Genius scientist Newton went bankrupt while doing stocks.

Even Einstein, the greatest physicist, blew away his Nobel prize money in stocks.

[I can calculate the movements of heavenly bodies, but not human madness.]

A quote from Newton.

Why can’t financial experts and economists make money after studying hard?

What would economists say in media interviews that the value of coins is garbage?

If you show the taste of Ripple, which rises ten times a month, wouldn’t it be possible to throw away the theory of economic academies and start investing?

I didn’t trust my head while studying stocks.

‘Money is not a theory. It might be right to understand based on greed.’

Basic common sense about stocks.

Business needs to learn.

In order to make money, it was considered fundamentally more important than anything else to understand the greed, fear, and madness of humans.

―It makes me fall for the ripple.

―Ripple 28th floor collapsed

―Now let’s get into Ripple

―I am currently on the 42nd floor of Ripple.

―Bithumb 2300 on the verge of breaking

―I live on the 45th floor, why is it so noisy downstairs? ㅠㅠ

Numerous desires gather into coins.

A surge beyond expectations.

When it changed direction and began to plummet, it was falling very fast, just like when it was stacked up.

‘It was only yesterday that Ripple made tens of millions of dollars every time it rose by 100 won or 200 won.’

As the day went on, the price of Ripple fell.

‘If I had kept it, I would have lost nearly half of my property.’

I feel like I made some money.

It’s not that my wealth has actually increased, but I’m just glad I avoided a huge risk.

It is difficult to guess the speed and width of the decline as much as Ripple surged.

―Na Sang-guk: Not yet. It’s down by half now. let’s be strong I’m sorry

―Park Hwa-young: I believed the manager’s words. I lost 20 million won in one week.

―Na Sang-guk: Did it rise 10 times last month? It was cut in half, but I have to hold on to it and not sell it. So you can earn when you go up.

―Lee Eun-young: So, when will you go up again?

―Na Sang-guk: It fell a lot, but it’s a good thing. There was only one thing left to do now.

―Bokyung Ko: You said that Manager Kim sold everything? Manager Kim really did a good job!

―Park Hwa-young: Assistant Manager Kim bought it when it was cheap and sold it at a high price. You should have invested that much. We just trust me and the manager. I will never coin again. How are you going to finance your wedding? really!

―Lee Min-young: Manager Kim. When are you back?

The number of people in the group chat room was reduced to 34 people.

It seemed that several staff members had left.

and… … .

‘It feels like a human indicator.’

Life in San Francisco living with a friend’s house.

On the recommendation of Myeong-Woo Oh, I applied for a tour through a travel agency.

“Is it okay if we go around together?”

“yes?”

“Lyla’s sister. I came to play in New York this time. I want to show him around San Francisco.”

I thought Lila was from California, but it turned out that she was born and raised in New York.

My younger sister graduated from the Department of Economics and Finance at the State University of New York and was preparing to find a job.

“Are you 23 now?”

“yes. I saw it in pictures. It was very pretty.”

“How can I live with a divorced man with an 8-year age gap? And did I tell Lila that I’m divorced?”

Family is a precious law, so if she knew that I was a divorced man, wouldn’t Laila, who commutes with me in the morning and evening, be reluctant?

I was worried about harming Oh Myung-woo.

“I didn’t speak. but what does it matter How could such a pretty and smart kid ever like you?”

“ah. That’s right.”

It was understood in an instant.

Even though they are of different races, there is a limit to becoming close just because they travel together for the day.

“hello. This is Kim Shin.”

“My name is Ellie.”

It was a blonde beauty who looked like Lila.

A woman so pretty that it was hard to look at her face from the front came out in a white T-shirt and jeans.

“Have a good trip.”

“yes. thank you.”

Oh Myung-woo, Layla goes to work.

I drove to the travel agency with Ellie.

It was my first time driving into downtown San Francisco, so I took several wrong turns.

“Are you running a company in Korea?”

“yes.”

“If it’s not an excuse, I wonder what kind of company it is.”

“It is a pharmaceutical company.”

“A company like Merck?”

“It’s ophthalmology. Vision correction or lenses, cameras, glasses. Well, we sell a variety of things.”

While driving on the road for the first time, he calmly answered Ellie’s question sitting next to him.

We boarded the Big Bus in downtown San Francisco.

A course where you ride a double-decker bus, listen to the guide’s explanation, and go around the tourist spots one after another.

Chinatown, North Beach, de Young Museum, Golden Gate Bridge.

At each tourist point, I was able to get off at any time in the middle to take a look and board the next big bus.

bruise! bruise!

Dogs and cats on the street roamed around.

Nice guys who come and lick when I hold out my hand.

“Do you like animals?”

“I like it. Maybe even more than people.”

Ever since I was young, animals have been especially on the side of following me.

Was it when I was 6 years old?

It’s dangerous now that I think about it, but I once reached out to a large dog roaming the street.

growl.

Even if the dog barked menacingly, if I stayed still, he would come and lick my hand.

How do you communicate better with animals?

Ellie took pictures here and there with her cell phone.

“San Francisco is a fun place. Pleasant.”

