After reading Susan Phillips' "Select Leaders" posting about Millennials staying at home with parents to live, I got to thinking about the very subject she mentions here.
Jobs.
Since I have been self-employed for so long, it would take a miracle for me to go back to work for anyone else.
But, as she states, I work in an industry that is (supposedly) growing. In the past year, I've gone from working large CRE deals to very, very small. (You take what you get, I suppose.)
The fortunate part for me is that I have a very low overhead and with my business so slow, I am still able to maintain myself with a huge help from my spouse. (Her industry is booming in Las Vegas.)
Anyway, with extended family having moved in to our household, this scenario covers the majority of Americans who have lost employment over the years and were replaced by automation.
It is an interesting read -- if only to me and my family situation.
Enjoy.
