Jamest, what is the value added in the thing of which you hold shares? Why should I want that thing?

I'd buy shares in your bike business. You're smart and a hard worker. So, the value is in the fundamentals.

However, value also depends upon the currency in which something is valued. Do you know what is happening to the $ as we speak?

Crumbling.

You can be the smartest hard-working guy in the world, but if your currency is worth shit then your efforts will be for nothing if your currency tanks.

Though I lack your skills, I've worked hard all of my life. The difference between us, right now, is that I've realised the significance of the currency in which one gets paid.
