I kicked off 2024 at Kyungnam University. I gave a special lecture on ‘Bottari Trade’ (small-scale cross-border trading) to undergraduates about to start an exciting, high-energy practicum in late January: traveling between Korea and Vietnam, buying and selling goods, and ranking 1st, 2nd and 3rd by gross profit margin. I also traded back and forth between Japan, China, Nepal and India as a college student, so I focused on what to watch out for and on my own failures.
