Summary
- Sustainable wealth is created from the provision of products and services that yield a sustainable social benefit.
- All new industrial eras are built on the technologies of a past generation before the second window of intra-cycle of opportunity opens.
- The inertia of existing incumbents, their employees, and entrenched ways of doing things slow the path to profit for successful new entrants by up to 25 years.
- Old wealth ultimately gives way to new gatekeepers to wealth that are adaptable to fulfilling evolving social needs – this is a recurring feature of cpitalism.
