They took it to the extreme because they never had any obstacles to face outside of the suburbs. This generation is hopefully learning to value other things. Social and environmental awareness, giving and collaborating and communicating--these are the things this generation is capable of. Providing value through relationships rather than money. As for Chipotle...you have amazing tolerance for the shittiest foods. The Greatest Generation was mostly dirt poor as kids, so naturally they taught their Baby Booming kids the value of money.

With outsourcing and technology erasing the demand for knowledge workers (left brain) here in the US, and with information becoming available to anyone...people are going to need to develop and use innovation and imagination (right brain) to get ahead. The innovators and creators will benefit big time in the future. Just finished “A Whole New Mind” by Daniel Pink, which this post reminded me of to some extent.
