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.

Bright Future
In 2040, there is only one country on the European continent: The USE(United States of Europe), with a single government and a single army. But there are no human soldiers; they are all cyborgs capable of repairing themselves. The world is at peace, however. Nuclear energy is used to produce energy and there are beautiful parks. Everyone is friendly. Nobody works except AI, so people now create art, music, and paintings. There are Centers where people discuss philosophical ideas.

Futuro-utopia
Being woken up by a super smart alarm clock, having breakfast ready by a robot cooker programmed at night by smartphone, brushing my teeth with a futuristic paste, dressing and getting ready after a personal robot has prepared everything for me. Exit and close the door with smart lock, monitor taken from the smartphone and be transported by a taxi without driver. Work only four hours a day and with the help of super computers to directly dispense prescriptions to customers. Go from uber without driver to the gym, have a personal trainer computerized and specialized only in my person do the training and return in the same way home. Dinner ready corn once by autonomous and rest day robot "super tiring" and future-utopian.

It's 2040 and nothing is the same anymore. I no longer see a person in the street, whether it's children playing or people walking, our reality has become robotic due to the evolution of technology. Cars drive themselves, robot butlers do the shopping for the house, children take classes online and adults work on computers. Gone are the days when you used to go out to meet a friend... now you only see them by video call.

Hey! 2040 is here... I had no idea time would pass so quickly. Kids are grown up now, life has different shapes and stages, everything is digitalized. It's gone quiet in our lives and everything seems easier now. The children have their own lives; we're seeing our own age. We go on vacations more now, it's easier than 20 years ago because the cars go both on the ground and in the air. They are much better equipped and safer and accidents are fewer and fewer.
