Elon Musk


Impressed with his words, that's my inspiration for this story. Does anyone know who first started sending money online? Okay the credit goes to Elon Musk. Started with his brother came to known as Paypal. He said one time if everyone is working for eight hours and you also do the same thing, you'll reach success just as them. If you wish to be on the top you must put in 16 hours when everyone is just doing eight hours. Today Elon Musk doesn't need an introduction to anyone. He is today the wealthiest man on the earth. I'm only going to concentrate on his achievements and failures before he came to be known as where he is today. He is the owner of the electric vehicle company Tesla, the founder of Space-X in collaboration with NASA sending and launching rockets to the space. To his record his rockets leave to space every six days, that's his achievement. His first three rocket launchings failed miserably and he almost became a bankrupt. He was planning his fourth space launch putting all his money into the fourth launch. That's all what he had left after the first three miserable failures in the space-x. This was his only last chance or go bankrupt. He took the risk without looking back and this fourth attempt of space-x was a big success. After that the rest is history. In a recent bid to takeover a giant social media company he fell back (the name of the social media platform is kept confidential). In the end the takeover didn't materialise. He made an offer of $44 billions, but he didn't get what he wanted from the company and the deal never went through. On a recent visit to the Vatican, he met the Pontiff and shook hands with him. If you're interested to know what he plans to do this Christmas, you may ask him directly.

Banking & Finance: Mint

In the world of banking, a mint is not a place where coins are made, but rather a term used to describe a financial institution that has been granted permission by a central bank to issue banknotes. This role is also known as a note-issuing bank or a currency board. The concept of a mint in banking is rooted in the history of currency. In the past, coins were minted by governments or private entities, and they served as a means of payment and a store of value. However, as economies grew and trade expanded, the demand for larger denominations of currency increased. This led to the development of banknotes, which were issued by private banks as a way to facilitate transactions and provide a convenient alternative to coins. As the use of banknotes grew, governments became concerned about the potential for inflation and the impact of private banknote issuance on the overall stability of the economy. In response, central banks were established to regulate the issuance of banknotes and ensur

Kamala Harris: Missing the Moment to Define Her Leadership

Transcript: The recent debate featuring Kamala Harris and Donald Trump was an important moment for the Democratic nominee to solidify her position as a leader. Yet, instead of seizing the opportunity to project confidence and vision, Kamala seemed to falter, weighed down by personal fears and memories of long-standing struggles. A key point that stood out was how Kamala Harris seemed to forget the very words she once made her mantra in her career as a prosecutor: "Kamala Harris for the people." These five words, often repeated by her during her time in courtrooms, represented her fight for justice and equality. However, during the debate, this sense of purpose seemed absent. The stage was set for her to remind everyone why she was the candidate for all people, but she failed to deliver a message that would resonate on that larger stage. Rather than focusing on a forward-thinking vision, Harris spent much of her time reflecting on the negatives, particularly issues of racism,

Finance & Banking: Brief history of the modern bank

The history of the modern bank can be traced back to ancient times when people used various methods of storing and exchanging wealth. One of the earliest forms of banking originated in Mesopotamia around 2000 BC, where temples served as the first lenders. These temples provided loans to farmers in the form of grain or silver, with interest rates varying depending on the time of repayment. In ancient Egypt, the precursor to modern banking emerged with the establishment of grain banks that stored surplus crops and provided loans to farmers during periods of scarcity. These banks also served as intermediaries for international trade, exchanging goods for gold and silver. The concept of banking continued to evolve in ancient Greece and Rome, with moneylenders and wealthy individuals offering loans to merchants and traders. The Romans, in particular, developed a sophisticated banking system that included the issuing of promissory notes, letters of credit, and the establishment of the first
