I think AirBNB does big time, huge amount of income for a lot of low to medium income earners. Enough to build wealth, put a kid through college, or pay the morgage. And, on the flip side it has enabled millions of people to travel and exp other cultures/places in a new and more intimate way. I've personally live out of AirBNBs in other countries for multiple years.
I think this bar to world changing is way too high, little changes can make big impacts over long periods. Especially on cultural values.
- JohnFen 7y agoRegarding AirBNB -- you may be right, but I'm not so certain. It appears to me that the amount of impact it has depends a great deal on where you are. In my area, AirBNB isn't a significant factor at all -- but in a city a couple hundred miles away from here, it's had a significant impact. Facebook's impact is obvious to pretty much everyone, everywhere. AirBNB? Not so much. Which is not to say it's had no impact... > I think this bar to world changing is way too high, little changes can make big impacts over long periods. Especially on cultural values. I agree entirely with this.
