I'm thinking to put some cash in stocks, I was at Salt Shack and i overheard some friends saying its ripe enough, but Is this a good time to buy stocks? I’ve been sitting on over $545K equity from a home sale and I’m not sure where to go from here, is it a good time to buy into stocks or do I wait for another opportunity?
Off course, but Just because there are opportunities in the market doesn’t mean you should go in blindly. To understand the potential factors that contribute to your financial growth, I'll advise you to seek the help of a professional.
A lot of folks downplay the role of advlsors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850k.
This is definitely considerable! think you could suggest any professional/advisors i can get on the phone with? i'm in dire need of proper portfolio allocation
Angela Lynn Shilling is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
I just googled her and I'm really impressed with her credentials; I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get. I just scheduled a caII.
He is a living compilation of facts and values. Protect him at all costs.
What's the meaning of it?
you mean he should not get married? 🤣
😂😂@@UrsLawfully
It's rare to find a speaker that can really capture the hearts of his audience. His sincerity, passion, and intelligence really moved and inspired me today
Instead of teaching students; you should teach teachers around the world to have bigger impact in people’s lives
Something tells me you never made it to 2:10
They won't listen 😢
It'll cause ego clash
@@reco8253 elaborate friend?
those students will be teacher of tommorrow
I think most people don't think outside the box because they think that somehow the solution is magically waiting to found in the same dimension where the problem is presented, when in fact actually thinking outside the box is about understanding that certain solutions are not possible unless you change the dimension in which you are operating. Thinking outside the box is about changing how we think when we are thinking. It's about maintaining a balance between truly understanding what the limitations are while seeking what is possible without falling into fantastical abstractions away from reality.
"Thinking outside the box is about changing how we think when we are thinking"
That's an excellent explanation, one of my fave.
I would like to add that "thinking outside the box" (creative thinking) can be an experience. It usually begins with a problem: a question that a person's curiosity drove to ask, or a problem that a person had never seen before (revealing person's mental blindspot). That person will try to solve the problem and usually they fail. If the problem has been solved before, the act of looking for and understanding someone else's solution, and seeing how the "old" way of thinking led them to be stuck - almost emulates the change in thinking that the problem solver underwent.
Thinking outside the box requires a set of skills: the ability to analyze/observe/scrutinize details that may have been overlooked or question hidden assumptions that lead one to "remain inside the dimension where the problem is presented".
It also requires inventiveness, both the resourcefulness to build off of existing well understood ideas and the pioneering spirit to pursue an idea that has never been tried/scrutinized by the community.
@@IsaacC20 So basically Thinking out of the box or Creativity are never intentional or deliberate.
When you are immersed in something these are the outcomes. They come on their own.
My view is -
Do something with utmost sincerity (lovingly); for long time and uninterrupted.
Reflect more, read less.
You will start seeing different plausible solutions (and most likely as @chrisalex001 said, from other dimensions.
For me thinking outside the box, first, you have to know the box is, then you will find another box that bigger and you never or cant go outside that box, that is the rule of the game, and then you will find another small box that you have to protect no matter what, that is the problem you have to solve, so, you can do everything to the small box and get it done without getting out the bigger box. Thats the game.
you will be greatly surprised about the answer :)
Prof Loh is a national treasure.❤
ehm Universal Treasure. Just imagine what this can achieve!
Cannot agree enough. ❤ for people like him. Thinking win win and honestly aiming to improve things for others. Bravo 👏
"You cannot create value if you don't interact with people." 10:55
That's true! When I was in university of science my best mark was at math. Not because I was excellent but because since the beginning of the semester I spent from 10min to 30 min every single day solving problems. When the final exams came (even I was going through a breakup) I got on the exam the best mark of 3 years of university of all subjects ! I learned that Consistency is the key and that good results come only if you spend hours of work and dedication to your craft. Pretty much like anything in Life.🙏
Prof Loh❤is an international treasure ❤❤❤, we should protect him.
This guy is so bold and smart. Wow! Respect.
When he says “if a person knows a lot but is not friendly…” ❤ I feel seen. This is Huge in math/science world. Especially if they are teaching beginners or re-learners.
What a great analogy. To teach kids and then they never have to have those classes again. This needs to be in our educational system because the educational system has really dropped the ball. He is a wonderful speaker that gets his message across. I listened to the whole video twice. I believe what he says is true what a great teacher!
