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.

I would like to see easier access to housing in a better future. So that you don't have to collect half your life for a down-payment and pay a mortgage for the rest of your life. That it would be possible to live without worrying about "your place." I wish that in 2040 people, like in the days of our parents' youth, could get together, spend time together and that no one would feel lonely. Now everyone is a "lonely island" and social ties and friendships are increasingly degraded. I wish that in the future someone would pay attention to this problem and that there would be no need, as in the UK, to create a Ministry for Loneliness.

Probably in 2040 I will no longer be there but I hope for all those who will have a Europe of true peace, of true inclusion, of true sharing. More honesty, less violence, more well-being, more equality, more attention to the climate. A true union of all the countries that are part of it, united to improve the continent of Europe!

The EU is economically strengthened and consolidated. As regards military security, the EU has an army responsible for securing and defending the border (so-called professional army). Every EU citizen between the ages of 18 and 25 is obliged to work for 18 months, alternatively in the social sector.

The Europe of the future has emancipated itself from the USA and presents a self-confident and united front to the outside world. Nevertheless, the original European values will not be watered down, but will be resolutely defended against the world's major power blocs. A strong European Union with a strong military potential, but one that is used defensively. Internally, the governments of the individual European countries have learned that a united Europe is the only way to deal with the rest of the world, and the principle of unanimity has been abolished.
