lose all your hard-earned profits.”

“you’re right.”

“A break is also an investment. Let’s wait patiently until Kim Shin gives the signal.”

December in Laguna Beach was cozy.

A mutant corona appeared, and the world was excited, but I had a sweet time with Jo Soo-ah.

―Oh Myeong-woo: Aren’t you bored there? Shall we go out to play at the end of the year?

Oh Myung-woo’s text.

I’ve been living with this guy all year, but this time it was difficult.

-Kim Shin: I’m not bored. I’m in love.

―Oh Myeong-woo: Dating? with who?

―Kim Shin: You’ve met someone before.

I was debating what to say, but I decided to be honest.

The wedding with Han Chae-won is a memory I don’t want to recall, but it still happened in the past.

―Kim Shin: Do you remember the person who introduced me as a team junior at my wedding?

―Oh Myeong-woo: A female employee who was incredibly pretty?

―Kim Shin: He came to America and is living with me.

―Oh Myung-woo: You are lying.

I didn’t even hide it from Oh Myung-woo, and I even thought of introducing him sooner or later.

―Kim Shin: (Photo of Jo Soo-ah smiling at the beach)

-Kim Shin: Can you see it?

-Oh Myeong-woo: Ah… … .

―Myungwoo Oh: Congratulations. But why do you want to kill me like this?

I received a brief report on the management situation of Earth Resources from Myung-Woo Oh.

Business performance that changes units every week or two weeks.

―Oh Myeong-woo: The game is the real thing.

―Kim Shin: Sales of games were relatively low.

―Oh Myung-woo: That’s right. But games always have one room.

In the era of Corona, healing games and management games have become popular.

With the launch of MMORPG games, the total number of users also increased.

―Oh Myeong-woo: It is inferior to competitors that have AAA-level masterpieces. But we are giving our subscribers a lot of fun.

―Oh Myeong-woo: This is an opportunity to prove that games are truly popular art. Many game companies that share a great culture. In particular, new game companies that have just been established are coming on their own.

―Myungwoo Oh: We will actively support new game companies. That would give them development and distribution opportunities!

-Kim Shin: Yes. Let’s work hard. only believe in you

Choi Won-seok, a dermatologist in Busan.

After going on a blind date with Jo Soo-ah, he kept thinking about her.

“At that level, she is not lacking as my girlfriend.”

I was looking for a marriage partner in order to introduce myself to my parents.

I wondered if Jo Soo-ah would be able to score well.

―Choi Won-seok: Good morning. Are you ready to go to work?

―Choi Won-seok: I was treating a patient today and I suddenly thought of Sua.

I tried to score points by sending text messages every day.

‘I’m working in Seoul. If that’s the case, there’s another way to attack.’

I wonder if he misses Busan.

―Choi Won-seok: After the treatment, I plan to take a walk in Haeundae today. I want to go to the place where we had dinner together the other day.

―Choi Won-seok: If you come to Busan later, I will look for a restaurant so that we can have a meal together!

While stimulating homesickness, he sent text messages to earn points little by little.

When I called, they didn’t answer because they were busy, and even when I sent text messages, they rarely answered.

‘Aren’t you coming over to me? okay. That’s why I’m more motivated.’

I heard from the first meeting that there was a guy I liked.

I needed patience when I went to medical school and took the doctor’s exam.

The sense of accomplishment that comes from working hard for a long time.

A coveted woman like Jo Soo-ah would have been willing to put in the effort.

‘Anyone can have someone they like. But in the end, I just need to make them like me.’

Even if I contact Jo Soo-ah, he does not reply well.

Fortunately, the younger sister of an acquaintance in Busan was the best friend Jo Soo-ah went to high school with.

“brother. Sua’s company takes an extended vacation and goes to America.”

“Why America?”

“It’s a trip. I won’t tell you why.”

“okay?”

Choi Won-seok regretted that he would not be able to meet Jo Soo-ah for a while if he was not in Korea, but changed his mind.

Endless positivity and effort!

Isn’t this the driving force that made me who I am today?

“Do you know where we are going in America?”

“yes. I heard it’s near Los Angeles.”

“Can you give me a detailed location?”

“why?”

“Go to America and look for it. Wouldn’t it be nicer if we met by chance?”

“really?”

Jo Soo-ah’s friend built up a good impression by saying that they went on a blind date on the premise of marriage.

“But Oppa, if you tell me about this, Sua’s personality will dislike it.”

“Am I a bad person? It’s not like I’m going to the US to stalk you.”

“still… … .”

“If it goes well, I’ll buy you a bag.”

“An expensive one?”

“I’ll buy you a luxury item, a luxury item.”

That’s how I decided to plan my trip to the US.

It was the end of the year, and the hospital was free as more than 1,000 confirmed corona patients came out.

Meet Jo Soo-ah, and get a corona vaccine in the United States for safety.

‘Soo-ah, wait a minute. I’ll be there soon.’
