“First and foremost, in this new 21st century economy, if you want to stay employed you have to seek out a field that is ascending, rather than declining. Here’s just one example out of hundreds: tax preparers. There are numerous tax preparation services, some with offices in large retail stores and others with offices in strip malls. But tax preparation services have a problem. With the ascendancy of the internet, web-based tax preparation software is ascending, while traditional tax preparation services are declining. The point is that you don’t want to be automated out of your job and you don’t want your field of interest to quickly become obsolete.”
