My business partner in 90s who resides in Southern California contacted me through WeChat this morning. He was recently connected with his employees through a Chat Group. Actually, those people were also my co-workers for a year right before I resettled in States 19 years ago. My partner's parents were lifelong friends of my parents. I worked with him briefly in 1987 while I was waiting for my visa to US, eventually I went to Bahamas first and started doing businesses with him from 1990 when I went back to China on and off until 1997. His family has been in Los Angeles for almost 30 years, so his base is always there. However, my focus moved into Europe in early 90s due to other reasons until I decided to move back to States. That's why I became his employee for a year because I wanted to refresh my familiarities of US markets. No matter what and when, we are always very close friends though I haven't seen him for years.
I didn't get onto toll lane today when I noticed the charge of 7 bucks on message board across over the freeway. It was too expensive. Taking a break, I checked on Amazon for my holiday books' purchases. I planed to buy some most current economic books and found several interesting ones.
Economic Rules by Dani Rodrik, published in October, 2015. This book seems fitting my taste very well because it may focus on the applications of mathematical modelings in economics to make it a science as far as I can tell from Table of Contents.
The Economics of Inequality by Thomas Piketty, published in September, 2015. This is another must-read one after his famous Capital in Twenty-First Century. I am particularly interested in his analysis of the relationship between Labor and Capital compared to Marx's Das Kapital.
The Courage to Act: A Memoir of A Crisis and Its Aftermath by Ben Bernanke, published in October, 2015. I had read several books portraying 2008 financial crisis, such as Too Big To Fail, On the Brink and The Quants, but I am eager to learn the aftermath, especially the impact and effect of a series of QE in this book.
I probably will buy these three during Thanksgivings and lock several others during big break next month.
I have a goal to writing two formal books in my life: One is a novel of fictionalizing my lifetime experience to cover from late 80s through probably 2030 when I retire at the latest, which will cover Caribbean, North America, Northern & Western Europe and of course, Great China Area; Another is an academic book of detailing every aspect of my political economic theory of HECONMISM. The summary of it is just as I summarized on my Linkedin Account:
As a dream, I would like to promote my Heconism, which can be outlined as:
Vision: Universal Integration without Boundaries;
Mission: Creation & Development of a comprehensive economic theory to have all global issues fixed;
Goal: Winner of Nobel Economics Prize in 2041;
Theory: Integration of Dynamic in Capitalism and Stability in Socialism to have the whole world growing perpetually at the condition of equality.
