No one seems to be listening to anyone else.

Specially if he (you and me in this case) sounds convinced about what he is saying.

They immediately think you are into some ponzi conspiranoic or you try to sell something.

We can only aim at becoming the living example.

And through years when they inevitably say "I wish I had listened to you" or "you were so lucky to get it in the first place"

We can reply, then, something of the sort of: "it will never be late and you still don't listen"
