For those who do not know me, like Pastor Caleb said, my name is Sean. I am one of the pastors here at Radiant Church. I actually want to, I have a picture of my family. I want to introduce them as well if they want to go ahead and put that up. But my, it's my wife Natasha in the center there. Incredible, beautiful wife. She's one of the worship leaders here at Radiant. Yeah, you can go ahead and give it up for her. She's amazing, beautiful. Yes, she does sing me to sleep every single night. And it's beautiful. I'm so thankful. Then I have our seven year old boy, Jackson.   She's just like me. So we thank God that she loves Jesus because she'd probably turn into a sociopath. So we are so thankful for her. So we moved here around five, six years ago from Kansas City. And we love it here in Michigan. We've really made our home here. We love the people that we've met. We've loved the nature, the water, the summers and even these like 16 month long winners that we seem to go through. And, you know, when we moved here, it was a January and I don't think the people in Kansas City understands the seriousness of like what we go through here. And apparently there's fluid that you need to put in our 27 foot moving truck to make sure it doesn't freeze. Which it did on the side of the road as we got here and the whole engine froze over and it was a multi hour long defrosting process with the service mechanic. And by the time we got to our new home, it was covered in about 18 inches of snow. And we thought, well, it's well over midnight now. We got in super late. Let's just go ahead and get our beds out and we'll shovel an unpack in the morning. So when we pulled our mattress out, it was a gel memory phone mattress that was basically frozen like a sheet of plywood. So we had to throw it into our bedroom, shut the door, crank the heat and hopefully within an hour or two, it defrost so that we could go to sleep that night. So the next day I started asking people around here. I said, you know, is this normal for winners here? This seems pretty intense.  It's normally really beautiful. It's, this is pretty abnormal. I said, oh, okay, that's good to know. Over the next five years, I experienced the exact same winters. And I realized one thing about Michigan is that you're all lying to yourself. So, so at radiant, I do a lot of operational leadership, but at the core of my heart, I love teaching the word. Now, when I was 16 years old, that's when I started as a worship leader. And I thought I was going to be a worship leader honestly until the day I died. I was gonna be 90 years old, still strumming an acoustic guitar. And the Lord challenged me in my 20s to teach. And I thought, there's no way that I could do this. The Bible, it's too difficult. It's too complex. It's not for someone like me and my brain to be able to do. But after saying yes to the Lord, I discovered the opposite. The Bible, it's rich, but it's simple. It's written for all of us in this room to understand. It's not boring. We'll never exhaust the depths and the riches of it, but it's not too difficult. It's not for someone else to discover for you. You can understand the word and when you do, there is so much more for you. So I just wanna read a short passage just before we even get started at a Deuteronomy 30. It says, for this commandment that I command you today is not too hard for you. Neither is it too far off. It is not in heaven that you should say, who will ascend to heaven for us and bring it to us that we may hear it and do it? Neither is it beyond the sea that you should say, who will go over to the sea for us and bring it to us that we may hear it and do it? But the word is very near you. It is in your mouth and it is in your heart so that you can do it. Let's pray. Father, we thank you for your word that gives life. We thank you for your son Jesus who gave us access to your presence and we thank you for the Holy Spirit who reveals who you are. Open up our hearts to receive your word, amen. All right, take out your Bibles. Let's open them up to John 8. So we are in our Gospel of John series and this teaching specifically is focused around one of the I am statements of Jesus. Or in John 8.58, Jesus says, before Abraham was I am. So before we get to that section, I wanna read the surrounding text together because I believe it's so vital to understand what is being addressed when Jesus says this and what is being questioned by this statement. So there's three passages we're gonna read through. You can start at John 8, verse 12 and we're gonna read through these and there's three questions that are being asked in each of these passages. So starting in verse 12, Jesus's identity of who he is is being questioned. So in verse 12, it says, Jesus spoke to them and them are these religious leaders saying, I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness but will have the light of life. So these religious leaders, the Pharisees, they said to him, you are bearing witness about yourself, your testimony is not true. So essentially what they're saying is you're the one that's giving yourself that title. No one around you is backing that statement up. So by our law, it can't be true. Our law states you have to have two witnesses to establish truth. That's essentially what they're saying with this statement. So Jesus answers them, verse 14. Well, even if I do bear witness about myself, my testimony is true for I know where I came from and where I am going. But you do not know where I come from or where I am going. You judge according to the flesh and I judge no one. Yet even if I do judge, my judgment is true for it is not I alone who judge but I and the Father who sent me. In your law, it is written that the testimony of two people is true. I am the one who bears witness about myself, number one. And the Father, number two, who sent me bears witness about me. So we see here that Jesus is, he's distancing himself from their legal requirements but still in humility and in truth. He's still demonstrating submission and his own right standing but purely based not on their legal requirements but based on his identity. So he continues, so they said to them, therefore, where is your father? Or we can translate that as who is your father? Jesus answered, you know neither me nor my father. If you knew me, you would know my father also. And these words, he spoke in the treasury as he taught in the temple but no one arrested him because his hour had not yet come. So if you like to nerd out or maybe you study the Bible for fun, this is a fun little thing to study out is when it says these words he spoke in the treasury, I encourage you to, this is a significant phrase actually. Nothing in the Bible is just out of happenstance. And so actually, if you have some time, if you run out of shows to watch and you're kind of bored at night, just to kind of study out why is that significant? Hints about a festival. So there you go, give you a free little hint.  Where I'm going, you cannot come.  Since he says, where I'm going, you cannot come.  They know that, well, we're going to heaven so you must be talking about you're going to hell. This is how self-righteous they are. Verse 23, he said to them, you are from below, I am from above, you are of this world, I am not of this world.  So they said to him, who are you? Jesus said, just what I have been telling you from the beginning. So so far, we're in John eight, none of this is new information. All through the previous chapters, Jesus spoke so much about who he was. He told different people, different crowds, religious leaders that he was the Messiah. He told them that his father was God, that his father sent him and that he was doing the father's will. So he continues, I have much to say about you and much to judge, but he who sent me is true and I declare to the world what I have heard from him. They did not understand that he had been speaking to them about the father. So Jesus said, when you've lifted up the Son of man, you will know that I am he and I do nothing of my own authority, but I speak just as the father has taught me and he who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone for I always do the things that are pleasing to them. And as he was saying these things, many believed in him. So now we're starting to transition to this new passage, this new audience. When it says many believed in him, it's these crowds that are kind of watching this initial debate between Jesus and the religious leaders. So now Jesus turns his attention, it says to the Jews in verse 31. And these are these crowds that we're saying like, yeah, this guy, like, I love what he's saying. Like, I wanna follow this guy. This is awesome. Hey, we believe you, we're on your team. So these are the people, picture these people as we're starting into this next passage because now Jesus turns his attention to them and they start to defend their own identity.  You will know the truth and the truth will set you free.  They're like, yeah, this is awesome. This is so great.  