经济

To study economics has never been easy. There are so many jargons, terms, equitions, models, curves and graphs. However, we are lucky to live in a digital age, in which all kinds of learning resource is accessible. I’ve found it could be a better way to study economics through reading the opinion columns of WSJ–the Wall Street Journal. Since Murdock acquired WSJ, the journal has erected a content paywall. Although a few articles are still free of charge, most of them need to pay to access. I subscribed the Kindle version of WSJ with a monthly fee of USD19.00. As a result, I can read the full contents of WSJ on web, kindle and my iPhone. As a Chinese columnist, I pay more attention to my western countparts. To read their articles is the best way to learn the craft of writing. Writing is no more than carpentery. What I need are skill and tools. Talent is not for learning, but still is. That’s where my confidence has come from. ...

The best column article ever written. Nobody Understands Debt by Paul Krugman. Why we need columnists? Once I asked a friend who is a programmer and geek: “Do you read columns in Chinese?” “Seldom do I read these stuff. Though you are a columnist, I have to say, most columnist are cheaters and not worth of a dime. " His answer really discouraged me. But I think he is right. Many columns published on newspapers and magazines, only few are worth of reading. But in the world of English language, this is not true. Columnists enjoy a large scale readership. Their opinions are not only powerful enough to change the public opinion but also change the policies of government. Mr. Paul Krugman-the Nobel Prize for economics winner, is a good example. His column in the New York Times is so popular that some readers claim that the only reason to subscribe the Times is to read his OP-ED. ...

协议控制是什么？ VIE是什么？_资料存档_百度空间 这么清楚明白的财经普及文章太少了，我们都被各种专家说法，术语jargon给绕晕了。

［现场记录，舛误较多，仅供参考］ 演讲人：Thomas Friedman 时间：2011年9月10日 由于不能来现场，托马斯－弗里德曼用视频做实时演讲。 托马斯－弗里德曼在演讲，现在是明尼苏达的后半夜，他在讲他的新书 That used to be us。自从达沃斯论坛跟jack ma认识之后，他准备开发中国市场。 今天下午我要谈的是，怎样应对IT革命和全球化，这事实上也是一种对教育的挑战。当我写这本书的时候，有一件趣事：我的第一本书《世界是平的》是2004年写就。现在我打开这本书，看到下索引，在F字头下，Facebook赫然罗列其中，书里还提到了推特，看来我的预言都对了。 ...

《看天下》专栏 【导语】天生不受监管和控制的虚拟货币Bitcoin，被称为“人类有史以来最危险的项目”，它的蔓延与流行，催生出一个新的行当－－“Bitcoin矿工”。 夜幕下的张江高科像电影《黑客帝国》的场景，灯火迷离，人头晃动，一只黑猫在室外桌下蹿来蹿去，骤然急停，目光与我相撞，顿觉电光火石，令我不敢直视。习习晚风中，我和Virushuo已经对坐谈了一个多小时。 ...

（《南方都市报》专稿，转载请注明出处） 我没有想到自己一篇关于中美物价比较的博文会引起那么大的反响。 我原以为，中国部分消费品物价“赶英超美”根本算不上什么秘密，而是大部分国人都知道的常识。这一常识不仅见诸于走出国门者的街谈巷议之中，也见诸于海外留学生的回乡偶记里，同时，早已是天涯、豆瓣等社区热议的话题。 要说我做得有什么特别之处，我不过是多走了一小步，拿着远在波士顿好友纳纳的超市购物小票，在杭州相似规模的超市里走了一圈，给小票上每一样商品拍照，记录下它们的价格，再把两地价格换算成同样的计量单位。你可以说我做得不专业、不全面、不科学，但你无法否认我所看到的基本真相。统计数字或可以撒谎，真金白银的价格标签不打诳语。 ...
