Recently, two acquaintances in the business
1. Recently, two acquaintances in the business faced great difficulties. This is because both investments, which had been going smoothly before martial law, were postponed. An acquaintance who works for an IT company has decided to receive overseas investment indefinitely, and he is the head of a research institute at a pharmaceutical company in a large company. The person who got a job as vice president of development for a startup bio company decided to receive tens of billions of domestic investment, but when the anchor stopped investing, it was canceled like a domino. Two-thirds of the employees, including himself, were to take 6 months off. They couldn't process retirement because they didn't have money to give them severance pay, so they took leave of absence. In my company, there was a project that was almost signed with a large company, and last week, they contacted me that they had to quit because the situation was not good. ㅜ
2. I wonder how many people around me have such a sad story. I think it's a national economic 災 that doesn't have to go through because of a president who is drunk and in power, who doesn't know the world, and people who are in line for that power, and who flatter it.
3. Anyway, during the last presidential election, I said that if Yoon is elected, our country will face great political, economic, and social difficulties. He also said that maybe it will reach a catastrophic level. I used my predictive power, but I'm rather sorry and sorry. In the meantime, I had a big war of words with some of my close friends.
4. I've only worked in the capital market for 37 years, so let me write down for a moment why I, as a marketist to the bone, criticized Yoon so much.
5. Yoon and I don't know each other at all. However, we are in different colleges, but we grew up in Seoul, so we have a few friends we know everywhere. (Since our society is small, I think you may have experienced something similar to mine.)
6. One of my closest friends was Yoon, a high school tutor, another friend from college, another friend from Yeonhui-dong, another friend from the prosecution, etc. So I've been hearing stories about Yoon for a long time from some of my friends. But they weren't from my friends, they were from my trusted friends, whom I had verified for a long time. They were stories in a casual, private setting with no political intentions from friends who knew Yoon well. When I put together a puzzle of those various stories, I was convinced that he should never become a national leader.
7. When I met one of my friends right after he was elected, I still vividly remember what he said to me. "I'm telling you, he won't be able to serve his term. There are three critical flaws, one is TMT, the second is alcohol, the third is wife." These were the messages from a friend who met and observed Yoon for a long time.
8. Recently, I listened to the radio and heard an interview with Jo Gap-je, the leading commentator of the conservative party. He made such remarks that he doubted my ears. "Yoon is not a conservative, but a man who stands on the other side of the conservative party. He is gullible, has no manners toward the people, and is just an incompetent man," he quoted one novelist as saying. "An incompetent ruler is a criminal of history who would not be good enough to cut his head every time."
9. A new year has arrived. The economy hates "uncertainty" the most. I hope that the nation will soon be able to get out of this dark tunnel of uncertainty. I hope my friends will also be able to recover from the delayed and canceled investment as soon as possible.