And they're kind of like, are you talking to us? Like, no, do you know who we are? Like, we're not like those guys, we're different. And so he turns to them and says this and they answer them, we're the offspring of Abraham and we've never been enslaved to anyone. How is it that you can say that we will become free? And so if you think about this, if you've read any verse in the Old Testament, you'll know that there's so much irony in this statement. The Jewish people have almost always been enslaved to someone. Physically, they were slaves in Egypt, they were slaves in Canaan, and they were slaves in Babylon, and God brought physical freedom to them, to the people who were enslaved due to their own sin. Spiritually, they were enslaved to idolatry and immorality. So even though Jesus is talking about spiritual freedom here, these Jews are believing that just their physical lineage alone by saying we are offspring of Abraham, that physical lineage alone is their righteousness or their very own right standing before God.   So he doesn't say that anyone who's committed to sin is a slave to sin. He's talking about practicing sin. That practice word could be defined as repeated, continuous, and intentional sin. So it's a very like I am continually the habit of doing this, but the sin that he's specifically talking about here is unbelief. So Jesus is making it clear the type of slavery and the type of freedom that he's referring to. So he continues, the slave does not remain in the house forever, the son remains forever. You have to think in this time slaves, they were sold and transferred at will. They didn't have any control over their identity or where they belonged, but a son could never be anything other than a son. So if the son sets you free, you will be free indeed. Now Jesus says this here, I know that you are offspring of Abraham, yet you seek to kill me because my words find no place in you. 38, I speak of what I have seen with my father and you do what you have heard from your father. So we start to shift language from offspring and lineage to now father and child relationship. So he agrees that yes, I know you come from this physical lineage of Abraham, but it begins to strike at the root of assurance by challenging that Abraham is not their real father. So they answered him, maybe you didn't understand us. We said that Abraham is our father. So they must think like this guy, we said he was smart and awesome, but I don't think he's all there right now. So Jesus said to them, if you were Abraham's children, now this is different when he said, I know you're the offspring. Here he says, well, if you were his children, you would be doing the works Abraham did. So Jesus begins to draw the line between how they're defining identity. He agrees that they're the physical offspring, that they carry his blood and his genes, but that doesn't mean that they are his children. So they're not following the ways of Abraham, who Abraham showed faith and trust and belief. So children, they follow and they imitate where orphans, they reject and they isolate.  This is not what your father Abraham did. You're doing the works your father did. So he's slowly peeling back that onion. He's like, if you were Abraham's children, you would do what he does, but you don't. You're rejecting truth.  You're embracing this murderous spirit. Abraham didn't do that, your father does that. So now they're starting to kind of think, they're starting to rise up in anger and they're starting to get defensive.  They're kind of jabbing at Jesus like, you were born of it, but we weren't. You have to think, Jesus has probably told them that I come from my father in heaven, but they know that he has a father on earth, Joseph. So you're like, well, you're the one that's got two dads, we don't. We have one father, even God. So they begin to appeal to someone higher than Abraham. They're starting to pull out every card they have to try to win this righteousness argument with Jesus. Jesus says to them, well, okay, if God was your father, you would love me because I came from him and I am here. I didn't come of my own accord. He's the one that sent me. So he's using the same argument. He's not changing things up. And he continues, why do you not understand what I say? It's because you cannot bear to hear my word. You are of your father, the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. So Jesus, it's like, I think of it as like, he's peeling back that onion and then he takes his fist and just smashes the onion. He's like, see, this is who you are. This is your identity. He was a murderer from the beginning. He does not stand in the truth because there's no truth in him.  So this is heavy stuff, but he's not saying that they're the physical offspring of the devil.  That's who you follow. Roman six backs this up. It says that we are slaves to what we obey. Whatever we practice and obey and say yes to, that's what we become a slave to. We're either slaves of sin or slaves of righteousness. They are following and imitating the way of lawlessness which leads to death. He continues in verse 45. Because I tell the truth, you do not believe me. Which one of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me? Whoever is of God hears the word of God. The reason why you do not hear them is that you are not of God. It's a little bunny trail here and trying to stick to my notes because man, I love stories in bunny trails. So I typically teach for two hours when I teach classes and I know I have 35 minutes. So I am like really like hyper focused in. So when it says whoever is of God hears the words of God and if you do not hear them, you are not of God. This statement should give you confidence.  Only your identity hinders that. And so if you are of God, you will hear the word of God. And if you don't hear it, then maybe you are not of God and that's what you challenge yourself in. That word here though, it's not just I'm hearing a voice that here means to listen and to obey. So it says that if you are of God, you will hear the word of God. It means that if you are of God, you will listen to it and you will obey it. So the grace that comes to walk it out actually comes with that identity. All right, bunny trail closed. So now we're entering into our final section here. We're landing the plane. Jesus has challenged them after his own identity has been questioned of who he is and who his father is. Now they start to defend who they think they are and who their father is. But Jesus then reveals their identity as you are following the ways of the devil and that's who your father is. So now these believing Jews who were kind of hype men of them, oh yeah, we love you, this is great. They rise in defense and now it's just kind of all shifted around and they answer him, are we not right in saying that you're a Samaritan and that you have a demon? So now look how these like turntables have turned now and these believing Jews are now saying that you're a Samaritan which is essentially this non-Jew half-breed and your demon possessed. So they went from really loving him to now just hating him. Jesus answers, I don't have a demon but I honor my father and you're dishonoring me. Yet I don't seek my own glory. There's one who seeks it and he is the judge. Truly I say to you, if anyone keeps my word he will never see death. So the Jews say to him, now we know you have a demon because we know that Abraham died and we know the prophets died but you're saying that if we keep your word that no one will die. Are you greater than our father Abraham? Are you greater than the prophets that came before us? Who do you make yourself out to be? Or we can say, who do you think you are? Jesus answers, he doesn't defend himself. He says, if I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It's my father who glorifies me of whom you were said earlier, he's our God but you have not known him. You don't know the father, I know him.  But I do know him and I keep his word. Your father Abraham, he rejoiced in his faith and his obedience and his joy. He rejoiced that he would see the day of my coming. He saw and he was glad. So then the Jews, they just kind of throw everything at him.  How have you seen Abraham? Basically, this is physically impossible and they're completely blinded to the truth that's being said to them.  