Last night I was watching the news (a terrible habit I need to get rid of!) and there was another story about how bad the economy is and how hard it is to find a job. I always have the same reaction when people say they are looking for a job. It makes me wonder, “Who wants a job?”
Having a job for decades and retiring on a pension was a system that ended in the 1980’s. Since then, the economy has changed so rapidly that working in the same job for 20 years is nearly impossible. Besides that, the financial mismanagement of companies and the government has made pensions and social security unreliable.
So what’s the solution?

We’re pretty impressed with Automated Trading. As a concept, it makes sense, especially for the busy, self-directed investor.
- You have the return power of active trading.
- You don’t have the greed and fear of active traders (if programmed correctly).
- You don’t have the fees and other payment hijinx of mutual funds.
- And you don’t have all the time spent researching the market and waiting to make trades.
So, throw all your money into Automated Trading. Forget about the index funds and long-term investments.

I wrote a post yesterday on the failure of wealth redistribution. Money ends up finding it’s way to the same hands.
But, wealth-building technology has a much better chance of succeeding if it finds its way to regular investors. We have reason to hope this will happen. With the amazing computing power available, it’s just a matter of time before the types of technology that drive hedge funds and private equity funds is available to self-directed investors.
Where’s the source of our optimism?
It relies a lot on our own experimentation, but the bulk of this expectation lies in the path of technological process and Moore’s law. It’s something we’ll explore in depth in our forthcoming eBook, the Wealth Singularity, but here’s an overview.

is one of my favorite financial books of all time. It's an allegory about a guy who has a terrible job, and how he overcomes challenges to achieve his dreams.
