I'd say that capital flows freely and advice can be given anywhere. What's hard to cultivate and maintain at a distance is friendship.

- falsedan 10y agoI think that capital aggregates in trade centres, where materials can be exchanged and deals can be made extremely swiftly. People closer to the trade can get information more quickly, and quickly react to it too. Individual capital is very liquid, but the herd is not. Consider San Francisco: it has capital because of tech, because of the need for electronics & power for running a port, because of the trade in the Bay, because of the gold miners in 1849. That capital hasn't moved significantly to (say) Bakersfield.