So here it is, this is the I am statement like the I am statement. When he says before Abraham was, he's talking about his pre-existence. I existed before Abraham. When he says before Abraham was I am, Jesus is referencing Exodus three. Moses asks in Exodus three, what is your name? Talking to God. God replies, I am who I am. So this is not just a small statement. He's claiming his divinity as God. So what was their reply? Verse 59, they picked up stones to throw at him, but Jesus hid himself and went out of the temple. So they understood the power and truth of this claim and they rejected it as blasphemy, embracing deception and in a murderous rage. Okay, we're getting to our intro now. That was a lot of scripture, but I believe it's important to understand before we just say before Abraham was I am, what is Jesus talking about? There's a whole lot of stuff in that like thousands of verses we just read. Testimony, judgment, salvation, authority, freedom, sin, obedience, glory, but there's one important underlying current in my opinion, which is sonship and identity. There's a key question that they asked Jesus in verse 19. They say, who is your father? So much is tied up in that question and the answer to that question. In ancient times, who your father was meant way more than it does now. It was the core of who you are. It was the core of your identity and it was most likely what you were going to do for the rest of your life because you followed the ways of your father. He said in verse 14, I know where I came from and I know where I am going. Earlier in John 17, he says, my father is working and I am working. So Jesus wasn't some just singular anomaly that just arrives on scene to disrupt the status quo. He was actually following the ways of his father. So why is this important for us right now? Well, we live today in a society of fatherlessness. There's over 18 million or about 25% of children that are growing up in the homes of just America that do not have a father. Now we're not even talking about fathers in the home that are abusive or fathers in the home that are distant. Today, culture has distilled the concept of fatherhood to primarily genetics in a last name. For most of us, the question of who is your father can bring up pain, anger, apathy or just a shutting down of the heart and this divinely designed relationship that was created by God the father has been broken and children's rebel and fathers abandoned. And we have to ask ourselves, does this cultural and personal view of a father distort the way that we view God as a father or have we let society and our own unforgiveness place a filter over our eyes and over our hearts? Now today I wanna talk about this filter. When you come before the father, whether it be in prayer or worship or maybe even this morning as you're sitting here in church, how does he look at you? How do you perceive the way he sees you and thinks about you? What do you believe about him and what he says about us? The enemy, the deceiver, he wants you to see a father who is harsh, who's demanding, who's never satisfied with your efforts and he's frustrated with the rate of your spiritual growth. Now this filter, it affects how we see him, how we approach him and how we see ourselves.  We're gonna hide in shame and eventually with that constant shame, we're gonna grow tired of trying to please him. When we think our father has abandoned us, then we're gonna rebel from that sonship, just like orphans when I said that earlier, they rebel and they reject. We live like spiritual orphans. It's hard to realize that we're even viewing from this filter, let alone knowing how to correct this filter. It colors every idea and thought that you have in your mind and in your heart. Think about it this way as like you are wearing like those big yellow safety glasses that you would do if you're doing some work and you have them on and you can function in everyday life, you can do things, you can drive cars, walk your dog, but everything has this yellow hue to it. It literally colors and filters everything you take in. Now we all have a filter, we all believe this orphan mentality to some degree. Now it may only be 1% but that 1% is a poison and it'll seep in and it'll corrupt our mindset of how you answer the question, who is your father? Now you might think, well, I mean, I'm doing pretty good. 1% is not that bad, right? Well, let's think about it this way. Now I like to think that I'm actually a pretty decent cook. So let's say I come to you and I have this fresh baked tray of delicious brownies and I use just the greatest chocolates from around the world and it's a gooey center and it's crisp edges and I don't put nuts in there cause I'm not a maniac and I give you these brownies with a spoon and I might have offended a few of you just now and I say, hey, you right here, these brownies are all yours. You can have all of it, there's some ice cream in the fridge if you want as well, just a small FYI though. This morning I was mixing the batter, my window was open, a bird flew in and it pooped in the batter. Now I think I got almost all of it out but there still might be just a little tiny bit of bird poop in that batter but the rest of the brownies delicious. Now ask yourself, would you eat those brownies?   This is how aggressively and intentionally we need to picture the filter that we have of how we view the father. So how do we correct this filter? Well, step one was the hard one. That's what we just talked about. It's recognizing and revealing that we have a filter. Step two though, I gotta tell you is really easy. We just say what the Bible says over ourself. We're gonna read scripture, we're gonna repeat that scripture over us and then we're gonna remember it. So I wanna take some time just to look at some scripture. We're gonna specifically look at some scripture about the father and how the father views us. So we're gonna start song Solomon verse two, our chapter two. It says, let me see your works and let me hear of your great accomplishments. Though your voice to me is very tiring and you're very disappointing. Actually, no, it doesn't say that, does it?  Song Solomon two though, I think it says his banner over me is my performance. Actually doesn't say that, it actually says your banner over me is love. Zephaniah three says he will tolerate me. Actually says he will rejoice over me with singing. Jeremiah 31, I have loved you with a conditional love. Depends on how you act today. Actually it says I have loved you with an everlasting love. Song 139, how annoyed are you with me? How little do you think about me? It actually says how precious are your thoughts? How vast is the sum of them? So we see over and over that the truth in scripture is that God loves you. He's not annoyed by you. He's not bored with you and he is not angry with you. So we're gonna look at some more scripture here. I love reading scripture. We've already seen that. We've read half the Bible so far this morning. So it's great. Exodus 33, Moses says to the Lord, please show me your glory. So how do we define glory? We might look at it as power, his might. God show me something that's gonna blow me away. So what does God say to Moses? He says, I will make all my goodness pass before you. I will proclaim my name. I will be gracious and I will show mercy. So Exodus 34 is when God finally passes before him and does he proclaim how awesome, how powerful, how mighty is he? No, what he says is I am the Lord, a God merciful, a God gracious, I'm slow to anger and I'm a bounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. This is who he is. Psalm 51, it doesn't say that I need your sacrifice. I need your works and accomplishments. I need you to prove yourself to me. What it says here in Psalm 51 is I don't delight in a sacrifice. I am not pleased with burnt offerings. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit. This broken and contrite heart, I will not despise. My favorite scripture here, Matthew 7. I love this chapter here. Ask and it will be given to you. Seek and you will find. Knock and it will be open to you. For the everyone who asks receives and the one who seeks finds and the one who knocks it will be opened. For which one of you, if his son asks for a bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a serpent? If you then who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask? We can go on and on reading scripture about the truth of who God is and the father and our identity as him as our sons and daughters. It is crucial for us to not only know this in our mind but to believe it in our heart. The reason is because as we've read earlier with the religious leaders we could actually have a believing mind but an atheistic heart. We could have a mind that thinks it's adopted but the heart of an orphan. So I wanna sit on this mindset just for a second of the father-child relationship.  