RE: 3-D Printing Of Homes Rapidly Expanding

Again, sort of off topic but sales as an employment opportunity is pretty much dead now.

I spent the better part of 30 years in sales. About 5 years ago I realized it was a dying industry. More is going online and not requiring salespeople.

As for the dealership, I am surprised it happened that quickly. The EV revolution is still in its infancy and Tesla still makes up a small percentage. However, with the rate that car sales are down, perhaps some are already feeling the pinch.

We will see how things progress. One thing I do know, the youth of today is not as excited to get a driver's license as we were when I was a teen. Could this be starting to have an impact? I dont know.

Finally, general purpose robots, like to clean a room, remain elusive. That is probably a safe profession for a while.

Dude, I couldn’t agree more. My niece has s in her 20s now, with a full time job and doesn’t drive. I understand her situation allows for foot travel and public transit, but still, a driver’s license used to mean freedom and now it seems like a chore.

Same with my would be step daughter and most of her friends. They could care less.

I attribute that to tech also, though.

As a teen I needed a license to get out of my country home and into the local pool hall or game room. Nintendo held me over through puberty but by 15, well, you remember 15…

They can go anywhere or do anything they want to do from wherever they are. A car is an expense that compounds expenses.

Regarding the dealership, I’ll reiterate it’s the biggest one in a small town, almost oversized to be honest.

This was likely a case of overextension just before covid hit and people stopped buying.

It’s also owned by one of the biggest names in town that owns everything else, so it’s possible they’re smart enough to see something coming and are reorganizing in prep for the storm.
