This feels like the financial version of, “front end feels too complicated. Let’s make it simple.” And then they re-discover all the hard fought lessons one by one until their framework is complicated too.
- mtlmtlmtlmtl 4y agoExactly. Or young people coming out of college having this adorably naïve, idealistic world view where everything fits nearly into their world view. Then they live some, experience things that don't fit so neatly, and begin to acknowledge the complexity of the world, becoming more pragmatist politically. At least that was my experience of 20->30. I can't even think of a long sentence that encapsulates my world view anymore, let alone a single word like "conservative", "anarchist" or whatever. When I was 20 I could have easily done so.