He's funny, he's smart. He has every fact memorized about every animal in the world and can remember every detail and he's this amazing, funny kid but he's still a seven-year-old child and I can't expect him to be perfect, flawless or have no weakness. He can't operate at that level yet. He lacks the maturity and the discipline to respond in loving obedience. So on the flip side I don't just allow him to stay though in that place of immaturity but I and just wait for him to finally mature enough before connecting with him or finally approving of him. So what do I do? I look at these two sides and I have to decide I meet him where he is. I work with what he has and what he knows as a seven-year-old boy. He doesn't have the years of experience or mistakes that he's learned that like his father does. He doesn't have years of relationship with the Lord like his father does. I can't expect the same decisions from him that I would expect for myself and when I correct him he only has a limited scope and I have to help him and only what he understands. But I don't just stay in that place though. I have to take it one step further. So as a father through my experience and through my life in the Lord I see him for what he can become and I see him years from now in full maturity. So I call him forward. I coach him knowing that he's not gonna stay where he is forever but that does not mean that when he grows that he'll be more accepted or more loved. So this leads us to this next phase of answering the question who is your father? If we have an incorrect view of God then we most likely have an incorrect view of ourselves. If we see God as this angry taskmaster and not as a loving father then we're not gonna view ourselves as sons and daughters but as orphans and slaves. This assurance of God enjoying us is one of the primary emotional needs of all humans. We could have this right view of God but if we don't see ourselves rightly it could be just as damaging. That 1% could be just as toxic. So we all here even 1% tend to view ourselves through a filter of our negative emotions. We might measure our success by our failures. We might measure our maturity by our own sin or measure our acceptance by our reputation. We will focus primarily on the negative swirl of our depression, our addiction, our shame, our anger, our fear. The enemy like we mentioned earlier he wants to drive you away from the Lord by making you feel like you're too broken or too weak. That your sin is too great and it defines the whole of who you are and that you need to hide from the father in shame and he doesn't wanna hear your voice. We need to replace that distorted filter. Now we need to replace it with a filter of the lens of grace and the lens of the cross. Why is that? Well, this is how God looks at us. God views us through this lens. So why should we do anything different? When he looks down at you right now no matter how you feel he sees the blood of Jesus covering you and your weakness. He sees what Jesus did on the cross and that moment defines your identity. Now just because that's how God sees us your mind is not yet renewed.  You may be uncertain of where you stand. You're not sure if God delights in you or if he actually enjoys you. Conceptionally, technically I know he does.  Now I have two sisters who were adopted from the foster system and the eldest one she came from a very broken home. She wasn't guaranteed a meal. She didn't own a toothbrush. She was surviving day by day. I remember the court day where the judge declared her a child in a new home with a new family and it was instant and it was final and it was complete. She was officially a daughter and a family that loved her. But even though she heard this truth and she conceptually knew it in her mind that does not mean that she believed it. She still struggled with abandonment. She struggled with orphan mentality and she still felt unworthy of love. She had to war against the accusation and choose to believe the truth that she was a daughter and a family who loved her.  There's trauma that has to be healed. There's even new muscle memory that has to be relearned. But here is the good news. God is not put off by that. This is what he wanted from the beginning, communion. He created Eden to commune with us. Jesus died on the cross for a purified bride and the Holy Spirit gives us strength and grace and freedom so that we can walk in that new identity. So let's recap here. The question that I asked you all this morning is who is your father? Now the answer to that is who do you follow? How you answer that question will be determined by the filter that is over your eyes and over your heart. Is it a filter of an orphan spirit or is it a filter of grace through the cross? So three steps, how do we correct this filter? So step one is hard. You recognize and reveal. There's a mindset, a filter. Step two, it's the scripture part. We read, we repeat and we remember every single day. So step three is what we're gonna do now, prayer. We renounce the old and we receive the new. All of this should push us to prayer. This confidence in our identity, it produces relationship. Hebrews four, it says, let us with confidence draw near to the throne of grace that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in our time of need. Ephesians continues in chapter three in whom we have boldness and access so that we can approach him with confidence through our faith and identity in him. So how do you do this? Well, you take those small chunks of scripture and you bring them to the Father in prayer and you say, I struggle with this. Even 1% I struggle here. And it's hard for me to believe this, help me. Here is my heart, Lord. And allow the Father to dismantle every lie that is formed in your heart. You renounce the old and let him speak truth over you and we receive the new.

Ethylene is a key component in many plastic products, making it economically valuable. However, its production is currently dependent on fossil fuel sources, which are becoming increasingly expensive. Researchers are looking for alternatives to reduce costs and environmental impacts. This paper reviews several catalysts and reaction engineering techniques that have been developed to improve ethylene yields and reduce reaction temperatures. The most successful approaches include a nanocatalyst, a microreactor system, an algal-based ethanol. These methods could provide a more sustainable and cost-effective way to produce ethylene than traditional steam cracking. This article was authored by Hoshing Wu, Dujang Dai, and Denise Van.


My name is David Gutwin. I've been with the Asimov Volunteer Fire Department for 13 years. And the reason why I joined the fire department was in high school. I went to school where the magnet school where it was all about public safety stuff and fire was one of the things that I excelled at, so that's what I wanted to do. Also, I joined the fire department to help people.  No matter how hard you try, there's just ones that you can't save no matter what.  One, you never know what your day is going to be when the whistle goes off. You learn new things. You get to always help people. There's always something new you get to learn.


Okay. So this is how you would run that ad. So it'd be, it'd be coming into your business manager, coming into your ad manager, clicking that green button, watch, go back real quick, click in the green button and, and, and going engagement and then event responses. That's what it's all about. And so that's why, yeah, what is it, what is an engagement? It's when people click like comment, share, click the, click the, click the link, like anything, any, any form of touching that post, that's engagement. So yeah. So if I can get a ton of people in a local area to comment and share that post, why not? Yeah. That, that, that would be 10 times better than just posting on my personal page. Yes. And trying to get people on my personal page to know about my event coming up in two weeks, that's a waste of time. Yeah. Right. But when you put a little skin in the game and you actually, yeah, you actually running out on it, it's like, yeah, it could be, it could be powerful. But that's what you're looking forward to. So you're looking forward to, are expecting to comment, to reply to comments, to really check that news feed, to really make sure that, that people's questions are getting answered in that news feed, in that, in that post, I should say, in that post. Okay. But that'd be really good. So first, before we even do this, we got to create, we got to create the event. So let's go over to Facebook. Let's see on mine, click on that home at the top, go to your news feed. On my page, I couldn't find it to the left. Let's see if you see it to the left. Normally you'll see events, see more ad center. Right here. See, I don't know why I couldn't see mine. Maybe because I have mine hidden. I think in the settings you can, because I think I took that shortcut out. That's what it was. Click events. Okay. Yeah, I took mine out because I don't ever do events like this. But, but these are really cool. These are really effective when, for sure, you run an ad on it. And that's what we're going to do. So that's, that's where the power comes from. So click on that one, create new event. And all we're going to do is just put in all the details. You can go online. This one's going to be an in person. So click on that one. And then you just simply fill in the blanks. Event name, date, make it, make it public. And the post is Kara, right? So, and you can always edit this stuff too. This is not, you know, final. Like you can always edit, add the lender's name or whatever you guys want to do. You know, put the date, the start time, end date, end time. Okay. So here you can go private, public, friends. I'd go public, for sure. And then you just follow it through. So new home buyer educational event. Yeah, hit next. And we'll just location. This is where you get super specific. Yeah, this is really cool. Go ahead