From Boomers to Millennials, the largest intergenerational wealth transfer in history — $50 trillion — is underway and the ramifications will remake the world. The dirty money and greed of “business as usual” is on the brink, wedged between catastrophic climate change and the demographic tidal wave of Millennials pounding the consumer table for real change. These forces are transforming the very nature of capitalism into something different and powerful, towards a clean money revolution.
Changing the money game is invaluable to social movements like Black Lives Matter, #MeToo, First Nations activism, and so many more. All demonstrate the rich diversity of societal forces putting fairness and decency front and center. After centuries of a male-dominated, maximum-financial- return-regardless-of-consequences exploitive capitalism, we are building a new regenerative business culture. Feminization of the economy is part of this, making our financial system relational, co-operative, and with more balanced representation.
It will be an inclusive economy that embraces full responsibility for the long-term well-being of the whole ecosystem. That economy will be made stronger by empowering our cultural mosaic—the rising demographics that add richness, breadth, and depth to society. As we achieve it, we will alter how we employ, retain, and benefit from each other’s diverse talents and preferences.
These shifts add up to an essential decolonization of the conquering, imperialist model that has brought us to the brink of severe global crisis. We must move rapidly to invent a more unifying, peace-loving, shared responsibility for our miracle of a planet, where love is the guiding principle.
Joel Solomon, pioneering clean money investor and change agent, lays it on the line. The revolution is underway, the opportunities are everywhere, and the challenges and rewards are immense.
