Why Remote Work is the next Operating Sytems for Capitalism

Remote work means the unbundling of city life

To understand ‘why now?’ it’s not enough to reflect on the historical precedent of what’s occurred previously. You need to inject modern technology and analyze what’s possible now that wasn’t before.

To continue doing anything because it is the way things have always been done is insane.

That feels like office work and city living today

Cities are broken

High wages only subsidize the cost of living. Once you detach yourself from salary and understand that quality of life is affected most by your disposable income after all expenses have been deducted it becomes necessary to question why you are in a city in the first place?

Egotistically, people are driven to measure their self-worth by the number on the top line, not on the bottom line. This is shortsighted and it causes us to sacrifice happiness in search of more money. When the gratification that a few thousand more is supplanted by the expense of city living we should be asking more questions. Today, on average, each of us sacrifices 25 days a year to commute to a place that is no better suited for work than our home.
