I can recall with horrific clarity the moment I turned my back on wealth, arrogantly and ignorantly. I was ironing in my bedroom and watching the business news and CW came in. I think he was in jr high, just discovering the scope of computers, and he said, "Mom, you need to buy this Microsoft stock." ANd I laughed - yes- I LAUGHED-and said, oh right.
And he said, "Well, then , buy this new stock, Netscape. Trust me, Mom, the Internet is the future."
"What's an internet?"
ANd I bought Benihana. ANd Helen of Troy.
So I think we probably should ask our children--- not CW or Ammo- no- they are TOO OLD. They no longer have the edge--- they are over the tech hill. We need some 10 and 12 year olds. And we need to listen. |
