I Believe in Appropriate Compensation
To believe in appropriate compensation is to affirm the principle that effort, value, and responsibility deserve fair recognition.

Why People Like to Exist as Much as Possible
People are not content with merely being alive. They want to exist — to be felt, seen, remembered.
