Simple history and future of USD

 American dollar had ordinary value

It asked Saudi Arab and others to accept oil payments from countries only in dollar, in exchange for US security 

Every country started buying dollar

Dollar artificially went up in value

Then US could import anything for dirt cheap 

Above that, US kept printing dollar

That meant, US could buy anything for almost free as long as dollar value was many times value of other currencies (actual productivity of US dollar was v v less)


If dollar now losses value, import costs will sky rocket. Dollar hyped value will collapse US will be in deep crisis

15 laws of Opportunities

  

  1. Every opportunity has a shelf life– delay too long, and it expires.

  2. There is opportunity after every opportunity – missing one doesn’t mean the end.

  3. No opportunity is the same – each carries its own timing, risk, and reward.

  4. Opportunities rarely announce themselves – they often disguise as problems, risks, or extra work.

  5. Preparedness amplifies opportunities – the more ready you are, the bigger the door that opens.

  6. Opportunities multiply when acted upon – seizing one often creates more.

  7. Most opportunities demand sacrifice – you can’t grab them without letting go of comfort or something else.

  8. Perception creates opportunities– two people see the same situation, one sees a problem, the other sees potential.

  9. Opportunities test courage more than skill – the fear of failing blocks more doors than lack of ability.

  10. Missed opportunities teach, seized opportunities transform – both have value, but only one moves you forward.

  11. Opportunities often come dressed as small beginnings – dismissing them as “too small” can cost you something huge later.

  12. Not all opportunities are meant for you – chasing every door spreads you thin; wisdom is in choosing.

  13. Opportunities respect speed and decisiveness – hesitation is often the difference between getting it and watching someone else take it.

  14. The bigger the opportunity, the lonelier the path – few will see what you see, until you make it real.

  15. Opportunities compound with relationships – doors open faster and wider through trust, networks, and goodwill.
