The world is a very rapidly changing place

The momentum of the changes in the world is mind-staggering to me. I have sent this link to my children and told them to take this into consideration in raising my grandchildren. A majority of the jobs that children should be preparing for the future don't even exist today. China will soon be the largest English speaking population in the world. The status-quo is disappearing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cL9Wu2kWwSY We will be eclipsed by the rest of the world in technology and achievement unless we learn to adapt to the ever-changing environment. Those who believe that they can just grow up and do what their parents did, and save and invest and that the world will reward them are mistaken. Success in the future and financial prosperity will go to those who have a keener sense of how to use the changes in the world-to-come, to their own benefit.
