MSP325. Rung Out_Repairing The Career Ladder

Cool don’t pay the bills. Unless you’re Richard Bradbury and Matt Armitage. After slapping themselves on the back for tapping into a Gen X zeitgeist trend – a level of self-satisfaction that only two Gen X males would consider socially acceptable – the pair looks at a recent LinkedIn report that exposes the risks that AI poses to young graduates and the entry level positions they depend on.

What lessons are there for Gen Z in the midlife career meltdowns of the slacker generation? And how do you achieve financial security, wealth accumulation, stability, mobility and health in a world without solid foundations?

And why should anyone take the word of two old geezers who congratulate themselves for successfully scanning a QR code?