and you can allow on the top left, click on allow. So they they can match up the map. Yeah, perfect. Okay, cool. So man, look at that. That's amazing. That's amazing. Crazy. Have to put Texas. Yes, location. Yeah, try to put capital O, capital, I don't know if it's capital TX, but Odessa, maybe, maybe, yeah, spell it out and see if that even brings it. Actually, no, you're already there. The maps are there. Perfect. Save. So I want to do just this town or do I want to do any neighboring towns? Well, the events being held in Odessa. Yeah, so that's the location name. That's the location. Actually, you know what to tell you to that? No, you put the actual address, do you know the address? Yes. Yeah, that goes there. Yeah, that goes there. Awesome. So okay, so now, now, now safe. 99% positive, but you know, I just want to double check real quick for I'm looking for that dropdown. So, so an event is not at an address necessarily maybe, maybe what they're pulling is yeah, they're pulling actual places. Okay. Like, Oh, just Odessa? Yeah, see if no, the actual address for sure, like, yeah, that address would be. So do you see it down here? No, I don't. Okay, keep going. Because that's the name of the street in Odessa. Okay. Okay, cool. It's that first one, then is it a homestead? Yeah, perfect. That's what you want. So go with the, always go. Let me tell you this though. And then the description. See, that's where the address can go right there. Okay. Perfect. And then you can always, you can always have it have something in the title as well. New Homebuyers Educational Event in Odessa, right? Or it could be New Homebuyers Educational Event dash Aaron Parker, Aaron Parker Road. Okay. That can be in the title as well. Okay. So perfect. So description. Okay, cool. And maybe put, maybe get a little bit more specific. Maybe event will be held at or event will be held, like let's really put like a description in there. Okay. Options and so much more Saturday, May 7th at 12 p.m. Located. Perfect. Locate. There we go. Located at 701 7001 Aaron Parker Odessa, Texas. I love it. Perfect. And we can always come in and add more. So hit next and then let's see where it takes us next. So now a cover photo of the, the flyer won't be, won't be, yeah, won't work on that one because it won't look right. The dimensions. Oh, I see. Okay. But we can Google something. Open another tab. Open up another tab and let's just, let's Google, let's Google exactly that. Google, Google happy people at home buyer seminar. Happy people at home buyer seminar. And, and you'll be surprised on what we find. And then hit images at the top. See like we can easily get something cool. See, I like something. That's what I was envisioning. Someone in the foreground with a, okay. You just want to see any other ones. Whatever, whatever. I just want to see other options real quick. Yeah. And then we'll want to get, maybe see if we can find the exact dimension. You can, you can, I mean, you don't have to, but if it looks way off, then yeah, at least go to Canva resize it, if anything, but sometimes it plugs in and looks really good. But let's see what it, what it looks like. And for that, it's more of a, of a horizontal, like, like a widescreen horizontal watch. Go back to Facebook. Go back to that group. Look at the, so it's asking for a cover photo. So it's that top part, which is rectangle pretty much. Yeah. The cover, no, not to the left. Oh, I'm sorry. It's really, it's really to the right. The cover. Oh, I think the cover photo goes at the top, right where the number seven is. Yeah. That's the, like a rectangle type of, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I, I'm thinking, I'm thinking it goes there. That's the cover photo, but we'll see. We'll see. No, I bet you're right. I just don't want something, even though I was envisioning that. Okay. So we're simply grabbing an image and you don't ever have to worry about copyright infringement or anything like that because we're not selling the image. So no one's really coming after you. How do I get rid of this picture now? So now you should be able to hit back on the, to the bottom left back. Oh, okay. I've got a couple more. And then just hit next and see if it brings us back next. Click on, you should be able to just click on it and, and what? Be close. Try this new one. And it's still blurry, but still blurry. A little bit still blurry, but you get the idea. Try it. Save it for now. We'll always come back in here and you can find an element. Yeah. Publish event. Okay. Cool. So now you have a published event out there in cyberspace out there on Facebook. And, and now we can come back and run an ad and get engagement on this, on this event. Right. And that's the engagement we want. Like everybody will just simply do this right here and then go in, go and hit up all their friends, everyone on their friend list when 90% don't even live in the area. Yeah. That's what will happen. And then they'll go take this link and they'll put it in different Facebook groups.  You're, you have an event going on locally, but everyone you're reaching out to is globally or at least across the country. You know, when we're posting different groups or when we're posting, even on our personal pages. Yes, you have a handful of friends on there that you know, but the majority of them are people like Karen David, who are Facebook friends that aren't even in the same state. Yeah. That makes it, that's the majority of our friends. It's all I'm saying. So in this case, yeah, running the ad is, is the best thing you can do. So, so we, so we have a few more minutes. Let's run this ad. So we just posted it. Again, you can always come back here in here and add different events. Now that event will be in your event section. So you're upcoming events. You'll see those to the left. And, and, and then go ahead and go ahead and invite somebody. Why don't you invite that? Getting the, getting it set up and then, and then doing some basic organic real quick is not, is not bad. Invite someone. Invite. How do I do that? Right on the top, right? Invite. Oh, okay. And then see again, that's what this is what most will do. Most will come in here and go and freaking invite everyone. It's like, I'll get notifications for this. Well, it's not that I hate it. It's just the fact that what I'm saying is that the majority of the people that are viewing this are not even in the area. Yes. So if you, if we were to come in here and select all, it's like, dude, David's going to get a notification regarding Kara's event going on in Odessa, Texas, when David is in California. Yes.  That's what majority of people do. Yes. And it's like, man, that's, that's why I'm not into events because it's like, man, it's like, yeah. So unless you're running an ad, unless you're running an ad, then that makes more sense. And that's what we're going to do right now. So, but, but here at least invite maybe someone that's local or maybe someone that might fit that, that, that, that ideal client or, or maybe invite the lender, if you're friends with the lender, you know, basic people like that. Yeah. Right. See if you can maybe do a few real quick. And then, and then these are all of the salespeople in that office. Perfect. Perfect. Let them all know what's going on. Yeah. But, but all them bozos, I'm telling you, all they're going to do is go share it with their friend list. They're going to go post it on their business page, the event, the actual link to the event. Of course, when no one freaking cares, when no one is, is, is in that area. So, but that's fine. That's fine. That's these are the salespeople that are going to be at the event. Cool. So send them an invite and then, and then that's it. And then now we have the event. So now we can come back to the business manager, to the ads manager and run the ad. Okay. So now we can put a few bucks towards this. Go ahead and just close this out. Exit out. Let's start from scratch. And then just refresh the page. And then let's run this ad. So again, my screen looked a little different. My screen was the updated, I guess it's the updated, which I don't really like, but it's the updated. When you click the green button, go and click your green button. Mine as I showed you looks a little different than this. This is the older way. And I, and I actually love this way because it just shows more. But in this case with this event, it'll be engagement. So you're going to engagement. And then you're going to go event responses. So, so keep in mind the like ad that was engagement page likes, that's going to, to, to everyone, right? That's the most broad ad. This one here will be post engagement or event response engagement and we're running it locally. But your third ad will be conversions because that's when you would, that's when you would start capturing leads. Yes. It's on conversions, whether you're running an ad for a listing, that's where we need the cartridge page. Whether you're running an ad for an open house, that's when we'll need the cartridge page. If you're running an ad to give away a seller guide, that's when we'll need the cartridge page. That's conversions. So everyone that's online running ads for, for leads or for sales, if you have a website and you're selling necklaces, you're running ads for sales, that's conversions. So leads and sales. So from this point on, every ad, it'll be conversions. Okay. These first two are engagement and really it's no other objective outside of those two really. Cool. So here, continue. Event responses. And then now we're going into our three steps. Now it's all about the budget, the targeting, the ad, all that good stuff. Here is step one. So we're always going categories and we're always going to hit the drop-down. Okay. I'm sorry. Categories right here. Categories, drop-down and then we're going housing. That's right. Okay. So in your case, you're always going housing.  