Book 35. I'm aiming for a website-style blog. I'll limit the total number of articles to 250-500 and focus on creating meaningful content.

 Hello. This is Watanabe Ten from the Kiyofuji Medical Academy Blog. This time, I'd like to introduce this blog, "Kiyofuji Medical Academy Blog." This blog site has a long-term domain registration for the benefit of long-term readers. This is because I intend to continue blogging for a long time. Currently, the domain is valid from mid-May 2026 until 2030. I also recommend this web hosting service.

The reason I emphasize acquiring a domain name is because I'm a beginner who started a blog site using a free blogging platform. Of course, I also emphasize this to those of you who have already acquired a domain name through a rental server for serious blog management from the start. I believe both approaches have their pros and cons, and I don't know which is right or wrong.

Actually, even free blogs can be monetized if your goal is money. However, the difference lies in whether you pay for a web server and domain name, and whether you want to operate the site as a personal website. As an individual, I have no intention of abandoning my domain, but if you abandon a domain, the website, such as a blog, that uses that domain will be reset to its original address.

My biggest fear is losing data and making the site inaccessible. If I have backed-up data, I can easily restore the blog site and display the original site, but once I lose the domain, I lose the online address of that site. In other words, the readers who were accessing that blog site would not know which address (URL) to access.

I'm certainly not wealthy, but I think it's wise to secure a web hosting service and domain name for the next three years. That's because blogging requires a long-term perspective, and just like the idea that fishing will make you happy for life, it requires a long-term strategy. Blogging itself isn't something that can easily increase page views in a short period of time.

I'm aiming for a website-style blog. By keeping the total number of articles constant, for example, by setting a limit of 250 or 500 articles, I'll reduce the number of new posts and increase the amount of meaningful content within the blog. In other words, I'll expand the content by adding various things to the content of each article I've posted in the past.

Here, let's discuss the difference between a general-interest blog and a specialized blog. General-interest blogs, such as diaries that cover a variety of genres, are more sensitive to trends than specialized blogs. Therefore, the articles posted are only temporarily relevant and quickly lose value over time.

As a result, a large number of miscellaneous articles are produced that no one accesses. I think it's a great waste to produce so many articles that no one reads. Many past articles are excellent and worth rereading, and there should be many past articles that are valuable assets.

I think I need to change my blog site to one that encourages readers to reread older articles. This will encourage repeat readers to access past posts again and again. Instead of posting new articles every day, publishing them in batches at the beginning of the month or week will increase the likelihood that readers and fans will reread older articles in the time leading up to the new posts.

The reason why readers and fans don't read past articles is that they have already read them once, so they have lost value to the readers, and at the same time, they are already full of daily updates.

I don't recommend simply rewriting and rewriting past articles. It's fine if you display both the original and the rewritten article side-by-side. Go ahead and churn out lots of rewritten articles. However, I don't recommend deleting the original article just because you've written a rewritten one.

This is because if the blogger's abilities were at their peak when they wrote that past article, rewriting it after that peak could result in a less polished article. However, everything is impermanent, and if the author has honed their skills since writing that past article and has surpassed their peak, then it's more likely that readers will reread the original article after reading the rewritten one.

The only thing I can say is that rewriting an article doesn't necessarily mean it will be better than the previous one. I think it will be positioned somewhere between a general blog and a specialized blog. In other words, I intend to post personal life lessons and research findings, but the articles will never become outdated after being uploaded.

I want to make one point clear here: I intend to make efforts to increase traffic to past articles. This is because one-time visits don't increase total traffic. Let's both continue to improve our skills.

That's all. Thank you for your continued support. This is Watanabe Ten.

page 10. Human connections are the greatest treasure!? Because we live our daily lives, not on a desert island, there are things we can't see.

 It's been a while. This is Beta from the Inishie R plusA blog. Today's theme is "Human connections are treasures. Networking is worth more than money."

Please understand that the request for this article is to let the time and space flow freely. Now, there are few things that can be called coincidences as much as human connections, aren't there?

Human encounters are a product of chance, and many people have had the almost superstitious experience of suddenly realizing they've built a network of acquaintances. Especially after striking it rich, relatives will flock to you, undoubtedly expanding your network. However, these acquaintances are often so elusive that you don't even think about them normally.

However, I believe there are many kind-hearted people who, when faced with a crisis, receive a helping hand from connections they hadn't even considered. So, parents are eager to get to the conclusion, wondering what the point is.

I believe that connections are a treasure more valuable than money. In other words, all activities in human society are based on relationships between people, and without human relationships, nothing can be meaningful.

The story of Robinson Crusoe often comes up when discussing this topic. I'm curious about what happened to Robinson Crusoe in the end, so I'll look into it.

