Capitalism made the modern world. But can it survive its own success? For generations, capitalism delivered prosperity, opportunity, and the promise of a better life. Then something changed. Factories gave way to finance. Homes become investments. Competition become consolidations, Wealth stopped spreading outward and began concentrating upward. Through the stories of ordinary families in America, Japan, Britain, and Singapore, this book traces capitalism's transformation from Adam Smith's vision of competitive markets to a world dominated by financial assets, political influence, and concentrated power. This is not a book against capitalism. It is a warning to the generation that will inherit it.
