The widening gap between rich and poor means dealing with one big, uncomfortable truth: If you're not at the top, you're at the bottom. The global labor market is changing radically thanks to growth at the high end and the low. About three quarters of the jobs created in the United States since the great recession pay only a bit more than minimum wage. Still, the United States has more millionaires and billionaires than any country ever, and we continue to mint them.

Marco Rubio's parents came to the United States in 1956.

A country where maids and bartenders could raise doctors, lawyers, small-business owners, and maybe even a US senator. That was the American Dream - our country's central promise to its people.

Careers are not linear, predictable ladders any longer; they are fluid trajectories. No matter our age, life stage, bank account balance, or seniority, we are all being asked to navigate career changes much more frequently than in years past. The average employee tenure in America is just four to five years, and even those roles change dramatically within that time. Our economy now demands that we create businesses and careers based on creativity, growth, and impact. In this dynamic world of work, the only move that matters is your next one.

Friedman, one of our most influential columnists, and Michael Mandelbaum, one of our leading foreign policy thinkers, analyze those challenges - globalization, the revolution in information technology, the nation's chronic deficits, and its pattern of energy consumption - and spell out what we need to do now to rediscover America and rise to this moment.

How important is luck in economic success? No question more reliably divides conservatives from liberals. As conservatives correctly observe, people who amass great fortunes are almost always talented and hardworking. But liberals are also correct to note that countless others have those same qualities yet never earn much. In recent years, social scientists have discovered that chance plays a much larger role in important life outcomes than most people imagine.

Historia
Moving to America in 2008, Finnish journalist Anu Partanen quickly went from confident, successful professional to wary, self-doubting mess. She found that navigating the basics of everyday life - from buying a cell phone and filing taxes to education and childcare - was much more complicated and stressful than anything she encountered in her homeland. At first she attributed her crippling anxiety to the difficulty of adapting to a freewheeling new culture. But as she got to know Americans better, she discovered they shared her deep apprehension.

But he had great survival instincts, tenacity, and, above all, a "nothing to lose" mindset.Blair's middle-class childhood came to an abrupt end when his abusive father succumbed to drug addiction and abandoned the family.

Since Alexis de Tocqueville, restlessness has been accepted as a signature American trait. Our willingness to move, take risks, and adapt to change have produced a dynamic economy and a tradition of innovation from Ben Franklin to Steve Jobs. The problem, according to legendary blogger, economist, and best-selling author Tyler Cowen, is that Americans today have broken from this tradition - we're working harder than ever to avoid change.

Historia
Michael Ellsberg and Bryan Franklin think you've been fed a lie: that if you save for decades and invest in 401(k)s, IRAs, and a home, these investments will grow steadily over decades, allowing 20 to 30 years of secure, peaceful retirement. This might have been true at some point in the last century, but it is not true any longer. If you want to get ahead and enjoy a life of prosperity, the authors argue that you must invest in the most powerful source of wealth you'll ever know: your own earning power.

We've all heard that the American Dream is vanishing, and that the cause is rising income inequality. The rich are getting richer by rigging the system in their favor, leaving the rest of us to struggle just to keep our heads above water. To save the American Dream, we're told that we need to fight inequality through tax hikes, wealth redistribution schemes, and a far higher minimum wage.

Often downplayed in the excitement of starting up a new business venture is one of the most important decisions entrepreneurs will face: should they go it alone, or bring in cofounders, hires, and investors to help build the business? More than just financial rewards are at stake. Friendships and relationships can suffer. Bad decisions at the inception of a promising venture lay the foundations for its eventual ruin.

Outstanding Book!!!!
The author, Mr. Smith has done an exceptional job at informing anyone, how to endure the stresses and adapt to a non-traditional career plan. I learned many things that were helpful in getting my new career plan in order. I enjoyed this book, because it was well written and straight forward. It also established that the author is dedicated to assisting recent grads or those in search of a new career path. I highly recommend this book to anyone struggling to get ahead in today's "workforce".

Good book for high school seniors
I thought this book would have lots of tips for getting ahead at work and advancing your career. It was more of a summary of the recent changes to the economy, education, and job markets. I would have liked more tips for those already happily employed who are looking to get promoted.
I liked all the research that the author did, but the presentation could have been a little less dry, and a little more compelling.
This would be a good book for high school seniors who wanted to become better informed about what they were going to face in college and then later in the job market. This is not such a great book for those who already graduated college and found a job - they already know what the job market is like.

This is one of the best audio book!!!
Where does Becoming Generation Flux rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I would rate it my top 3 because they way things are explained in this audio book is very well done. The speaker talks in a pace so that everyone can hear and grasp the information being given.
What other book might you compare Becoming Generation Flux to and why?
"Get The Job You Want, Even When No One's Hiring: Take Charge of Your Career, Find a Job You Love, and Earn What You Deserve" by Ford Myers because both books tells you what is going on in the economy and how you can do things differently to obtain the job you want.
What does Miles Anthony Smith bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
A slow pace reading and stopping where they may be a punctual mark. Also reading it so that I don't get bored just stirring at the words myself. His voice alone is very impressive and makes me want to listen.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I did have extreme reaction to this book because I was surprised of what was said. I learned new things about the economy and types of jobs they are out there. It did not make me laugh or cry because this is just not that type of book. More of an informative one.
Any additional comments?
Great Job, I hope fore more informative books about careers and the economy just like this one. Job well done!

Very informative book!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I highly recommend, " Becoming Generation Flux." It's a very comprehensive yet concise audiobook on career planning. There are many insights on the data on unemployment and labor trends. I appreciated how the author also gives historical context so that his readers can better understand the influxes of the job market. For example, he explains how machines have dramatically changed the era that we live in and resulted in the decline of white collar jobs. The author mentioned people in my generation (90s kids) and how we are more at risk to lie with our parents. This resonated highly with me. However, I feel better prepared and wiser in my career. This audiobook has definitely given me some useful tips and methods.

The labor market is broken. Boo!

Interesting book for Job Seekers
What did you love best about Becoming Generation Flux?
This book had an oddly reassuring tone for current job seekers. I really like some of the advice offered and the way it was presented.
Would you listen to another book narrated by Miles Anthony Smith?
I wouldn't mind listening to another book narrated by Miles Smith, but I wouldn't go out of my way to do so. His narration was fine, but a bit robotic sounding.

A New Way To Believe
Would you consider the audio edition of Becoming Generation Flux to be better than the print version?
I learn by hearing so the audio version is better for me. I would have the print version as a back up to review the references later.
Which scene was your favorite?
The belief by my parents of having a good job for a good company for an entire career is now a myth.My generation were taught,believed and were disillusioned when the rules changed.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
no
Any additional comments?
The author wrote in an entertaining way. The audio version was educational. The chapters were separated in a logical way.
