Presumably you are referring to work here, as the worth of anything you do in your personal life should be quite evident.

You can find rewarding work.

Seems like a big assumption. I haven't yet, and I keep trying.

And that there's a place for everyone in the current economic model.

I know from experience that I'm happiest doing 2-3 part time jobs. But in order to get things like benefits, job security, a salary over 15/hr, etc. I'm stuck with a single place of full time employment. I try to find jobs that let me do a bunch of different things, but it's not really the same.

Being a generalist sucks.

Being a generalist can work if you are in the right market[s] and you own your own business[es].
