What I have learned today [2015/6/28]

1.  Your gut bacteria may explain your mood. Yes, listen to your gut ^^

2. MOOCs increased the quality of education, as educators learn from the best educators and use what they learned in classes.

3. There are more obese people than overweight people in the US. Time to eat less and exercise more. So much happiness and money lost due to obesity. Time to get back on track.

4. Designer waters are selling well. Well...if there is demand...I wonder how many people can even discriminate between different waters...time for a blind taste test :D

5. Ghetto Kids became stars through YouTube. Hope social media keeps bringing more positive change.

What I have learned today [2015/6/27[

1. Old computing languages do not because they are efficient and robust,

2. High blood pressure drug helped cure cocaine and alcohol addictions in rats. Hope it works with humans :D

3. Shoplifting costs $44 billion a year. Time to spend more on forensics and employees. Disgruntled employees steal. The reason why Costco has lower loss is because of the good treatment of their employees.

4. Millionaire helps rescue migrants at sea. This is what I call good use of money. I hope he inspires other rich people to help out more. After all, we all need to be more loving.

5. Family travels across seven countries without flying. Although this is quite impressive, I am not sure if it is good for the young children. Of course it is an experience but how much are the children learning and experiencing? Also, there is a difference of doing trips to maximize learning and cultural exposure and doing things just for the heck of it, which can be cool some times but not wise.

What I have learned today [2015/6/26]

1. Swedish Fund decreases equity. I suppose this is smart with Greece and some kind of crisis that might happen but I am not sure if too active management is good for long term performance, specially for sovereign funds.

2. Kazakhstan produces 40% of uranium worldwide.

3. There are more roll-up than expected.

4. Making money using photos is quite challenging but once you put it online, it will work for you. Still learning the trade~

5. Elevate is well made app because it really tries to engage you to play the game and learn.
