You put a culture in the petri dish and the culture grows really fast and you go, wow, look at all the growth.
But eventually it gets to the edge of the petri dish and it stops growing.
And that's what's going to happen to us.
And I didn't think of the comeback live at the time, but I've got the comeback now, which is, yes, it's a petri dish, but the world is a magic petri dish in two ways.
First of all, it's really big.
Our petri dish, it's just much bigger than we think.
More than half of the world's economic activity happens on way less than 1% of its surface.
And the second one is our petri dish is magic because it grows over time.
It grows about 1% to 2% per year.
And compounded out, that means that petri dish is not only huge, but the edge keeps expanding.
And now I can't say that's going to go forever.
Of course, nothing can go forever.
But what we can pretty confidently say is it will go long enough to allow all of our citizens on planet Earth to get to high levels of prosperity.
And that's something we should take as an agreed goal in my view.
By the way, investors, funnily enough, in our book, the most unlikely superhero emerges because you'll never see Megacorp being the hero in the Hollywood movie.
But if there's a hero in our book, funnily enough, it is actually the large modern firm.
It's where all the R&D happened.
It's where the investment happened.
It's where the wages are the highest.
It's where the human capital happens.