I would also go credit in this case as well. So choose credit. You can choose more than one. So in your case, you have, you're bringing up home buying. There's going to be financing involved, right? Questions people are going to have. So the whole conversation is around those two. So you'd have to check those two or that ad will get rejected. Okay. And then if you're in any of the other ones, if any other apply, then yeah, politics, but no, you're just doing those two really. But in the future, in the future, in the future, when you're only running ads for yourself, for your listing, for your open house, for your seller guide, buyer guide, whatever, and it's only Kara, you only need to go housing. Okay. Only reason why you're going, I'm having you go credit is because it's a home buying event and it is actually credit. So that's why I'm having you choose here. United States, leave that. We're going to, once we get to the second step, we're going to narrow it in and actually go with Odessa. But here we need United States. And that's it. And then hit next. So that's that's step one. Step one is choosing the objective. We did engagement. Step one is choosing the category, the special ad category, we chose housing, right? That's that's step one. That's step one. This is step two. This is tab two. This is what we see on the dashboard, the tabs, the three tabs. This is tab two, step two, the ad set. So here is where we choose the budget. It's where we choose the targeting and the calendar really and the placements. So here you can go, you're on daily.  You can, you can go minus. Yeah. Yeah. Go left. So you can go 10, nine, eight, you can bring down a five bucks. In this case, I mean, well, we're saying that this is going to run for two, you suggested two weeks because that would take us right up to them to the event. Yeah. So people know about it. And at $10 a day versus $5 a day, how much better is my going to be? Obviously double, but I don't even know what the reach projection possibilities are. It'll actually tell it'll give us an estimate to the right hand side. So as we plug in the, as we plug in the town Odessa, we'll see an estimate estimated reach to the right. So 10 for now or leave it at five for now. It's totally up to you. Whatever your budget, what I would do is go to lifetime, go to lifetime. So lifetime hit the drop down daily and go to lifetime. So drop down above the $10 daily. Yeah. Daily go to lifetime. So you're always going to want to run it in lifetime. And there's no difference. There's no dollar difference. Bring that dollar back 3350. Bring that all the way back to the left. Yeah. Come all the way back. So whatever your budget is, if you were going five bucks a day for the next 14 days, what is that? So five, five, five times 14 is what? Five times 14 70. If you're going double, that's 140. So if you're going 10 bucks a day, right? 10 bucks a day times how many days? 15 days or 14? 14 days. 14. So that's 140. So 10 bucks a day would be 140. And that's what that's what I would do. So I'd put that dollar amount there. I'd go lifetime and then I'd set the calendar. So the calendar is the same as daily. So if I go April, if I go April, always start at the next day. So we're at the 22nd. Yes. Go 23rd.  So 23rd, 6am. It's always the next day at 6am local time. So if I took April, 23rd to the what? To the, yeah, go ahead and pick whatever date is the day. So that's from the 23rd to the 7th. There's your $10 a day. It's the same thing, right? So when you do the math, it's the same. I just choose lifetime versus daily budget. Just so Facebook can spend it differently every day and it's the same dollar amount. Yeah. So 12am, 12am, perfect. So April, 23rd to May, 7th. Perfect. And then the end time. So it ends at what time? Or you can go end time or start time of the event. So I did both start time. That's what's the answer. What time is the event? What time is the event start? I put 12 o'clock here. It starts at 12. Perfect. Okay, cool. Okay, cool. And that's it. So lifetime budget, we go with the calendar. We scroll down. And now we're going to choose the location. So locations, we're going to edit that locations. And remember with the like ad, we went a bunch of different places, right? With the like ad, hit the X to the United States, hit the X, X that out. Now in this case, now from this point on, we're going local. We're going local. So if you type in Odessa, what I would do is I'd probably, you could type in the actual address for sure. Try that first. You can for sure. And that's what I recommend. When you come, when it comes to Facebook ads for rotors, like your local farm where you're actually trying to farm, go off of an address and let Facebook, because it has to be 15 mile radius minimum. You have to go out 15 miles minimum. Larissa and Parker elementary. Yeah, go 15 miles around that elementary. And that would capture probably everyone in that area, right? Or would you go, would you go? Let me, I don't, or take out, take out, take away Aaron Parker and do it again. That doesn't look like our area. These places that are on this map, you can always drop a pin. You can always drop a pin as well. Yeah. So going and again, if, if, if you go 20 miles, see where that takes you. You know, is that too far for people to travel, you know, 20 miles? Yeah, no, this is good because this even gets half of Midland. It gets all the way up to, there's a couple of little towns up here that definitely, yeah. And this gets pretty far south before you start getting into more country living. So this is, this is good. Perfect. So scroll down. You cannot change age. That's one thing in housing. Can it change gender? You cannot target or discriminate gender. So and then yeah, none of that applies. And then, and then, and then yeah, detail targeting doesn't need to be on automatic placement. Leave it on this. Leave it on this. Well, I'll teach you more about automatic and manual. You know what? There's really nothing to it. All that is, it is what it is.  And to know everywhere there are placements on Facebook, all you got to do is click on manual. So if you click on manual, you'll see all the different placements on Facebook and even on Instagram. So if you hover over any of these squares, yeah, hover over all of them. These are all different placements on Facebook that we see ads subconsciously and we don't even realize. Right. These are all different. Is it subconsciously or consciously? Which word is it? Subconsciously. Some consciousness, right? Like we see it subconsciously and we don't even realize it. These are all the different placements. So Facebook, it's all up to you. You can be as specific as you want.  You can get super specific. Right. So a lot of times though, a lot of times leaving it on automatic and letting Facebook place it everywhere, they see fit is always good. But even as we go into local ads for leads, we'll start testing manual placements as well. We'll do a few manual placement and we'll see the difference. Okay. Like manual placement, for example, click on manual placement. I could tell Facebook, I only want my ad being shown in the newsfeed. Okay. So I can uncheck everything and only, only leave check that one. I can only leave check that one because me as a consumer, I'm on my newsfeed on my cell phone. I'm on my newsfeed on my computer. That's really where all my attention is, is in the newsfeed. Same with Cara. Our attention is in that newsfeed. Very rarely are we all on these, all these other placements of Facebook. Unless we are, we are for sure. Billions of people are for sure. But if I really want to zone in, I could, that's what this is. You can zone in on one place on Facebook and say, hey, put all that money towards this one placement. And a lot of times we do Facebook newsfeed only. So just that one and then the marketplace. So we'll leave those two checked and uncheck everything. That's manual placement. That's when you're manually doing it and you're telling Facebook where to do it, where to put it. But, but we'll do the top one for now. We'll do the top one for this event. Okay.  So, so next, next, that's step two. That was tab two, the ad set level. That was it.  