What kind of world will it be?

A colleague of mine told me her 9 year-old son has NEVER taken a bus in his life... Another colleague of mine told me some time ago that she needed to go and see her daughter off in the airport because her school choir was going to Vienna!!

I was going to church by bus on my own when I was nine. And I didn't go to Vienna until I was 21 using my own money.

When these children grow up, what will the world be like?

(I read on Ming Pao today, a story about a very rich billionaire-- Tin Ka Ping, who donated almost all his money to schools and universities, he doesn't even have a car of his own and need to take MTR every day. His wife and he spend HK$3000/month only... What a contrast...)