Clatter, clatter, clatter. Ding. I looked up the story of Robinson Crusoe in a simple soy sauce flavor, but it seems the original is a rather hardcore tonkotsu (pork bone broth) flavor. It doesn't seem to be a completely uninhabited island, and the original story seems to be more like a B-grade horror movie.

Here, we'll proceed with the children's version of Robinson Crusoe. I believe the story is about Robinson Crusoe living on a completely deserted island for a long time and finally being rescued by a ship that happens to be passing by.

Robinson Crusoe likely made his own tools, gathered food, and secured shelter. Even though Robinson Crusoe's story takes place on a deserted island, the possibility of survival meant he could still maintain hope for his own life.

In fact, if I were in Robinson Crusoe's shoes, I think I would try to sulk and sleep as much as possible, use my laptop in bed, and always end up falling asleep.

In other words, I don't possess the vitality of someone like Robinson Crusoe, and even in this everyday society, the need for recognition from others holds significant weight for me.

When we talk about the need for recognition, it's basically about getting "likes" on social media, but many people find meaning in life by being acknowledged and praised by others. Ouch!!

I messed up. Sorry for the sudden announcement. I was asked to write this article in a light, flowing style. I almost started writing it seriously. That was a close call.

Even if I were Robinson Crusoe and had to live alone on a desert island, I'd most likely decide to go with the flow and live life to the fullest. In typical desert island life, you start off with energy, but gradually you become sloppy, and something ominous like a crash can happen.

As I write this story, I think of Mr. So-and-so, who continued to fight alone throughout World War II. If he had just had the opportunity to communicate with those around him, even just a single word, he would have known that the world war had ended long ago and that Japan had become a defeated nation.

Perhaps, even in this everyday society we live in, there are some people who live without communicating with anyone, just like they would on a desert island.

If you're a pensioner, your money will be deposited into your account every month, and when you go shopping, all you need to do is ask at the checkout if you need a bag; there's no need for any communication.

Of course, if an infectious disease like COVID-19 were to spread, you would immediately notice something was wrong without having to wait long. However, if you live without a computer, smartphone, or television, you won't be able to access any information.

Hmm. This is starting to sound a bit occult and dark. Let's get out of this tunnel. Ugh. Here we go. Even if Robinson Crusoe lived in modern times, he would probably be living a similar life to him.

If I could take just one thing to a deserted island, I would request a survival book without hesitation. Not a survival knife, but a survival book.

If you were to bring a god along as a friend, the deserted island might even transform into an incredibly advanced, technologically savvy nation. After all, a god can grant any wish.

Up until the modern-day Robinson Crusoe story, it seemed like it was going to turn into a serious tale, but I'm a little overconfident in my own abilities that I was able to take it in a Copernican-like shift and turn it into a mythical story about befriending the gods.

If I were to give a modern-day Robinson Crusoe the same advice, I would say, "Stay on the channel." But, in reality, this isn't funny, which is the cool side of this blog.

Well, that's 2000 characters. This blog has been getting a bit too long lately, so I'm going to diet. Let's diet! That's all. I'll finish with a light soy sauce flavor. A perfect way to end the day. Let's dance. See you later.

Book 34. Which assets are more desirable to hold? Inventory < Deposits < Goods < Cash. Updated 2026.05.09

 Hello. This is Beta. Today's topic is currency. Speaking of currency, cash is the most liquid asset among all forms of money. Deposits are also highly liquid in terms of how easy they are to convert into cash and how easy they are to use for payments, but they are not as liquid as cash.

The functions of money include a measure of value that serves as a benchmark for money, a store of value such as deposits in banks, and a medium of exchange that mediates the exchange of goods. In this regard, I believe that money's function as a medium of exchange is the most important.

This is because, if one does not place importance on money as a store of value, meaning accumulating deposits, then money as a medium of exchange becomes a very important element. Deposits are currency, they are money. However, if one finds value in goods as commodities rather than accumulating currency as deposits, then money as a medium of exchange becomes important.

One value system is one in which people find more value in owning goods than in owning money. They prefer to own diamonds, gold, silver, cars, and houses rather than keeping savings. During wartime, however, a reversal occurs where goods are more valuable than cash.

And the following equation holds true. We assume that the equation "deposits < goods" is true. Is this assumption correct? The relationship between cash and deposits is similar to the relationship between goods and inventory. Based on that, deposits < cash and inventory < goods indicate high liquidity.

If our previous assumption is correct, the liquidity equation would be: Inventory < Deposits < Goods < Cash. Goods are already sold, deposits are held in banks, and inventory is unsold goods, so the liquidity equation above seems reasonable.

While the relationship of liquidity is generally deposits < commodities < cash, in wartime or other circumstances, commodities can be more valuable than cash, reversing this trend. It is the asset value of commodities as physical goods that allows them to rival cash in value.

"Did they hold onto assets that were highly liquid?"
