Well reading that made me think of this saying

“A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.”

Sadly I think we are though and I wont be here to see it

I've actually done a lot of that in the last few years. My heirs will benefit greatly from my efforts and it's my hope their contributions will help their society be great.
