Given the rapid growth of the AI industry and the potential risk of job displacement within the next 7-10 years, it is crucial for us to proactively identify and prepare for alternative career paths. By doing so, we can ensure financial stability and career security in a rapidly changing employment landscape. The question we must ask ourselves is: which secondary skills or jobs should we start developing now to stay ahead of the curve and secure our future?
I appreciate your thoughts.

I think any profession that requires human interaction and EQ should be safer from AI. I would say the trades, but I think they are going to get crowded and work will be harder to come by. I think eventually AI and robotics will take most jobs and we’ll have to resort to some kind of universal income. I could see where possibly the government has a percentage ownership in corporations and the dividends collected are distributed for services and universal income. It probably won’t be the most efficient or ideal, but I really don’t see much of another outcome since with AI we won’t need as many jobs as there are people.

I think about this a lot and I've actually been thinking about going back for a trade. Maybe an electrician or mechanic. I don't necessarily want to do those things, but it feels like my job is going to not exist in a decade or so and I will still have bills in a decade…

The trades are always where it's going to be at. Not some "cushy" office job. The trades.

That is an excellent question and one I’m finding hard to conclude. Right now, I am trying to take AI courses and get on the inside of all these jobs changing due to it.

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.

My partner got a City of Toronto offer. Salary band is 104-121k. HR asked for his expectations and he said 115k. HR came back with a 106k offer stating nobody on the team makes that much so they cant offer it. Also said she is unsure if there is any wiggle room if any at all. I’ve looked at everyone on the team with the same titles salary on the sunshine list and the lowest I see is 121k. I assume there is an OT component of some sort but also can’t confirm.
