For sure we are witnessing quantity over quality issues, but that is not new, it's been happening a long time. Or.... We are getting old and "They don't make them like they used to" is in play. And I assure you that my grandkids would accuse me of that attitude. `,~)

I am not known for mincing words. Not trying to be an asshole, but not going to sugar coat it just to nice on the list.

If that is the attitude of your grandkids, you have raised some terrible kids/grandkids. 

The idea that money justifies bad information is wrong. Things are either true or false. The end doesn't justify the means.   

Go though major medical issues (cancer/stroke as example) and you find important things beyond money or career. 

Thank you,
