I’m pushing 40 and side with the article. It takes about 20 years of paying one’s dues to really understand how broken the entire system is. How much effort year after year it takes to tread water, to climb slower than one is capable of, to get pushed back by debt and doing what others tell us. That’s the part I’d specifically like to do away with - the rat race. I’m older, more broken today, but no more capable than I was when I was 20. I mostly see the wasted time and how others happened to land on the lucky side of things. Now that I have some semblance of stability in my life, I’d prefer to give it all away if it allowed others to self-actualize earlier. I’m wondering if this is something one either groks or doesn’t, and how to communicate with people who only talk but don’t listen.
