About TEDx, x = independently organized event
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.*

Very challenging. In re-inventing myself now just retired at 67, I have reflected that there is no rocket science but specific life skills set and hard works and non-ruinable risk to start. There after is taking the right investment decision and taking a ride on the compound interest exponential power to grow wealth.

this video is HIGHLY underrated. He hits on so many strong points that are still relevant today. Maybe even more so because so many people want to leave their jobs (in 2021/2021). And today, we have so many people becoming engineers, it's going to be like a sales worker, easily replaced but the top will always be on top.

As part of a visit to a university I was told that worldwide we actually need a lot more pilots. As flying becomes cheaper and countries like China start travelling a lot more the demand is increasing rapidly and I was told even all the universities in the world at full capacity cannot keep up with training enough pilots.

Tiešām laba runa. Patīkami redzēt, ka ministrs ir inteliģents cilvēks, kurš prot uzrunāt.

Just wondering on the vocational vs general education, can it be most people who had vocational education have retired while people who had general education still have to work for a living at an older age?

Interesting thoughts, very well delivered.

Good choice of the topic, especially right now, when high-school graduates are submitting their uni applications. Still, re that argument on specific skills becoming less valuable towards the later years of one's career: from what I've seen, early specialization pays off greatly, and by the time you reach that late-years-specific-skills-value-drop, you likely will have earned enough to retire early.

Aside from creative genius/luck/timing, automation is definitely complicating this. Broader learning increases resilience and flexibility, in my opinion. I rarely hear this though.

I don't find out much the relevance between the title and the content of this TEDTalk. :v

There are many TED talks that contradict him and/or give much better advice about finding your passion = work.
