There's an effect.
I don't know if you've come across this.
I think Derek Thompson wrote about it.
I was at Atlantic.
That's where I saw it for the first time.
The I'm doing fine, but everyone else is fucked effect.
Have you come across this?
I think it's like 80% of people think, like Seth described in the United States as, I'm doing okay, but I think like 80% of the people around me don't.
And like, that can't be true.
Like, so...
how has our perspective so skewed?
There's some countries where it's like 90%, like South Korea.
90%?
90% of people think.
But I think it's not as many people are doing... Some people are doing poorly, 100%, but it's not 80% of everyone else.
This is the thing.
It's like there's fewer... In fact, in a lot of ways, it depends on how you look at things.
Again, I don't know.
It's just like the richest person on planet Earth 100 years ago could not have had a cell phone.
In fact, there's a lot of things they couldn't have had.
