If there is one thing that worries me more than my country’s public debt, it is the people.

Especially the boomers. Not everybody, but most of them.

We are talking about people who lived in the full economic boom, in the most advanced countries, in the 60s; people found by chance, in circumstances that allowed them to have a peaceful, carefree, light, normal life, especially in their adolescence, and who for many years, perhaps even today, have held roles that are also prestigious, high-paid and that they did not deserve, in quite easy way.

In short, people who not only cannot understand, empathize and really help today’s young people, but unawares, do nothing but worsen their existence, with bad financial advice and their phobia of everything.

People who cannot understand that they have been victims of a pre-assembled system designed for very specific purposes.

They do not succeed because, in my opinion, over time, the system seems to have anesthetized their irrational part, that is, the one that distinguishes us from machines, animals and / or stones. That part that makes us human, alive, present.

There is little to smile today. For too long, a few questionable people have been allowed to lead the world to the brink of extinction.

Do I look catastrophic? Then perhaps it is the present that is catastrophic. Because I’m just a realist.

Today being young means being martyrs.

Perpetually judged, belittled, discredited, targeted by the system and by the adults who still believe in it.

Being young today means choosing whether not to have a life for pennies or to give up having a life, to follow the dream of a better future, one that is worthy, that is free, a risk that could never be successfully faced.

In the middle there are zombies. Or machines. I think it makes little difference.

Whenever an adult tries to persuade a young person from taking risks, of any kind, in the economic field, to find a job, for example, he unwittingly approaches the death sentence. Death of freedom, death of wealth.

Stop thinking that wealth is a mystery of faith, lawlessness or luck.

It is a status that anyone can work on to deserve it, in an ethical way.

So, if you're an adult, try to ask yourself questions you've never asked yourself.

Try learning from people who have a different status than yours.

And stop being fooled by those who still talk to you in a utopian way about work on television.

And above all, please.

Do not spread fear of any kind to your sons.
They will hate you for it and stop taking you as a guide.

Rather, encourage them, support them, and be amazed by what will happen next thanks simply to this.

If you are young, however, do not give up.

Keep studying, working on your flaws and weaknesses, keep evolving and giving your best every day.

Keep moving in the direction of your dreams.

Stop giving credit to those who say you have no choice, to those who say you can't do it because you are missing something or because you are young and therefore you are stupid, ignorant and incapable.

Stop listening to people who do nothing but Boolean thinking, like a computer. Either 0 or 1. Stop. Dare to say fuck it! There is also 0.28!

You can do it. Whether you are an adult or a young person.
You are a human being, a being beyond the ordinary, capable of great things.

Others will easily be replaced by masters who do not see and artificial intelligence they ignore.

Hold on.

Fight.

Stay human.
