And then we invented digital. We invented two things. We invented finance and digital technology.
And with those two inventions, we just completely have crashed the industrial revolution system. And we have a new system that's in ascension, which is the digital system. And what's now happening is that you have people like myself who have digital businesses and living the best life ever. I can live and work from anywhere. I've got technology. I can run a pretty fun and affluent life.

So the industrial revolution system, the moment that we are in time right now is the industrial revolution system is in decline and the digital revolution is in ascension. And some people or a lot of people, 80, 90% of people are on this downward spiral and a small group of people are on this upward spiral. And we're just living through a time of transition.

This is not the first time this happened. In the late 1700s, we invented the steam engines in the UK, right? Silicon Valley of 1700s was York. So we invented steam engines and we invented pumps and we invented tractors and plows and all this sort of stuff. and factories, and we created the factory production method.

And there was this time of about 50 years from the late 1700s to the early 1800s where huge numbers of people were displaced from their jobs. Charles Dickens writes about kids on the streets, Oliver Twist, there's the tale of two cities, revolutions, French Revolution comes along. So essentially this industrial technology developed
