<<Anyway, tell your little darlings to start saving flat out or start preparing to work for a lifetime for global pay rates, which will be lower than current USA salaries.>>

In that case, the little darlings better start learning Mandarin if they want a job and decent income in 2050. China won't want to hire illiterate barbarians who can only speak an American dialect. [The Boomers are heading for the scrap-heap - ignore them].

People in India and Hong Kong learned English to get the money, not because they thought English was an amazing improvement over Hindi and Cantonese. Americans will be the same [our son learned Japanese with an eye to the future - the Japanese have the money and to get it, fluency in the language is a necessary ability].
