Ever notice it’s way cheaper to buy an AC than to fix one? 😲
Tech makes stuff cheap (thanks, Jevons 📉), but labor still isn't getting automated (hello, Baumol 💰).
The weirder our tech gets, the pricier human work becomes. 🤖➡️👷♂️🔥

👋 That’s your disruptor bogey. Bet smart = surf early or get bashed up later.
🚀 Lean in before your users bolt for something better.
