It's a completely different world when money can be conjured out of thin air. Paper wealth is dead on. So is paper happiness. Too many people going through life with their nose buried in a screen versus spending time with those they love, out in the world, exploring as it was meant to be.
Everything is digital and that comes at a cost as well.
Like I said here:
"A few decades ago it was a race to Mars, now it seems to be a race to who can buy the most gadgets and get the most subscriptions to keep people planted on the couch.
More and more science and math fields are more focused on saying the right things and meeting quotas as opposed to actually pushing innovation forward.
Technology has been a big step forward, but to me we've also taken massive steps back as a result, as well."
