The reality is that they are both right, we need a shift on both front and as the middle class we need to not wholly trust either of them to do it right.

Millennials got it worst in terms of previous generations...except, we did not have major wars. However, economy did not work on our favour at all, baby boomers were strongly lucky. I think gen Z understood some things better in terms of money and how to make it and sooner than us which seems to be a benefit for the future...but not sure what future holds. Maybe AI will mess all up. The good thing about being millennials is that we are in between, we still understand the past and we lived the beginning of the future, technology an so on, so we also connect with new generations. I do not agree the way this podcast ends up making money the centre of life, but is a reality that we need to have enough to not have to worry, and that is something Millennials have struggled from the start.

The Calvary is not coming. The next president, whoever he/she is, is not our messiah. Politics is not the new religion, and the Calvary is not coming.

Both men are advocating for time. Friendships, community, and relationships require time and presence. However, most jobs are hourly workers which require both time and presence to be paid, which limits people’s time to be present for community events, loving others, and friendships. Paying more is one solution that could allow for more time and presence.

I enjoyed this conversation but I found it frustrating at times. I think Scott completely missed Simon's point at 58:40 (people are pushing so hard to make their number [nevermind that everyone's number is going to be different...in Scott's case it was 9 figures, in my case, 7 figures] that it's at the cost of each other). I have absolutely seen people justify atrocious behavior under the assumption that after hitting some sort of milestones, they would be done. Simon's example of justifying laying people off to hit a number is salient at the moment and it absolutely blew my mind that Scott dismissed that as "not true" when less than ten minutes ago at 53:15 he talks about how on his journey to making 9 figures, he saw people in terms of two bubbles: how much money they made, and how much money they were adding, and if what they made was larger he'd fire them. This is exactly what Simon was talking about. A dehumanizing approach to "ruthless capitalism" as Scott puts it. And that's what got him to 9 figures. It's easy to be generous when you have that much excess. It's another thing entirely when you don't and manage to grow a business, while simultaneously treating people right. It's just very clear that Scott wasn't really listening or reflecting on what was being said.

The month I graduated college I enlisted in the military. Neighbors thought I had thrown my life away. It was the best thing I ever did. My sons will likely join as well as I will guide them that direction. If the wealthy don’t serve, our country will lose it’s soul.

So, the experiment was ran. Voters failed miserably. Look at the nominees. There were choices. We are, in fact, too stupid to vote our way to a better future.

That's an idea that is also being proposed by JD Vance and also Project 2025. It's unworkable and (appears to be) unconstitutional but it's supposed to be a provocative nudge to suggest people in the US should have more children (as distinct to e.g. increasing the tax allowance for children). Anyway it's unworkable: what about an undocumented parent of three US-citizen children: would they be able to vote three times for their children, but not for themselves (in federal elections)? Or zero times, since it's illegal for the parent to vote in federal elections?

@@OlgaSunny-pl2sg I think you would be surprised to hear how many people with 9 figures pay for close friends/family to travel. It's pretty common and not something that really surprises me given what I've seen wealthy people do. I know people with 6 figure net worths - not even millionaire status - that take their families or friends on vacation. As for his net worth remaining flat for 7 years - it doesn't need to grow to be considered "hoarding." If Elon Musk's net worth didn't grow for the remainder of his life, would we really consider his multi-billion dollar status an example of an individual that wasn't hoarding? As for the reasons behind his firings - he laid it out pretty clearly himself. He said that if a person cost more than what they brought in for long enough, he would fire them. That's the approach and mentality that got him to 9 figures - not giving a fuck about people on the journey - and it's EXTREMELY convenient that now that he has 9 figures, he's willing to be generous - just so long as his 9 figure net worth remains flat. I'll admit I'm being a little uncharitable, but I think it's because I'm looking at Scott through his own worldview. He is literally the top .1%.

I live in the Midwest. Our cities, states, neighborhoods, etc. have experienced severe weather this year (hail, thunderstorms, flooding, tornadoes, etc.) People have lost houses, loved ones, pets, their entire lives. Whenever one of these severe weather events impacts us, we mobilize and prepare to assist in any way that we can. I think this can be a solution to the current issues impacting our communities and our country. We need to convince ourselves, our leaders, our politicians, and our civil servants that this is a severe weather event. We need to mobilize and prepare our troops to assist in any way that we can. We need to swallow our pride, roll up our sleeves, and prepare to sacrifice for our neighbors. Drastic changes can be made if we convince ourselves that this is reasonable, possible, and necessary. No one will willingly give the government more tax dollars, but they will gladly help their neighbors. Let's start there.

This talk centered around the complete death of any sort of American culture. The vast majority of social conduct, morality, and standards have completely been destroyed. What happened with the baby boomers is they grew up in a culture that had a firm grasp on what was acceptable. As a result they decided to break these social standards to live better lives. The problem is that in subsequent generations they became stuck on lower levels of thought, which results in short term self oriented people. Social regulations and its rules allow people to be able to predict what other people will do, and as a result people operate on higher levels of thought, that which is concerned with the future and other people. Its like racing where the highest performers will momentarily and with control go past the limits of the race car, which allows them to go faster. However, this requires the driver to be acutely aware of the limits of the race car. To break the rules, you first must understand and have mastered the rules. If America wants to truly thrive again, cultural development has to occur. A shared cultural identity, of which requires people to adhere to the groups standards, regulations, and morality. Anything significant western civilization has accomplish was as an attempt to live up to the image of God. I find it hard to see people returning to religion, however I believe all the cultural deficiencies' are as a result of declining religiosity. The human mind in my understanding was designed, or functions best within a religious framework. Religion lays out path for how people should live their lives, what is moral, multiple thousands of years of wisdom and teachings.
