Of all my friends from back in the early 2000's, we've all pretty much had the same life arc. Some people got jobs as lawyers, some at banks, some were in a band, some were social workers, and then there was me - no fancy job, no money, and just a crappy car and a very friendly cat. 20 years later, we live all around the world but the circumstances are largely similar. A job which is ok, a house, kids - nothing much to complain about really. One of the biggest learnings I've had is that people make decisions (some of which I wouldn't personally agree with), but we all end up in mostly the same place. People who are going to struggle for the next year or two will be fine, but the future and the path they take might be a bit different to what they expected.
