As advice goes.................................

............................this is pretty good:


My best advice to you is this: learn, grow, be flexible, and be willing to work in ways that you never imagined.  The clock will not be turned back on technology, which is the main factor affecting employment.  You must be your own defender, because the factors affecting employment are bigger than that which governments can control.  Finally, as an aside, don’t trust the politicians (from any party) who say they will improve your economic prospects.  Aside from reducing what the government does, they haven’t succeeded in the past; they will not succeed in the present.