Congratulations on your great effort! I applaud you!
🎉🎉🎉
I love how passionate he is. His model is something that we look at in public health strategy mixed with game theory.
Can you explain a bit about the game theory?
Major takeaways for me, also an educator and mother: 1. Equipping and empowering people to take off as soon as possible on their own (critical thinking). 2. Truly immersing oneself in “other” types of lives (empathy). 3. Focusing on being thoughtful and employing one’s artistry and academia more in the bigger picture (mindfulness). 4. Allowing for truly thinking outside of the box; on and off the page, see first example in video (mindset.) 5. Going into various disciplines, and using the juncture to improve on all sides; drama example for math teacher (authenticity). This video actually is a sort of rundown on a lot of terms we’ve been scrambling over the last 10 years, but put into context they are just more approachable. Thank you, I think this can really help a lot of people fill the slogans they encounter on a daily basis with real life! And meaning!
True that, what you said in the last part of your comment i completely agree__ and a good summary though (of the vid)❤
thanks
@ heikekranz, You are equally amazing and intelligent as the professor in the video for putting the whole video’s context into few summarised words and yet, self explanatory, unequivocally, intelligently put in categories. You are amazing as well. You must be a damn brilliant, amazing teacher. Thank you!
I love people who summarise the video for others. You have no idea how much it helps and please others
@@naqeebkakar6716 just can’t help myself…But, irony aside, it (my info and comments) are only an offer, so, hope you don’t think I’m gloating😊
13:36 this made me so happy
That smile just changed my mood
And his thoughts
Damn man!
He is gem of this human society
I think that tooooo ❤
I hope those top leaders may watch this, so as educators. I am almost crying hearing his definition of success.
You are so beautiful
I never imagined that people who were talented could be working on becoming extraordinarie... amazing...
What an excellent approach to education! Where I live the education system is based on memorizing things, close the book and ask them to explain what they have just learned, ask them to connect with another subject or create some new idea out of that information and they literally can't. It's like people developed a fear to think. Everyone just focused on passing the exams. We need more people like him to make an awareness everywhere in the world.
Amazing interview! Amazing gentleman! I salute him!!!!
Brilliant! we need lot more of such humans on earth.
Love this guy...
We need more humans as this gentleman.
Loh is not training students in math but inspiring students to find math from their hearts.
And that can start by us mothers fathers or the ones that are raising a child , and not just by words n actions, but a lotta HEART
Haven’t heard of this school since the late great randy pausch was giving the last lecture, nice to see they still have genuine people roaming
So much passion! It’s giving me goosebumps. Love this guy!
We need Prof Loh as part of a global ecosystem of wise women and men that helps us find solutions to key planetary problems. War, poverty, climate change....Their strategic, common good and creative thinking is what this world needs!
Exactly.this guy should take Jeff bezoa place in economic forum in davos
Wonderful piece Prof Loh ! Really great!!!
The work is he is doing is exceptional. ❤❤
Protect this man at all costs!
Teaching people to be thoughtful - perfect 🙏🏼👌
“Why reinvent the wheel” is one of the most indolent question I’ve heard
WE REALLY DESERVE THIS KIND OF TEACHERS
Soo good!!! Love this content and this gentleman voice! at the end when he said that everyone should be little bit of entrepreneur no body talks about this but this man wants to make people aware of power of thinking and exploring and getting new things to experience and learn
This is listening, reading and great intentions combined.
Thanks for sharing bigger thoughts with the world.
He is one of the greatest communicator I have ever seen
This guy melts my heart 🥺🥺🥺
Thanks EO! it's fun watching these interviews! keep em coming!
He explained the real definition of success!!!
thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. we are lucky to have you ❤️
he is 41 but looks 18
He's asian he age less😂
I hadn't even taught about his age , I had assumed his was between 20-30
I am from middle East,I am 18 but look look like a 41 year old man
@@MirRind-ur2go good sense of humor.
This video made my day! Very inspirational!
Thank you for the video I have a friend that is deep in the box, the wrong box too. Bless his heart
the passion of this man is incomparable ❤❤❤ we need more like you Loh. In this world young people are way esier to mold. than the one that has been constrict by its own democracy
you should become like him...
