I suspect we will see "10 year lows" on tech stock prices too.

Cisco was valued at $600 billion with ~$6 billion revenue in 2000 and now with ~$50 billion revenue is valued at ~$200 billion.

That's what happens when bubbles burst.

I will explore these quesrions.

@RRejeleene Do you believe in yourself? Start with yourself. Start a small project that has a market and relatively low complexity. Communicate your passion to local youth. Whoever turns up regularly and wants to succeed - help them, coach them, mentor then. Nurture talent, grow with them!

2/ The insights we derived from our small teams is what enabled us to be confident that our Tenkasi project will work.

I believe that a careful study of Estonia, Finland, Israel or Switzerland will yield insights about how economies really work and India's districts can prosper.

@gus_brf China industrialized in the last 40 years.

The EU has a lot of nations and each uses their own language.

Switzerland has under 9 million people and its education system has 4 langauges. They make it work.

The books are all in their languages. Japanese and Chinese programmers also write comments in code in their languages.

1/ India's thinking is dominated by English, which means it is shaped by what goes on in the US and UK. I will explore some consequences here.

First let's come to economics. Both the US and UK are highly financialized, "post-industrial" or "post- manufacturing" economies.

A/ It is extremely important that thinking people grasp the basics of our modern global monetary system. What you do not know can hurt you. Here is a very basic outline.

1. Nations export to the US and receive dollars.

2. Nations export to nations that export to US.
