I am not so sure, any more. I see our family businesses at end of line not because we can not compete but because the children have so many other options. However, many of the options are superficially attractive and the reality is not so great. I got into computers/programming almost 35 years back in a decent university, but I see kids now getting into programming in tier 3 and 4 schools thinking they made their career. I see Canada offering almost free visas and permanent residency but there are no jobs for the ones at bottom. Eventually the youngsters at bottom of the food chain will figure something out, but they may be better off sticking to a business that works. And there are millions of them buying the glamour. We only know the story of the ones who make it to bay area (or its ilk). Maybe I am presenting a one sided story, but that is just due to shortage of time. Maybe some other day if a topic comes up.
