Christine Lagarde digital euro age debate

    por Gigliola: Christine Lagarde

    The digital euro for banks just went live under Christine Lagarde, who is 70. So here's the question floating around: should money for the next century be shaped by whoever has logged the most years, or by whoever actually lives closest to the tech? One take in the chat: we need an age cap. The argument goes that staying inside a system too long warps how you think, so independent judgment quietly dies. Football players age out for the same reason, and cognition follows. Still, that's a wild thing to say about the most experienced people on the planet. The whole thing is really about who gets a seat when the rules for generations get written

    We need an age cap for a lot of this shit. Well, she's probably not even that old. Let's see how old she is. She's got to be 60 plus. Dang, she's 70. Yeah. That's too old. She's taking care of herself. Yeah, she looks great. That's not what I mean. But like, how are you making decisions for the next 100 years when, unless things dramatically change, you won't be here for most of them? Am I wishing that 70 years old? You're on the second half. You're on the second half. I hope it's a very long second half, but I mean, like, don't you think that people closer to the tech and who are going to have to live with this more should be involved? I'm sure they are, but like, I don't know. There's so much of that. Everyone's so old. That sounds ageist for one. And Ben, don't you think it makes sense that the people who have the most experience on the planet help guide the decisions? I don't think that at all because there's paradigm shifting changes. And I also think the longer you've been in there, the more you've been manipulated. You can't free think anymore when you're in that system for so long. You just think that's reality. So I strongly disagree. so you don't respect your elders i respect the shit of my elders but i wouldn't want to give certain jobs it's like okay okay like there's a reason why you retire from the game of football the younger kids better than you right you there's you age out of this stuff and cognitively it happens as well you've got a far longer runway but eventually it does if you enjoyed this be sure to hit that like button and follow to stay up to date with what's going on in the world and everything else memes and markets peace
