  1. I get that fractional MTC helps to facilitate transactions. I think that the fact that by simply keeping money around you get the appreciation of the productivity/GDP growth would disincentivize some spending. Would it not cause the economy to not grow or grow very slowly?
  2. Thanks for the reply. If the value of the money goes up, is it that an incentive to not spend money? i.e., if a paper clip is cost a 1 MTC today, I'd be incentivized to not spend that 1 MTC, as a year from now, that paper clip will cost only 0.5 MTC. This would in turn reduce economic activity?
  3. @Vish_ram In your Mar's example, given that limited supply of Mar's coin, how does its economy grow? how is it measured then? the current capitalist system works with the underline assumption that one can 'create/print' money, afaik.
  4. I agree in principle. However, in practice, the tax implication on the capital gains have made me twiddle my thumbs
  5. Totally, Gurley is awesome, Gerstner just tries to sound intelligent.
  6. I think that it still have some runway when the rate is finally cut...
  7. Yes. I think we have found a good repeater/AI. No matter what new jobs get created, the repeater/AI will be the main worker in these new jobs. Thus the need for regular/average human will be greatly reduced unfortunately.
  8. Thanks Prasad. Is that too packed for 10 days? Did you mostly travel by plane or train?
  9. I need to go to Bangalore for business, but wants to spend around 10 days after to explore the country. Which area is too hot to visit during that time?
  10. Going to India in late March to April for 10 days for the first time, any recommendation? Thanks.
  11. Did you mean to something like buying Jan 25 45 puts, for example?
  12. Merry Christmas and have a great new year. Really appreciate everyone's contribution to this great forum.
  13. when do you expect that CPRI deal to close?
