The end of the career

It has been eleven years since I embarked on my journey to a career largely in the financial sector.

However in the fall out that has hit Trinidad.

I cannot in good conscience continue to engage in this profession.

There is an undercurrent of anger, that is justified.

I have most of my working life ahead of me.

Now is the time to return to the stronghold of my forefathers.
The chinese in this country have traditionally been the first line of credit as shopkeepers. And I am surprised that the current elders are willing to bring back the old ways of sou sou and lay away plans, and be the organisers.

But my bet is on them. They didn't climb out of their villages, just like that.
It took what the current bankers with their bonus incentives, don't have.

Intuitive people sense, hard work and strategic vision for building generational wealth.

Because that's how they think, they don't care about the next fiscal, they think about their children.

That's all I had to do to get the opportunity I am now taking.

I am a good investment.

Six degrees of separation

There is something in the saying that the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

And perhaps the axiom I should now follow is

First do no harm.

Another way to state it is that "given an existing problem, it may be better to do nothing than to do something that risks causing more harm than good." It reminds the physician and other health care providers that they must consider the possible harm that any intervention might do. It is invoked when debating the use of an intervention that carries an obvious risk of harm but a less certain chance of benefit. Since at least 1860, the phrase has been for physicians a hallowed expression of hope, intention, humility, and recognition that human acts with good intentions may have unwanted consequences.

Winding down

I can't wait to get out of here. I have already mentally left.

Time for me to go do something productive, rather than go in circles.

I am not a rat.

But I do wonder when the psychology of denial will finally sink in here.

As it is, the real source of the financing is getting power, and they are ruthless.

At what price to your citizens are you willing to pay for the palace.

A war not declared, can never end.

But as luisa valenzuela said

All blood must come to its place of quietude
