One thing I should comment I think perhaps we’ll need to educate our kids…Unless your kid is going to be a recipient of a trust fund, the future is going to look increasingly much more competitive than anything you or even I have seen.
Simply put, the world is smaller, it’s more competitive, and resources (in this cause opportunity) is going to get more and more limited. The world isn’t gonna stop for your kid or anyone else for that matter.
Let’s put this in perspective.
1. Engineering in U.S. is not nearly as cushy as one use to be….
2. In medicine, doctor’s aren’t exactly having a cushy job these days either.
3. A lot of attorneys these days struggle (it’s not a walk in the park either)
4. Investment banking/finance isn’t what it use to be either.
