RICHARD BRANSON si BITCOIN

  Un add. agresiv din Yahoo m-a facut sa scriu acest articol, care se refera la magnatul Richard Branson si legatura lui cu noua “gaselnita”/speculatie financiara numita “bitcoin”. In ultimile zile ale lui ian., cand deschideam oricare din conturile de Yahoo, apareau in dreapta, pe spatiul rezervat publicitatii, 2 poze ale lui Branson, avand fata tumefiata de rani si vanatai si spotul: “Richard Branson is ready to quit”.

  Am fost atat de curioasa, incat, in loc sa-i tastez numele in Google search, cum fac de obicei, cand vreau sa aflu o informatie, am apasat pe spot. Dar in loc sa aflu motivul pentru care era ranit, butonul m-a trimetea la un articol laudativ sau “pupincurist”, intitulat: “560 Thousand British Quit Their Jobs After Richard Branson Invests Heavily In New Bitcoin Financial Tech.”, iar linkul este, sau a fost: http://lockzeus.com/richardbtcuk/?sxid=2rzzexe3dars&adid=%24%7BTRAFFICKEDADID%7D&clicktrack=%24%7BCLICKURL%7D&creative=%24%7BLIBRARYADID%7D&device=%24%7BSCREEN_TYPE%7D&domain=%24%7BDOMAIN%7D&lineid=%245a68cbc0e178b10a10e072eb&orderid=%24%7BORDERID%7D&pageurl=%24%7BPAGE_URL%7D&publisherid=%24595267ba1ee0530c846b7e67&subdomain=%24%7BSUB_DOMAIN%7D (care la data publicarii articolului meu, da eroare!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

  Oricum, la data de 1/02, cica erau 116344 comentarii, din care apareau, la sfarsitul articolului, doar 5 si cateva replici. Daca apasai butonul: incarca alte 10 comentarii, nu mergea. Daca apasai butanele de raspuns la comentarii, nu mergeau. Deci n-am putut afla alte comentarii, in afara celor 5 si nici nu am putut raspunde, ceea ce ma face sa ma-ndoiesc de veridicitatea articolului. Cert este, ca daca RB nu si-ar fi dat acordul, nici addul din yahoo si nici articolul din “CNN Tech” semnat: Seth Fiegerman@sfiegerman n-ar fi aparut.

Acum cateva luni sau saptamani, aparea in fiecare cont de yahoo, un email sponsorizat cu RB care promitea sa-i invete pe oameni cum sa se imbogateasca (peste noapte). Nu am fost curioasa sa aflu ce spunea acel email, asa ca nu il pot comenta!

  Dar, fenomenul “bitcoin” exista si devine periculos, mai ales pentru o anume categorie de lume saraca la propriu si la figurat.

  Unul asemanator, numit Caritas, a aparut in Romania (posibil dupa exemple din Vest), in anii imediati de dupa “revolutie” si a lasat muti romani saraci “lipiti”. Tin minte ca si parintii mei au investit o suma modica, ce s-a pierdut, dar nu ne-a afectat, deoarece niciunul din membrii familiei mele n-a crezut vreodata in imbogatiri peste noapte, sau alte “matrapazlacuri facute de smecherii timpului”. Mica investitie a fost facuta doar pentru ca, fenomenul a durat ceva timp, si “ne-a tras putin curentul” sau “spiritul de turma”!

  Se zice despre acest tip de “investitii” financiare, ca sunt de tip piramidal, ceea ce ar insemna ca la baza se afla micii depunatori (credulii), iar catre varf sunt cei care incaseaza “smecherii”! Bitcoin asta indeamna “primii” jucatori sa participe cu sume modice, pentru a castiga in scurt timp sume uriase de bani. Dar, cum banii se fac doar prin: 1) specula (inselarea altora), sau datorita 2) norocului (sa te fi nascut “mostenitor” sau ca produsul tau “muncit” sau, mai mult nemuncit, sa gaseasca cumparatori), nu “vad” cum o investitie intr-o promisiune fara acoperire ar aduce imbogatirea!

  Se vorbeste ca acest, asa zis ban electronic, va fi folosit in viitorul “indepartat”, asta in caz ca nu va disparea, sau volatiliza, asa cum s-a intamplat si cu alte promisiuni de imbogatire fara acoperire!

