I'm sorry, but that is just not an acceptable excuse in this case. I acknowledge that ageism is real, but I've also worked in companies where we went out of our way to hire older engineers. That said, the article makes it sound l

This girl is so obnoxious. When I did a startup in San Francisco in 2008, I stayed in a shared house in South San Francisco with immigrants. I was informed after the day I moved in that I wouldn't have access to the kitchen. My rent

I don't think that you have any reason to worry. Once everybody is using index funds, there will be plenty of opportunities for actively managed profits, and people will begin to take advantage of it again.
