[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]E3 married to E3. I would jump off a bridge if I was an L. Does anyone actually choose to be an L? It seems like bad luck at birth.[/quote]
Well, after the apocalypse the L's will probably rebuild the world. E's probably won't survive. G's will help shape society.[/quote]
I think Gs will survive the least. (G4s the most, g2s the least)
Es may have leadership, resources, know-how to stay afloat. Along with G1.
In agreement that Ls will do just fine. L1s might benefit the most. [/quote]
If you were G you would understand that the artificial construct of money that defines the Elites will be irrelevant after the apocalypse (staying "afloat" will be a meaningless concept). E's are the ones the L's will be coming for with pitchforks. With the possible exception of some create E3's, I don't know any E who is truly resourceful if the resources aren't money in a society that already values it.[/quote]
It's a nice fairytale. The reality is Es didn't get where they are by being nice people and easy targets. Even the most charitable are typically pretty ruthless and think well in tough situations. Disorganized pitchforks are pretty easy fended. More likely different Es will have Ls armies. If He suck up enough,  they might survive long enough to become usefully post pitchfork stage.[/quote]
Haha, you're the one living in fairytale land. I agree with you that investment bankers are not nice people...but don't make me laugh in terms of their being particularly good at thinking through tough situations in a context where the outcomes are practical (and not money). I'll give you some corporate CEOs, but I'd put more money on successful L1s as being self-made and resourceful in ways that matter.[/quote]
