"...Originally planned as a book, Generation Wealth had me editing more than half a million pictures taken over the course of my career, as well as taking more than 50,000 new images and conducting over 500 interviews. Halfway through putting the book together, I decided to turn Generation Wealth into a documentary film. At some point I spotted a link between my fascination with our addictive culture and my own work ethic. The more evidence I had, the more I wanted, and the more I thought I needed, often at the expense of my precious family life. My behavior was a by-product of the very societal ills that affected the people I was documenting. Their drives and ambitions were more destructive than mine, but there was a parallel. Work—and the gratification and recognition that comes with it—can be an addiction like any other. To greater or lesser degrees, everybody is following what Florian Homm calls a “toxic dream.” The constant quest for more makes us sacrifice the things that actually matter: family, community, well-being. If we stay on this path, our future is unsustainable: our environment, our relationships, our souls will suffer...."
