Survive, survive, survive, economic disaster, survive, economic disaster, that's our topic today.

How to survive, economic disaster, and I think we have an economic disaster in many places around the world.

Perhaps I don't say everywhere, but possibly, either now or coming soon.

Economic disaster.

So, let's talk about that, survive economic disaster, and our topic is by working smarter, not harder, by working smarter, not harder.

First of all, welcome back everyone who is live, who's joining me live, good to see you all.

What does this mean? It means to, it means to figure out the, what, you know, the cause of a problem, basically, figure out the cause of a problem.
