Who is the richest person in the history of the world? Some claim it is the John Rockerfeller. The challenge with this idea is the fact that someone making minimum wage in a developed country as more than Rockefeller. He didnt have air conditioning, a smart phone, or internet access. Hell, anyone online has access to more information than Ronald Reagan did as President.
In this video we discuss how things change a great deal due to technology and this drives massive shifts in society. As we sit here in 2022, what will be generated over the next 40 years is mindblowing. This is where people underestimate what is taking place.
Of course, who in 1980 could have predicted a lot of what we have in our homes today?

I don't think anyone expected our lives to change so much in a few decades and the growth of technology over the past decade has been eye-opening. The way the internet has evolved is showing us that society is changing at a rapid pace and we must adapt to whatever comes forward.

Exciting things ahead. Just thinking about how technology evolved and innovations have come to pass during the last couple of years, it is very possible that a lot of things is going to happen in the next years and they will come with many different opportunities for everyone.

And there are those people who glorify times in the past. I see so many adults glorifying the '90s and '00s. My dad says the '70s were the best. The times were not better. People just felt freer in their youth. We must live in such a way that we become more free and more happy and healthy the longer we live on the planet.
The '90s and '00s sucked as far as freedom and ideas. What people who weren't there (and often even the people who were there) don't understand is the intolerance that was everywhere. It penetrated every aspect of life. You think of race, sexual orientation, but they were times of intolerance in all regards. There was one way to be and that was it. And if you weren't that you felt incredibly ashamed because you thought you were the only one, and often people hid who they really were and lied about it. They often even hid who they were from themselves. Of course this still happens. But the spread of ideas has meant no one feels like the only one, and it has resulted in tolerance and a massive expansion of people's minds. This cannot be overstated.
There is one thing that I think is a legitimate concern of modern times and the outlook for the future, and I think that is the in-person socializing in our lives, the belonging to community. As we become more technologically advanced and wealthier, we don't need each other for survival. Socializing with people who are like us and people who are very much not like us from anywhere in the world has been a massive win for our evolution and individual and collective personal growth. But I think there's a very solid argument for the human need for community and close personal relationships. I hear all over the internet people longing for human connection who don't know how to get it. Since we had essentially nothing to do in the '90s and before, we used to literally just sit together. For hours and hours. I think this is what accounts for people's longing for the past. I see it not only in people who actually lived in it, but young people who didn't. But this isn't unfixable.
