A question marked Urgent perplexes me. A millennial wants advice if he should opt for a car loan and invest his money in mutual funds to earn higher returns. It takes tough questions and hard calculations to make him see sense. I question his assumptions of the future.
The session leaves me with more questions than answers. Owning that red convertible is an obsession with him. All other goals for the future are blurred.
I visualize him driving into the metaverse in his dream car. It’s a world out there I can’t fathom, with my feet on slippery sands.

The future is not ours to see. It’s difficult enough understanding the now. Their future is very different from ours. In fact, our now is different from the future I would have imagined.
