На жаль, завищені очікування існували не тільки в бізнес-середовищі. Вони задавали швидке
зростання стандартів особистого споживання, насамперед, в розвинених країнах. Зростання, яке - і це
потрібно відкрито визнати - не було підкріплене реальними можливостями. Це було не зароблене
благополуччя, а благополуччя в борг, за рахунок майбутніх поколінь. Вся ця "піраміда очікувань"

acknowledge losses far exceeding their profits for the past quarter of a century. This example alone reflects the
real state of affairs better than any criticism.
