The Next Ten Years...

Few of us are thinking of the next TEN years.

It’s hard not to get excited and short term distracted with Twitter, Groupon and Facebook adding billions in value as private companies in just a few years. They did this amidst a financial collapse and repapering.

All I need/want are healthy kids, a cure for cancer a personal chef and better man grooming products so my goals are narrowing. It’s therefore getting easier to think long-term.

I think the Next Ten years will be sillier, faster, smarter, dumber and more dangerous than the last. I don’t think you can shrink global volatility so fast. I think the swings will just get wilder between boom and bust before we have no choice but to slow down.

I liked this article from David Pogue on ‘The Last Ten Years‘. I also like Michael Vassar’s post on the next ten years.

I am going to put together some Stocktwits interviews with my favorite brains forcing them to think about the next TEN years with me before years end as well. Who would you like me to talk to for us?

Let’s get thinking bigger and longer term together.
