Todd Hayen “You’ll own nothing, and be happy.” Ha ha. I wonder if Schwab regrets saying that. Actually the phrase originated in 2016 from Danish MP Ida Auken’s essay “Welcome to 2030: I Own Nothing, Have No Privacy, and Life has Never Been Better” written for the World Economic Forum.

Todd Hayen So working at home is a dream come true, eh? I’ll bet. What fun! A permanent snow day for all! Stay in your PJs all day, go at your own pace, play a few vid games here and there, take a nap once in a while, raid the fridge, have a beer. (Unless …
Todd Hayen Remember the ugly prank taping a sheet of paper on a nerd’s back (or on the back of some other vulnerable innocent) that said KICK ME? Maybe you are from a generation where teenagers didn’t do such things. I never liked the idea because I was of the type that would get such …

Todd Hayen Do any of you think we are over-reacting? I don’t think so, but the sheep-folk certainly do. They claim they are willing to let bygones be bygones and just put it all in the past and get on with life. I am sure everyone reading this is aware of the bombshell editorial The …
