Tomorrows Best Economy Will Be…
A nyone would go hunting for buried treasure if they were confident enough it was there. If someone told you “1,000 meters below the ground there is $100 million in gold,” most people would devise a plan to get it. Perhaps they would build a team or search for investors. If a person has enough certainty that a fortune is to be had, even the average person could find a way to move mountains.

Are We Doing Enough Demarketing in the Face of the COVID-19 Threat?
Introduction Quick, name a doctor? Odds are that these days, the first name most folks would say would be Dr. Fauci! And that’s very reasonable, as in the wake of the global COVID-19/coronavirus pandemic, Dr. Anthony Fauci has become perhaps the face of this historical event - being both the Director of The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and an influential member (and perhaps the most influential member) of the President’s Coronavirus Task Force and a constant on all our screens. For many Americans, Dr. Fauci has become the most trusted expert in this uncertain and worrisome time, even as every TV doctor - from Dr. Oz to Dr. Sanjay Gupta seems to be on all day every day!. And when epidemiology is suddenly on all our minds and in the news well, it is the news - 24/7, America seems to have found - and seems on the surface at least to be listening to - this most prominent of epidemiologists.

Searching for Health Info, Products and Hope on the Internet in the Time of COVID-19
Introduction What did we search for online in regards to health info, medicine, treatment options and yes, products that may - or may not - really help us in the midst of the COVID-19/coronavirus pandemic?

What We Want Online During the Pandemic, And What That Says About Us
Introduction Today, we have pretty much become accustomed to the idea that Internet giants like Google, Amazon, Facebook, Twitter, Netflix and more know everything about us - perhaps even more than what we would like to admit to ourselves. These indispensable Internet giants make gazillions of dollars based on being able to not just manage this data for their own use, but to also be able to tell advertisers what sites we visit, what we search for online, what we buy online, and what video content we watch. And for the most part, we have come to accept the Faustian bargain that this represents to us as we trade off our anonymity for the convenience that these tools give us in our lives.

COVID-19 ... in this Gig Economy?
Self isolating is alarmingly easy when you are an introverted home-based worker. One thing is for sure, when this blows over I need to get my arse outside and join a book club or something, so little of my routine has changed, its scary. However, this unfortunately does not apply to work flow.

Covid Crisis, Cash Flow, and Culinary Business Mitigation Plan
In Q1 2020, I currently am 25 years old and this is my first time experiencing world crisis after I reach adulthood. The first time I knew about coronavirus in December 2019, I thought it is only going to affect healthcare and political systems; yet, after the Wufan’s lockdown, I knew it is soon going to be economical. And it is our first world crisis after social media interconnectedness-digital era that human mankind is facing new lethal virus with its unique challenges including hoax, mass paranoid, and over sharing for their preventive actions to protect themselves from the virus. The virus is not as fatal as plague in 14th century, influenza, SARS or H1N1 but the crowds’ character has changed. They started to stockpile masks, hand sanitizers, and food like it’s WW3; and the panic spreads faster than the virus itself.
