Imagine a world where everything outside of family and friendships is commoditized as a part-time, rented experience. Your travel, your property, your entertainment, your wardrobe, it’s all access-based. And the moment you stop paying it disappears. Should we be worried about this access-based economy?

To the generations that know the joy of owning and caring for personal property (no matter how small the ownership), this seems like a nightmare. But to the newcomers that want to freely float around without the weight of ownership tying them down, the access-based economy is beautiful.
