Comments

Late 90’s, old tech or dotcom everyone had a daytrading platform up on their desktop. Never went to lunch, always watching that histogram.

Officemate then, like many of the 50-somethings now, got laid off a decade back and works tools desk at Home Depot.

Like Michael Lewis said. Every time he speaks at Universities they don’t ask sobering questions about the lessons of past. They ask what is the next big thing.
