> I'm in my late 40s. I'm Gen X. I lived through the glory days of the dotcom boom, when investors got burned for tons of money. But from the ashes of those bullshit companies, we got Amazon, Google, etc., which made investors rich beyond belief.

"Investors" writ large will likely continue to have good long term returns (with occasionally significant short term volatility).
