Much better: <Do you think your sons and daughter will have as good as you had once they reach your age?> Earlier in my life, I thought I had struck the jackpot of life as the past was a litany of wars, depressions, subsistence agricultural lifestyle, short life expectancy and all sorts of harsh realities. But over the last few decades, I realize that my life has been just a bit better than those who went before, whereas my descendants are enjoying the phenomenal bargain basement luxury lifestyle of mobile Cyberspace, cars costing almost nothing, A380s flying around the world with just one stop en route, costing only NZ$2500, food of all sorts and costing little [exceptions such as wild crayfish, schnapper etc], medical treatment of amazing quality [3D imaging, DNA analysis, genetic engineering, and blood tests costing nearly nothing].

There is no apparent upper bound to how amazingly great things can become.

And after that generation, the grandchildren will have an even more amazing life.

Of course they have to choose to be happy. There's a paradoxical misery for many people amidst splendour as though they want to be unhappy.
