Boomers had every single opportunity to be rich - so what are the "boomer opportunities today"?
I often hear the younger generation says "the boomers had it easy. You can pick up a job, support a family and easily buy a house with low prices" Now the market is a lot more difficult We need degrees, large down payments etc to have the same lifestyle as before Instead of whining about it, the real question is - what are the boomer type easy opportunities today? If we look back 40 years from now, what are some obvious opportunities we cannot miss? Now - answering this question is not so easy, is it? Because we don't have the same hindsight as we attribute to boomers. But here are my best guesses: 1. Bitcoin - Limited in supply. The anti-government money 2. Semiconductor - The next 10 years of AI race will be based on chips and power 3. Solar / Nuclear power - To fully support the AI race, oil and coal wouldn't be enough. We need solar or nuclear power. 4. SpaceX type company - SpaceX is going IPO soon with a crazy valuation. Likely a ploy for insiders to dump shares at insane prices. But reusable rocket type companies will be the driver of next frontier innovation 5. Robotics / drone - Mostly China developed robots where it would automate manufacturing significant. What do you think?

I like what Cathy Wood has to say on the subject. (AI google result: ark cathy wood's suggestions for young people to achieve success Cathie Wood, founder and CEO of ARK Invest, advocates for a forward-thinking, high-conviction approach to career and financial success, particularly emphasizing the adoption of disruptive technologies like AI. Her advice for young people centers on embracing innovation, continuous upskilling, and cultivating a proactive mindset in a rapidly changing world. Career & Personal Development Suggestions - Upskill in AI Immediately: Wood emphasizes that AI is disrupting entry-level jobs and urges young people to learn AI tools and concepts to stay competitive, as artificial intelligence is reshaping the workforce. - "Make Your Boss Look Brilliant": To secure growth opportunities, she advises young professionals to work hard, keep their heads down, and help their bosses succeed, noting this creates a "virtuous cycle". - Don't Fear Job-Hopping for Growth: If a company does not provide opportunities for advancement, she suggests looking for a new position rather than staying in a stagnant role. - Cultivate Curiosity and Proactivity: Wood advises young people to "go for it" by starting businesses, using their unique gifts, and acting with intention, rather than waiting for opportunities to appear. - Collaborate and Build Networks: She emphasizes that teamwork and networking are crucial, advising to "give" of your time and energy to receive help in return. Investment and Financial Strategies - Focus on Disruptive Innovation: Wood urges investors to focus on technologies that are lowering costs and transforming industries, such as AI, robotics, genomics, blockchain, and energy storage. - Take Long-Term Risks: Younger investors should consider taking on higher risk than broad-based benchmarks to invest in innovation-focused strategies. - "Buy the Dip": Rather than chasing market momentum, she advises buying into innovative strategies during market downturns. - Maintain a Long-Term Perspective: She advocates for a minimum 7-year investment horizon to allow disruptive technologies to scale.
