Making money consciously Contributing social value is the primary strategy for making money consciously, but by itself it’s still not enough. The problem with social value is that your personal values won’t perfectly align with the social consensus.

Second, rationale for changes in one member’s affects other members through contagion. For example: if Korea’s index declines due to concerns over a slowing US economy, then a similar rationale should also affect Taiwan. From a statistical point of view, the interesting question is does movements in regional indices affect the JCI? If the answer to the first question is yes then we can ask next do the regional indi
