    About :

    A few weeks ago, somewhere in the comment section of Hive, I had a debate with someone (I forgot with whom, but it's irrelevant) about the quality of living a 30-40 year ago and now... And when I say now, I don't think at this specific moment when we are living like prisoners, I'm thinking about the time BEFORE this craziness...

    As a matter of fact, it could be a case that I had that debate before all this because at this moments, there is barely any argument that can be positive today in comparison with before... but... let's imagine that it is "normal" at the moment... not "new normal", but really normal...

    Yesterday, I was talking with my wife about this same topic, differences between before and now... And I have mentioned an interesting thing about the days when my parents were young, in their 20es... My father went to Germany to work in the late '70 and worked there for around 2 years... He worked normal working hours, as it is today (who is lucky, or unlucky, to have a job) 8 hours per day... He was partying with his working colleagues, having just ordinary life... He wasn't a doctor, politician, or anything "out of the league", just an ordinary worker like millions of others...

    After 2 years of working, he comes back to his home country and bought a house for his parents, and another one for his family... What?? Yes, you heard it well... Worked 2 years, and saved enough to buy TWO houses with CASH! No loans, no mortgage, no shit... Can you do this today?

    Okay, there are other things in life... But, somehow, I don't see that he had a lack of something... Social security, free healthcare, no long queues, and lists in hospitals, decent life for people in retirement...
    Oh, yes... They had fewer viruses, attacks from hornets and alligators that wanted to kill them all the time... lol

    ...and I didn't even mention the present moment at all... check out the video...

    Thank you for your valuable time,
