I often contemplate what it might be like to see things from the “other” side. In this post, I’m not referring to gender identities or other individual characteristics but to those who may seem to harass or deceive what we consider “normal” people.
As members of a society that frequently prioritises the needs and interests of seemingly “normal” individuals, it can be challenging to truly empathise with those who fall into the “other” category. Can life on the other side be enjoyable as well? Do these people live according to the proclaimed standards? Do they genuinely forgo comfortable modes of transportation and take the train to the Mediterranean for their vacations? Can they provide ample proof of their wealth when switching banks within Switzerland and a complete set of income statements? Don’t they get annoyed at getting caught in a speed trap on a clear, visible stretch of road?
I only have sympathy for the other side up to a certain point. However, I actively recycle waste. Our flat boasts a photovoltaic system on its roof, and we opted for a short-distance car powered by solar energy. I do these things out of my conviction and not because I’m succumbing to external pressure, being bullied, or being swayed by propaganda.
Our financial sector is buckling under pressure. It faces external attacks and adds internal self-restrictions. However, there is hope. The industry of independent wealth managers navigates financial landscapes and can choose among different levels of chicanes.
I appreciate the diligent efforts of the principled relationship managers in the FIM/EAM departments. They tirelessly represent our interests and navigate internal challenges. Thank you for fighting for us!
