Kaws • The Promise, by RoboJ on Nov 20, 2022 1:52:53 GMT 1, Managed to get a brown, my first Kaws finally! Love it. I just haven’t received any email confirmation at all though. Has anyone else had this?

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by RoboJ on Jul 27, 2022 16:53:25 GMT 1, Hirst has gone all nft. He can afford. If you take his 1000 nfts out of the numbers you have 5149 physical and 3851 nfts. That’s a lot more than I expected but still people see the value in physical over a digital representation.

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by RoboJ on Jul 27, 2022 12:36:53 GMT 1, Why does he need to reward people who hold the NFT over people who hold the original works?
Its happened a few times now and appears to be a mechanism to try and maintain some value in NFT's. NFT's as an artwork will die off. It's clear that original works of art must always be of greater value than their digital representation by their very nature.

Damien Hirst NFT "The Currency", by RoboJ on Jun 13, 2022 15:53:49 GMT 1, The Mona Lisa will never been taken down to make way for a digital representation. No representation of a thing can ever be perceived with greater valve than the thing it aims to represent.
NFT's will have been fun for some but their value and purpose lays in certification and proof of ownership. The only reason there is value in the currency NFT is its link to an original artwork. Once the deadline passes, they can't be as valuable as an original painting because they are only a representation of one. Yes they may be rare (because nobody wanted one) which may give it a little spike but they will soon die off.

Sales above $10k, by RoboJ on Apr 11, 2022 14:39:02 GMT 1, Always in person and only with bank transfer. If you're the seller make 100% sure your buyer is happy and sign a receipt saying they have inspected it first. If you're a buyer, go and see it in person and make sure you're 100% happy before sending a bank transfer.
All back ground things such as checking authenticity can be done prior to meeting. I hope this helps.

Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine 🇺🇦, by RoboJ on Feb 25, 2022 21:22:14 GMT 1, The problem isnot only PUtin ( even i he is of course ) ... It's the problem of all Russia : my nephew is married with a Girl form Moscow, all her family is agree with that. Putin is a god for mostly of them, and Russia must be strong and the best ! Even Russian intellectuals working in France love Putin I have had verbal fight with a few of them. It's unbelivable... But yes Putin is a t**t. I'm sorry but this is awful to read. I have Russian friends and have found them to be no different to anyone else I've met. The people are never the problem, its the governments and individuals. Those seeking more power, those looking to better themselves and those who can twist a narrative to somehow justify their actions to themselves. They completely lose perspective and dont see it.
I really hope that things don't turn out the way they're looking and wish the best for the Ukrainian and Russian people who will suffer from this.

Damien Hirst H10 • The Empresses, by RoboJ on Feb 12, 2022 21:24:57 GMT 1, Just declare it and pay it. It's a very easy process and larger transactions get reported anyways. Obviously pay tax on it, I just don't think a couple of flips constitutes a business, so pay cap gains If its a couple of items then declare capital gains if you exceed the threshold. If its more than 6 items in a year then you have to register as a business. This was the advise my accountant gave me. I've always declared any big sales as id rather sleep at night.

Damien Hirst H10 • The Empresses, by RoboJ on Feb 2, 2022 12:02:07 GMT 1, A few things. They aren’t as wall friendly as the virtues however the virtues shot up in value. That means more people will buy them this time with the anticipation of making money however there will not be so many buyer because they aren’t as wall friendly, the market will be flooded and many more will have bought from source. Buy one if you want to hang it, if it goes up in value then great

Pejac Show in Berlin - APNEA, by RoboJ on Oct 31, 2021 18:39:08 GMT 1, Sorry, RoboJCompletely missed the safe and the pencil sharpner. I have no idea where those were..... Safe got stuck in Vat-custums after what I heard. Same same, but different.
That’s right, it’s still there now... so we had the second safe delivered and I finished it about 7pm on the 29th before we could open the doors to the room. Right next to the Seppuku room. Talk about stress! Haha the Sharpener piece was opposite the gramophone. I hope you enjoyed the show still. Pejacs paintings were really inspirational, Abyss in particular. I love how he has the confidence to try different mediums and techniques. He clearly loves what he’s doing.

What do you drive? , by RoboJ on Oct 19, 2021 12:15:52 GMT 1, I guess it’s about time to switch to hybrid or 100 percent electric... 100% electric is fine when you use it as a daily driver to work etc. But if you enjoy roadtrips like we do it's rather useless. If I want to visit a show in Paris I would have to spend a night in Brussels to get there. And again on the way back. Instead of driving there in a straight line for 6 hours..... Hybrid would be much more usefull in that case. I'm just worried about the life expectancy of those batteries. After 5 years they might need to be replaced and they are expensive! So buying a second hand car is risky. Personally I drive so few miles it's not worth it. I don't know what ev you're driving but I can attest my model 3 is brilliant for long drives. I've driven to Paris and the south coast many times. The batteries are extremely good, yes they loose a bit of capacity over time but so does a combustion engine.
There are only 3 advantages to combustion.
Price (hopefully not for too long) Heat is a natural by product (because they are so inefficient) You can drive for 5 hours if you really have to (many EV's are not that far behind)
In all other areas, without exception, electric is a superior product to combustion. Efficiency, performance, ecologically, convenience, safety, control, longevity, complexity....