“Is this city a tourist destination for people living in the US?”

“Don’t you go sightseeing in other cities in Korea?”

“ah.”

Hearing it, I understood.

Koreans go to tourist destinations like Busan and Gangneung a lot.

“What do you want for lunch?”

“I want to eat Korean food.”

I ate bulgogi at a restaurant I found through a search.

We had a little bit of a personal story.

“When are you going to go back to Korea?”

“I don’t know. I was supposed to be back in a few days.”

It’s only been a few days, but I’ve seen and learned a lot.

I have friends I haven’t seen in a long time, and I thought that I would like to stay longer in the US.

“When is Ellie going to New York?”

“Well. I don’t know.”

“yes?”

“I have to get a job, but getting a job is not difficult. Before that, I want to go on a trip.”

She graduated from a prestigious university with excellent grades and was even beautiful in appearance.

Wall Street financial companies were her job targets, but she said she had already received several letters of recommendation from professors and celebrities.

“I see.”

If you work on Wall Street, you will be in a big money business.

Everyone wants to do something like that, and so do I.

It was enough just to do it with my own money without having to get a job.

Ten days have passed since I stayed at Oh Myeong-woo’s house.

‘I got too many.’

Even if the startup investment failed later, the help he gave after taking off his feet.

I gained and used all my personal connections, influence, and all the knowledge I had, but it was impossible unless I was a real friend.

‘I guess I’ll have to change the house.’

I went to a nearby real estate agency and looked at what was on sale for apartments in the same building.

“Three rooms. I have two bathrooms. How are you?”

“It’s good.”

I looked around and signed a contract with a higher floor and a larger house.

It would have been nice if there was a charter, but since it is a system that cannot be found in the United States, I chose to just buy it.

I am also happy if there is a place where I can stay comfortably in the US at any time.

The problem was to recommend Oh Myung-woo to move.

Oh Myeong-woo was a conservative and picky guy in this part.

‘Between friends, they’ll be angry at me for asking me why I’m getting something like this.’

A friend who gives something, but hates receiving it.

Especially if it has to do with money.

“Myungwoo, I have something to show you.”

So even when I took him to the three-bedroom house on the 15th floor, Oh Myung-wu’s expression was not very good.

“I like my house. It’s a house I earned myself, and I have no intention of relying on you.”

“yes. know.”

Semi-basement.

Even when he lived in that shabby house, he said he didn’t want to be taken care of, and he always paid half of the monthly rent.

It took some skill to convince.

“I think I will come to America often in the future. Wouldn’t it be better to have multiple rooms if you want to go on a date with Lila while I’m staying?”

“Well.”

Oh Myeong-woo thought about it for about three seconds in the living room, then shook his head.

“You can go on a date outdoors. And I’m trying, but honestly, there’s no guarantee that things will work out with Lyla.”

The first plan failed.

Then, what about the second plan?

“Let’s decorate one room like a game room.”

“yes?”

“I have several computers installed in my room. And we always play games together in that room.”

When we were in college, our only hobbies were games.

We took turns playing games on one computer and only played free games on our phones.

It’s a plan made by remembering those days.

“It will be really fun.”

Oh Myung-woo decided to move house right away.

* * *

I moved my luggage to the elevator and went to the computer store to buy parts for a high-performance computer.

There was no Yongsan electronics store called Yongdon in the US, but I was thinking of buying parts and assembling a computer myself.

Oh Myeong-wu asked cautiously.

“Which graphics card should I use?”

“They say the 1080 is quite usable and good.”

“really?”

Oh Myung-wu’s mouth opened as if it would tear.

What a smile full of happiness

Although I feel like a virtuoso, I was also careful that my computer should be set to high specifications.

Even if you search the web, it is very pleasant if it appears 0.1 seconds faster.

After disposing of the old computer used in the semi-basement and using a new computer, the satisfaction was great.

“I heard graphics cards have become very expensive because of coin mining?”

“it’s okay. just buy it.”

“What about the CPU?”

“What do you like?”

“Ryzen is out. It has many advantages over Intel.”

“Then let’s go with the highest grade in Ryzen.”

A 34-inch high-resolution monitor used by people who do graphics work, including CPU, motherboard, and graphics card, and expensive speakers. It even has a great sound system.

It was quite expensive, but… … He had enough wealth to take it for granted.

“I need to buy some furniture too.”

“yes. okay.”

After looking around the computer store, I headed to the furniture store.

A bed, chair, desk, etc. were needed, and the sofa in the living room was also intended to be sized for four people.

After getting married, I know that the comfort of a sofa is more important than anything else.

“Myungwoo, how do you like this sofa?”

“Well. I think it’s good.”

Oh Myung-woo suddenly showed an annoying appearance at the furniture store.

A look that is only interested in the computer to assemble at home.

Furniture was purchased with roughly appropriate items, and then it was an electronics store.

“Buy a television, a cordless vacuum cleaner, an air purifier, a washing machine, and a refrigerator.”

“okay.”

I have a lot of interest in TVs and wireless vacuum cleaners, and I roughly chose air purifiers, washing machines, and refrigerators with large capacities.