Brilliant mind. So glad you were able to get him share some of his amazing thoughts on education. I am grateful.
Ha... your thoughts are exactly mine. Thanks for your great explanation of learning is all about.
Learn to invent.
Not learn to know.
This interview is an ispiration for the next generation of tech savvies.
Professor Loh is a Genius!
What a way to wake up with this and a cup of coffee on New Year's day. You are a national treasure!!!
This man is brilliant.
wonderful speaker, love the way he talk and motivational words
Wow such a good person.. God bless you
This might be the best video I've watched on TH-cam.
Simply GREAT
Fascinating video! The point about not being able to create value without interacting with people really struck a chord with me. It aligns perfectly with the startup ethos of validating your hypotheses through real-world interaction before fully committing to a build
9 seconds in and I've already paused to think about that knowledge bomb he just dropped 🤯
You should try next, you will love it. 😊
A beautiful mind, I feel inspired! 😁
wow i stumble on this video somehow and I'm not regretting it......i actually learn something new and it actually make me think about lot's of things which is happening in my life
I love the intrepreneur part so thoughtful with deep meaning.....
In this era where we have short attention span want everything quick.....there's need of people like you professor who convince ourselves to question our thoughts☺
Same. Even my background is from maths but still I am feeling excited ❤
In the match problem I thought of splitting the matches into two.
Then use 9 of the mini matches to make adjacent triangles or use 12 to make 4 separate triangles!
Absolutely brilliant and fascinating!
Love the optimism he has
Thank you for this! Am learning to code and I was not giving myself time to think. But I will start thinking
Inspirational! Truly inspirational!
Learning how to think and solve problems. Thats not what we learned at school. And most TH-cam video show how to do something much too specific. They should show whats the problem, what are the consequences and most difficult parts. Analyse the problem and then show multiple solution options and their benefits and limitations. Then we will learn how to attack any type if problem. Not only the one shown.
Very inspiring and educative thanks for sharing
This is what I’m dealing with, thinking outside the box! I’m over stress myself and sometimes I think why???
Wowww wowww.i respect u sir .for ur dedication.🙌🙇.
What u have said is right sir .
And now iam feeling unlucky that iam not able to have these knowledge, feeling bad but also happy for the new generation that are able to get the amazing education to not only learn but to think creatively.i think it has to spread all our the world.sir please even look after asian countries to open and spread ur wings sir
For better generation.i respect for ur dedication and commitment to create ,to bring change in these today's world.thank you sir ❤
Well said,sir😊😊. I couldn't agree more 🎉🎉
Dammnn one of the best talks I've seen
Inspiring , you're a legend man 💪 respect
Finally a beautiful content!
The role of the person is to solve the problem ............. took the responsibility to make watch whole video
i loved english language because find like this knowledge ❤
Great video, great content
لنتعلم التفكير العميق.....شكرا .....كم هو جميل ان تجد بين البشر مثل هذا النوع المفكر...
Po Shen Loh. Take a bow!
Thank you! 👍🙏
I ranked 21st in a national maths contest I took part in during my school years - I must say that this is more of a cognitive ability than something ine can teach!
Rare & A Real Gem
Apart from his math genius, i would also like to follow his diet plan. He has remained the same for last 10 years.
Thank you so much 😊
great video!
Thank you for sharing❤️ I am a mathematics teacher too❤
Thank you very much 😊
Thank you so much the video gave me hope and power to create my own business
1:13 we can do it placing three triangle first to make a simole triangle and then placing other three matches like a triangle above it like a big triangle with subgroup of four triangle in it
As a software engineer , I agree with him on how to create a value
Just awesome thanks man
Wow! This guy is amazing! His enthusiasm spreads like a virus!
Co. vid? 💉 Or wu han flew?
You are AWESOME!
Love this man thanks
0:59 2 equilateral triangles with a shared side, and a line that is parallel to 1 pair of parallel lines in the rhombus
Love this vid. From time to time, I’m so out of the box that I turn off people…THEN they slowly adopt (some) of my ideas.
Feeling alienation a bit, then feeling under appreciated
Legend!
Wow this is amazing conversation💫❤🔥
Being creative is about practicing
Love it
Telo is an out-of-the-box leader.
Im always saying to myself how can i bring value to myself and improve my income.
