Friends, Happy New Year 2015 to you all!

It was a tough year: things happened that would never have crossed my mind a year ago. Devaluation, forecasts of “20 hryvnias and 70 rubles to the dollar” – I’d heard them, but somehow didn’t believe them until the very end. Over the year, the official hryvnia rate fell almost by half, from 8 to 15.8 UAH per dollar, and on December 16 the dollar briefly topped 80 rubles on the Moscow Exchange.

But the most important thing is that we’re alive and keep on living. That means the past years weren’t wasted: we’ve learned a thing or two and become stronger.

For 2015 I wish all of you and myself health, love, patience, deposits rather than loans (in decent banks) and family happiness.

Only forward, not a step back – there’s no other way :-)

The world doesn’t stand still: in nine years, a memory card the size of a fingernail started holding a thousand times more data. So anyone who stands still is actually sliding backwards.
