Nothing so drastic. I'm saying that if I had to be 30 and rich 20 years ago or 30 and poor today, I'd pick the latter.

Some days I feel like I've won the 'history lottery'. Right age at the right time in the right country.

I'm not certain I would choose the same thing twenty years from now. I think the essential reason why I would make that choice today isn't going to be all that much more compelling in the future, meaning the money is going to play a bigger role.

All-in-all, I think we vastly underestimate what the Internet has done for us. Like by a factor of millions.
