Bussi

I wake up to compete with the sun, I often lose. I live on a self-driving bus and have given myself permission to grow a beard after I've turned 80. My finances are in balance. Living in a car is cheaper than living in a rental apartment. All my furniture and stuff are old, mostly second-hand. Retirement doesn't have to fight too much bureaucracy to make money. You can also work a little more freely. My motorhome has a good sized kitchen and a separate bedroom. There is a small sauna in the bathroom. There is a small studio in the living area. The car is allowed to drive completely autonomously, no more need for a person next to it. Moving around is easy. Sometimes my girlfriend and I travel a little further. The climate in Finland is starting to be warm enough, especially in the summer. There are still no flying cars, no one has even seriously tried to make them. I don't think they'll ever come. My bipolar disorder has been brought under control when the causes of it have finally been understood. The right diet is crucial. All unnecessary conversational therapy has been eliminated from the treatment companies. I am reasonably happy with my life.

La mia utopia
This is the future I would like.....there will be no more rich and poor, everyone will have what they need, the garbage collector will have the same salary as the politician. There will be tolerance, there will be more listening to each other without prejudice and bullying. First place will no longer be profit and the eagerness to produce and wanting more and more at the expense of others. First place will be personal growth and the pursuit of serenity. We will all have less but what we really need. Nature will be saved as well as our planet

Bēdīgais 2040.gads
Migration from Africa and Asia is very strong. Europe has lost its identity and is always trying to adapt to the demands of immigrants. There are many terrorist attacks. There is an aggressive and terrorist state in the eastern neighbourhood, which has already appropriated large territories from other countries in various ways and is constantly hatching plans to appropriate Latvia as well. There is a constant threat and a very fragile sense of peace. There are many compromises that are only beneficial to the aggressive superpower. Under these conditions, there is no desire to bring offspring into the world - only immigrants breed - a problem that is more evident in well-off Western Europe, where there are more benefits. The greenhouse effect has resulted in very hot summers, unusual for the area, which has a major impact on yields. After fifteen years, I do not expect anything good and nice.

Europa 2040
It was a sunny day in Europe, in the year 2050. The streets of Paris glistened in the sunshine, but they were not like those of yesteryear. Flying cars were whizzing through the air, while autonomous streetcars were cruising down the avenues. At the Eiffel Tower, a group of tourists took pictures with augmented reality glasses, while virtually exploring other historical eras of the city. In Amsterdam, the canals were toured by electric boats that glided silently. Inhabitants wore wearable devices that allowed them to interact with the world in an immersive way, and bicycles floated thanks to anti-gravity technology. In Berlin, glass and steel buildings covered with plants seemed to merge with the sky. Renewable energy dominated, with solar panels and wind turbines visible on every corner. People worked from anywhere, connected to the cloud, while enjoying the benefits of artificial intelligence that facilitated everyday tasks. The pace of life was calmer, but cities were still a hotbed of ideas and culture. History and innovation coexisted, creating a Europe where the future had already arrived, but remained a constantly evolving promise.