And this is where we actually choose the ad. So if you, if you click on, on Facebook page, click on that Facebook page there and then choose, choose your page. Okay. And then, and then go ahead and choose your page there. This one? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So right here it says, and then, and then add setup, go ahead and create ad, hit that dropdown. And then use words, use creative hub. No, wouldn't be that one. It's, we don't got to mess with any of that top part. It's really just this event, this Facebook event right here. So, but we could put the text for sure, but the Facebook event. So go enter your event name or Facebook event URL. So type in the name and see if there's a dropdown. And if there's not, then we'll grab the link for the, for the event. I'm not getting any dropdown. Yeah. So let's just simply, let's just simply grab the link. So let's go to Facebook, open up that the other tab up there. Yeah, grab this link at the top. So in fact, this is, is this the actual, yeah, you should be able to grab that link at the top. So we're going to refresh the page, refresh, refresh this page, because you don't need that whole long link. You just need Facebook.com forward slash events. You need to copy that entire, you can, all that whole new, you see all those numbers. So from the numbers left, yeah, from the nine, from the nine all the way left, copy that. Yeah, that's, that's, I'm pretty sure that's all you need right there. Copy all of that. Perfect. Copy and see if you can just paste it in over there. There we go. Perfect. So hit the dropdown. And then, and then what you can do is you, you can, you can put some text, you could put some text. That's the image that was show, which is perfect. But you could put some text at the top. And what I'd probably do is go to, go to your other face, go to the Facebook tab, go to, go back to that event and maybe the info that you put in the description, free educational event for all new. That could be your, your, what we call ad copy, which is the text that could be your ad copy for the ad. So perfect. So take that to the primary text at the top, paste that in. Where's, where do I do that? In this, this here? No, up, up to the left primary text. Oh, right here. Gotcha. So paste that in. Okay. So, oh, look at that. Yeah. Okay. So free educational event for all new home buyers to ask loan questions and down payment options and so much more. Perfect. Bring that Saturday hit enter. Bring that Saturday down in the text. Yeah, bring that Saturday. Yeah, bring that down. Just hit enter. Maybe again. Yeah, that's perfect. And then they click on see more. Yeah, perfect. No, that's fine. That's, that's perfect. Okay, cool. And then, and then website, website events, there's your pixel, the green dot and then hit publish. And that's it. That's it. So nothing else needed. If you click the green publish button, let me show you what's next that ad will go in review. And then you'll get an email in the next, I would say next few hours. Let's see what's missing. So scroll back up right here on this page and just scroll, scroll back up. What, what else? So unable to create ad for events, your Facebook must be an event host or co-host to create ads for events. Okay, so try asking the event host or co-host to add your Facebook page as a co-host. That's what it is. Okay, cool.  So right here, we should go to, we should be able to go to the settings. Where's the, um, so in this case you ran, you set up an event on your business page. So not from your personal profile. We want to do that. Is that the right one? No, no, no. Yeah, paste in yours. Just paste it in. It is, it is that one, but just paste it in just, just in case. And then now choose it. That's fine. Perfect. Okay. Awesome. We don't want to do that old one. Yeah. So we're good. So we got text, we got, um, the link, proper link website events, down at the bottom. Everything is good. So now publish. And then now you'll get an email from Facebook within the next, within the next few hours, um, saying your, your event is scheduled or your ad is scheduled or running. So you're good. You're good. Okay. So now X out, let me show you what it looks like in the news feed. So as it goes live, we can, we could take a live look at it. So uncheck the one selected to the right, the blue, the one selected. X that out. And the third tab adds to the very, very right. No, no, no, very, very right. Yeah. Oh, okay. Cool. Or you can uncheck that box. Yeah. Perfect. Now check it again and then click on edit to the below the title. So right here below the title. Yeah. Here is just what it'll look like in the news feed. So if you click on, on share, um, in the top right, the dropdown, you can view it from Facebook desktop news feed. Since we're on desktop, go down to that view. Yeah. Facebook desktop news feed. And here it just shows you a real live view. So right below your friend here with the eggs, you'll see yours come up next. So keep going. There is the ad. So what I would do is I'd probably take that, take the link and just, and just share it, um, with your lender and just say, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, John, I got an ad going out, man, looking for, for a good turnout.

Good day fellow investors, today I'm going to make a case why emerging markets should be an essential part of every well-balanced stock portfolio. I have been discussing gold, precious metals, commodities, copper, zinc, where I'm very bullish and this now emerging markets is also a very very important sector where I look for investments. So you get the notion of the team for perhaps the next few months among other things that we'll talk on this channel, other stocks, other sectors, but I'm going to analyze country-by-country, give you interesting stock picks, why I think some are good, some are bad. Emerging markets are a very very different animal so you have to know them in order to understand and invest properly in them. My PhD was on stock risk on emerging markets so I hope to add as much value as possible to your investment and your investment returns. So let's start immediately and check what happened in the past, what are the fundamentals, what are the economics, what are the macroeconomic trends, what are the demographics, economic growth, what will happen, what we can expect and what is the price we have to pay. I'm going to use emerging market ETFs as an example to get an aggregate view. However I'm completely against ETFs so and I'll explain that in a special video about emerging markets but just to give you an example I'm going to use that now. So let's check how the emerging market ETF did in the last 15 years. You can see a great bull run from 2003 to 2007 where emerging markets increased fivefold. This was due to high expectations of economic growth, economic development, opening of world trades and etc. Then 2007 panic on emerging markets and the emerging market ETF was down 63% during 2009. Recovered but we have seen many corrections, many market corrections and the beer market in 2015 where the emerging market ETF fell again 45%. Since then emerging markets have recovered a bit but they are still 24% below their 2007 peak. So from 2003-2007 euphoria around emerging markets and since then the market has been very careful about investing in emerging markets. They are crazy about SAP 500 but emerging markets are mmm this is because in behavioral finance we call it domestic bias. You prefer to invest in what you know and understand well. The price doesn't matter that much. So where the capital is Wall Street Europe they prefer to put it in the SAP 500. Even Europe prefers to put it in the SAP 500. No matter the valuation. This gives us the opportunity to invest in irrationally priced stocks around the globe because others are not willing to invest there yet. However when there will be euphoria those stocks will shoot up. In the meantime let's look at fundamentals to see what are the earnings yield that we can expect. So let me just quick check on the ETF fundamentals which are aggregate so don't take them as given. There are many many differences in price earnings ratio, price to book values, risks, rewards, currencies. There is a lot to know before investing in an emerging market but this picture will tell us enough. Price earnings ratio in this case without the negative earnings but okay is 14.59. Price to book ratio is 1.64. Standard deviation which is volatility a measure of risk completely wrong but let's check it 16.13. If we compare that to the SAP 500 we can see that the price earnings ratio is 6.6 points higher thus 30% more expensive at least. Price to book ratio is double thus twice as expensive as emerging market stock. Standard deviation is a bit lower because the SAP 500 was very very stable with low volatility but that doesn't mean anything for the value long-term investor. So the fundamentals are already better. Now you would say okay but those are emerging markets of course they have to be priced at the discount. Let me show you the macroeconomic fundamentals and then I hope you will see my point. As I said in 