  Dar, cum, omul a fost dotat cu liberul arbitru (care include ignoranta si prostia), procedeaza, de multe ori ca “turma”. Un proverb romanesc spune: “prost sa fii, noroc sa ai!”; de multe ori au fost prosti care nu numai ca s-au imbogatit, dar au reusit sa-si pastreze averea datorita faptului ca s-au gasit “nevoiasi” inteligenti care i-au slujit, sau pentru ca, adunata, prostia “turmei” a surclasat prostia lui.

  Succesul lui RB, futurologul sau vizionarul secolului, ca si al celorlati bogatasi se datoreaza atat talentului inascut de a sti sa “duca lumea cu pluta” cat mai ales “talentului “ majoritatii de a se lasa “dusa cu pluta”.

  Probabil ca Mazare fostul primar/mascarici al Constantei s-a inspirit in multe aspecte ale vietii si actiunilor lui de la RB. Daca tastati in Google numele lui Richard Branson si dati pe imagini, veti vedea ca ceea ce spun de Mazare poate fi adevarat.

  Unii ar zice ca sunt ranchinoasa, frustrata, invidioasa ca: “eu n-am si ala are!”. Poate asa o fi, dar eu cred mai mult ca este obiectivitate, deoarece eu nu l-am cunoscut si nici n-o sa-l cunosc personal pe RB, fiindca viata lui se desfasoara in paralel cu a mea, deci, logic, nu se pot intersecta. Oricum, eu si Calin, traind o viata paralela cu viata lui RB, nu ne putem amesteca cu “afacerile” lui futuriste.

Cand am avut nesansa sa ne intersectam cu indivizi cu numele Richard, lucrurile nu au mers tocmai bine! Ca in fabula cainele si catelul, nu stiu pe cine vrea RB sa imbogateasca, dar in nici un caz pe catei!

GYPSIES (who they are and what they want)-1st PART

I will have several posts related to gypsies. I will not write here, what I read through different texts or heard from people, but about my and not at last Calin's experience connected with gypsies. I can not say they're a people, that they, in fact, were spread worldwide and took not only the physiognomy of the people, in whose country they settled down (or ... not), but also the language, worship, habits and even nationality. When I was a child, in Romania, my parents went to Indian films, which in a certain period were very popular there (I remember "the Vagabond" with Raj Kapoor). At that time, i.e. in the Communist era, there were many cinemas in Constanta (the city where I lived almost half of my life). Wherever Indian films were broadcast, there were huge queues at the ticket box office. The Romanians had not enough seats, because of the gypsies, who crowded the entrance with their families. That's because, they said, that the Indians were their brothers...

IN THE MEMORY OF JUDIE REGLER - A TRUE STORY WITH A TRAGIC END

FROM THE SERIES: FROM THE HILL,  STRAIGHT TO HOSPITAL    I personally met Judie in May 2007 when I first came to the UK. From then until the end of 2017 I kept in touch by emails and in person, she being one of the very few humans that contributed, beneficial, to the change of our destiny, Calin's and mine.   In 2007 Judie was an active woman; she did not have a family near her, but she had many friends and many more acquaintance. She was honest, maybe too honest, and tried, as much as she could, to help, without discriminating, humiliating or demanding advantages of any kind. Sometimes she behaved strange, she said it was due to a mental illness she'd suffered since childhood. We, myself and Calin, have put these actions of her on the fact that she had too much confidence in what people say, especially psychiatrists and occult groups with whom she was in constant contact, and especially because she drank too much whiskey.   Because this article is pa...

CONSERVATIVE or LABOUR

THE WORLD HAS CHANGED, BUT HISTORY IS REPEATING! (This text is more of a comment than an article, because it is not objective but it expresses my personal views!) The British people have the greatest freedom to choose, but not only they not use their brain in this huge advantage, but in important moments it makes choices that deepen the abyss between rich and poor. Unfortunately, the actual British general elections have a huge influence on the whole world and Europe in particular. As it happened on 2015, so will happen on June 8, 2017. Conservatives will, again, win this elections. I state this, because I rely on the conservative character (to not say, really racist and ignorant) of the majority of British, white natives. Here I will make some points. The English does not like to call himself British, because he does not want to accept that the Scots, the Northern Irish and the Welsh are his brothers. The truth is that Welsh people name themselves only Welsh and the Irish onl...
