Business 101.

Most people are not useful and can’t figure these things out. But the point here is if you work in an industry you know inside out and all of a sudden disruptive tech comes and makes roles you know how to do and how work obsolete, you’ll likely see it coming and have a chance to take advantage.

Example:

My brother in law’s brother is a truck driver who made $90k+ for years. He saw the semi truck coming way ahead, borrowed to buy one and will be a first in Canada to own one which will instantly be a cash flowed for him. He can lease it or use it and be an independent trucker. Then later when autonomy is here he will have 1-2 trucks and be able to play. There’s a supply drought and anyone with the asset will make $.

If you climb poles for a living you’re unlikely very enterprising, but the small % that are will go and get theirs.
