@jamescutts – I definitely think there’s a generational trend line in here somewhere, statistically. I don’t have those stats, but it would be very interesting to pore over. Think of the “influencer” – that’s a trend that companies picked up on as a way to get virtually free advertising. Paradigm shift. Same with the death of cable versus streaming, and now the new cable style bundled streaming packages. I think it always comes full circle. “Vintage and Retro” which sound hip to the kids, but the older ones just say, “that’s just a re-brand of (whatever)”.

Time is an interesting take on it. Maybe those of my age group do have more time to do what we want? I have one friend who does massive amounts of content creation, because his kids are grown, he’s approaching retirement, and he sees that as his time filler. I was retired young, and have found other ways to fill my time. The “meaning of life” “legacy of my existence” and other big questions weigh heavily when the days are long, trust me.

Definitely lots of angles to approach the conversation. Interesting!
