I think its generational. I even see the generational differences across my office. when meeting with our customers for formal meetings, the 35+ engineers are in a suit, or at least a blazer. The 20 somethings are wearing torn jeans and burkenstocks

I went to a restaurant recently that asked me to pay my bill with the QR code on the tablet. Scanned it, and the first thing it did was ask for my phone number to verify my "account" by sending me a code.

The server didn't understand that I wasn't going to do that, and they needed to run my credit card like normal or I wasn't paying.

People that work in classified environments. You can't have smart devices (phones, watches, anything that communicates with the outside) while in these controlled spaces. pagers are acceptable because they're 1 way communication, so there's no risk of data leaks from the classified space

their trades are public

Up to 45 days after the trade is made.

While not technically insider trading because they don't work for the companies they're trading, they definitely have access to privileged macro economic knowledge

The problem is, you used to be able to comfortably live that life. Now if you stay at the same company, your wages won't increase at a rate to sustain your life style. Companies care way more about acquiring talent than retaining talent, so you need to move around to make enough money
