FWIW I’m a genx who did well and I didn’t grow out of it.

I know the system is rigged, I don’t want to hoard anything, and I want to live in a world where everyone does well.

People that change their values because they make a lot of money don’t actually have any values.

That sounds about right, I’ve definitely found a number of them in sales. They tend to have a talent for sales because of the lack of morality and the insane charm.

If they try to ingratiate themselves too aggressively, if they make way too good eye contact and smile so big and are effusively positive, and they make the hairs on the back of my neck crawl, I know it’s highly likely I’m interacting with a sociopath or psychopath.

Everyone that’s normal has a chance to be good or evil and it changes over time.

I’ve encountered quite a few of these people in my years and they often are in positions of authority because they are really good at fooling and manipulating people.

JFC jobs aren’t getting automated they are getting enhanced.

Work will shift it’s not going away.

This hyperbolic c suite AI nonsense is pure pump and dump.

You have to let the algorithm decide how you should be creeping. Shh, sleep now, and scroll, and click.

Those who didn’t vote and those who voted for Trump have Minnesota blood on their hands.