2007 the euphoria was based on huge expected future economic growth. The funny thing is that that happened. That actually happened. You can see here in a chart from the International Monetary Fund how China has been constantly growing above 8% and now will grow for about 6% in the future. Other Asian countries like India, Indonesia, Malaysia will grow at also 5-6% in the future and have been growing around 5% in the past. Commodity exporters those countries that are dependent on oil metals iron have had a tough time in the last few years but are also expected to recover. Russia is here also and grow at 2-3% in the next 4-5 years. So the economics look amazing. Growth of 5% for many countries 2-3% for the commodity exporters. So short-term outlook is very very positive. Let me just compare it to advanced economies Europe US, Japan. We can see that expected growth is around 2% and it often goes below 1% or close to zero and perhaps we are also will turning into a recession when the credit cycle turns. However emerging market economies and developing economies will continue to grow at 5%. If there is a global slowdown they will grow at 3-4%. So economic growth is there. So where do you want to invest? In economics that grow at 2% at their maximum with a recession around the corner or in economics that grow at 5% and are priced cheaper than the developed economics. You make the decision. I'll conclude with a few charts with small commentary just to make you think about what's going on because we live in our world. We see what's going on here. We don't see what's going on in other parts of the world. However that's essential because we are all interconnected. The price we pay here for something is related to the price of that item in Brazil, in Japan, in China. So everything is interconnected in this world. And I have viewers practically in every country in the world already with just this small YouTube channel. So everything is really really interconnected. Let's start with global population growth. So global population growth will slow however. It will be negative in developed markets and still increased by about 3 billion in emerging markets. So emerging markets will have population growth. Something developed countries will not. When the population grows more spending, more infrastructure, more building, growth economy. Especially those that go into development. African countries unfortunately are not at that level yet. I really hope that that turns in the future and we see also Africa as a developing continent. So with the population growth and the fact that the majority of that population is young by 2040 90% of the working-age population will live in emerging markets. China, Middle East, Africa and India. So if 90% of the population, working-age population, lives in developing countries, we can only imagine the productivity. They will have capital in they have more and more capital. So the main productivity which is the essential factor in economic growth, in investment growth, in development will be coming from emerging markets. I want to be invested there. And I'll finish with the expected share of global middle class consumption. For now, India and China are spending around 10% of the global middle class consumption. By 2030 it will be 40%. By 2040 it will be 50%. Other Asia will also grow significantly while developed economies and this is a trend that we can't do anything about. Will decline, not decline in the sense that there will be terrible economic issues, but will decline in their global share of the economic market. The S&P 500 did extremely well in the last 40 years. This is because the US economy did extremely well in the last 40 years. So common sense investing, look at where we are now. Which economies will do phenomenally in the next 40 years as the US economy did in the last 40, 60, 90 years? Emerging markets. Share your emerging markets investing ideas. I love to check them out when you type them down. See the risks, see the rewards. The long-term trends are clear and we just have to find the lowest risk high return investment in emerging markets. And that's why we are here. Click subscribe and I'll see you in the next video.


Hello everybody, so I am going to discuss about celebration recipes in this part. What I have noticed that you know celebration has become so important for children that every other week children are invited to birthday parties. Now this is primarily for little bit older children but even toddlers are invited to Lord this birthday parties and what we have experienced that most of the time the celebration parties have so much of junk food actually you know. I can understand if a child is attending a celebration party once every kind of few weeks or maybe once a month or two you know that is a different story but here like lot of time what I see is many, many children they attend you know on normal days or normally or they attend at least 10 to 12 to sometime 15 birthday parties you know and this is true even in a school celebration because even in school celebration what happens when a child has their birthday they bring some chocolate, they bring some cookies, they bring some biscuit, they distribute to other children and here what happens unfortunately the children you know they kind of they feel that this is a positive reinforcement that if you are happy you have to eat sweet. So that is you know I am kind of little bit against that fundamental that why should you treat a child for some happy event with sweet why not something which is healthy right. You were trying to kind of change this mindset and what I recommend is that whenever there is a celebration as parents we need to encourage healthy recipes on those celebrations starting from your own home you know even if you have a birthday party at home think of more like you know either carrot cake or something not adding too much of this all-purpose flour or meadow, white sugar you know you can add so many other natural sweet products which are available like for example dates you can use or you can use banana or any of those sweet fruit as a celebration menu not on a regular basis but just in a celebration menu. So here we have created some of these recipes we have part 1 and part 2 and I do acknowledge Dr. Rika Harish she is from Indian Academy of Pediatrics and she had encouraged us to create this menu for children you know for celebration parties. Another thing which I do recommend is suppose if children get any of these cookies or candies biscuits or chocolates from school say if somebody gave it to them because of their birthdays you ask them to bring it home you know and tell them to save it for say every Sunday or maybe you can decide one day they can save it in the refrigerator they can put it in one box encourage them to have it just once a week.  So try to incult it those habits in children to get them off this sugar addiction. Sugar addiction is so kind of rampant in our children and it is very very unfortunate so as you can see from all our recipes you know we have not added sugar or jaggery in regular complimentary foods but even in celebration party we have not added sugar or jaggery at all in any of our recipes we have added some probably dates or banana or some of those sweet fruits or you know dry fruits but again this is a celebration menu so on a regular basis I do not recommend adding too many of the sweet fruits dry fruits because those are very high in fructose and fructose does cause fatty liver it does have repercussion you know for metabolic health and we want to make sure that our children when they are growing up they do not get high triglyceride level they do not get pre-diabetic just in Gujarat CNS reports says 20% children are pre-diabetic and there are children between 5 to 9 years of age okay now this 5 to 9 years of age if these children are getting pre-diabetes that means started early on it did not start a year ago 2 years ago it started probably from birth you know so you want to make sure that our children get breast milk okay which will prevent you know help with decreasing diabetes and blood pressure later on and then at 6 months you start food which is extremely healthy nutrient dense no sugar no jaggery and even between 1 to 2 years of age you want to encourage children to have healthy food and even if they go to celebration party you want to create that healthy you know healthy mindset in a child that they would only select healthy food out of that you know so that would start from actually parents that would start from family so if child sees that mother and father are only selecting healthy food from say if they go out for dinner if they're going out for you know birthday parties or any kind of marriage parties children would follow that okay so you know for a healthy child you need to have healthy family okay so that's what this kind of tutorial is about we have created two celebration tutorials and enjoy and make it and you know let me know how you find those recipes thank you welcome to the spoken tutorial on delicious recipes for kids
