I’ve caught myself feeling a little concerned about where the economy is heading with all the changes in jobs, AI, housing, and cost of living. When you look five years out, do you think things will feel more stable, more strained, or just very different from what we expect today?

Boy, that's the big question, isn't it? I don't feel terribly optimist about the big picture. It seems like the economy is pretty shaky. I think a lot of the excitement around AI is mostly hype, but it's still going to disrupt things in some bad ways. And there's a chance that we could go into some really dark economic times. And I haven't even gotten to the idea that we could bumble our way into a major war.

Strained. With implementation of AI the economy is going to be way different.

I think of it as restructuring. What we see as success or profitable will change. Instead of seeing owning a home as the American Dream, it will instead change to dreaming of not living in a cardboard box. I think more multigenerational families will live under one roof. I think people will own less.. everything will be rented or community property. It’s the direction they had planned for. Remember the 15 minute cities.. it’s all a push for that.

2012 Sr Associate. Left my firm in February after being recruited by a partner I used to work for, and it turns out I’m not very happy. Difficult people, terrible schedule and ruined vacations so far. A partner at my old firm in another group has asked if I would come back to work for just him. I liked working for him, we have great rapport and I could do permanent WFH since he is in another city. I don’t want to burn bridges, would this be a bad idea? Or an easy decision?
