/**
 * Annotation is marking terminal methods - methods, that need to be invoked in order to make sure, that some action
 * is performed.
 * Typically if we have a builder pattern, which is not actually returning it's result, it's simple to forget the
 * terminal method, and not have the things done.
 *
 * Example of such method - send(), save(), verify(), execute(), etc.
