10 years from now, someone else will be looking on whatever you were able to do with envy... well, maybe.

- rubiquity 6y agoI sincerely hope not. If such a thing were to happen that means the wealth divide would be significantly worse. That’s the opposite of the direction the world needs to be going in.
- vsareto 6y agoI'm pretty sure the only way the world's direction changes suddenly (and for the better) is if someone drops a nuke on Davos during a conference. This nihilism does no one any favors of course. I just think we're no where near a breaking point for any of it to change significantly.
- uncletammy 6y agoMiddle millennial here. I've pretty much given up home for my generation getting the opportunity to experience this effect. The problem seems to be a combination of boomers having been too greedy and millennial expecting opportunities to "trickle down" if they play within the system they were taught to. Newer generations lucked out because they learned early that boomers will only help themselves and the only chance they have for social mobility is to gamble their way into wealth. Lucky for them, they'll get to live out their life being served coffee by some of the smartest, most well educated baristas the world has ever seen.
