[quote=flu]Side jobs are created from change and engineering. Adapt or die. It’s that simple.
You’ll still need attorneys, accountants, people in marketing, sales, etc. It’s not really going to be any different.[/quote]
-Attorneys: A lot of legal information can now be found online, as can the forms that people can use to represent themselves. The legal profession has been severely hit over the past few years.
-Accountants: Technology is drastically changing the way people use accountants as software can now do in a few hours what many accountants had to physically spend weeks/months/years doing. Companies can also outsource a lot of the work to low-wage countries.
-Marketing/Sales: The travel industry has already been hammered by technology, and the real estate industry has been taking a beating as well. The entertainment industry (a.k.a.: biggest player in the marketing) has been hard hit by large, medium, and small-time competition that was often made possible by technology and outsourcing. And we all know how they’ve been very negatively affected by the internet.
Anyone who thinks they are going to come out of this unscathed — no matter how smart or how driven they are — is deluding him/herself.
