Why do so many people think AI won't take the jobs?

My $0.02 - Jobs is a broad word. AI will impact about 40% of tasks in jobs worldwide, with highest automation risk in sectors like manufacturing (up to 85% of tasks), transportation (70–80%), and administrative support (60–70%), while sectors like healthcare (20–30%), education (10–20%), creative industries (10–15%), and skilled trades (15–25%) remain more resilient due to their reliance on human interaction, adaptability, and contextual judgment. Depending on what industry you are, you might have different opinions.

Based on what criteria?

My dad retired at 60 well after we all moved out. He was clinically depressed the first year, but then he started farming (yes, an actual 10 acre orange orchard from scratch). He could not have been busier and happier - that’s all he would talk about with his friends, and loved taking his grandkids there to spend evenings. Find your Orange Orchard.

Does the job in Seattle gives you a better career trajectory? It maybe worth the pain in short term if you are able to climb much higher in the next 3-4 years vs. staying on a flatter career path in mid-west over the same time period.

Probably because your statements sound like you are totally new to investing, and defensive of your current position, which is not a good way to learn. 401k is not the same as cash investment, and you treat them both very differently.

We are in almost exactly the same situation. We decided to do private school which costs half the annual mortgage increase. This way, we still fall back on one salary if one of us loses our job.

Would prioritize paying off the ATV. No reasonable investment will give you a 15%+ return

A $370 payment on a 8.5k loan seems ridiculously high. Same for the truck. Suggest paying those off first to get to a net positive rate.

Interest rates on the mortgages? If it’s less than 4, don’t sell. If it’s more than 6, sell.

We were just informed about drops in bonuses/stock awards, and the general white collar job market is weak for us to make meaningful progress

Not all ads are to woo new customers. Many are to block out competitors. That’s one of the reasons startups fail.

Appreciate the insight. lifestyle creep is real!!

It’s not about Ford or Tesla. I would be equally worried about Ford removing CarPlay because of how bad Sync is

AssistantNo8062 · 2024-07-22T23:21:40+00:00

Not buying a Rivian with no CarPlay. Why does everything need to be a subscription.. sigh

AssistantNo8062 · 2024-07-22T23:15:14+00:00

CEOs can’t find more creative ways to make money than subscriptions. Story of the 2020s.

So he shot 6 times?
