Family first

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

In 2040 I will have a 19, a 24 and 26 year old. I hope that we are able to stay close as a family. We would be able to live in close proximity with each other so I can help my children start their own lives. House prices are more reasonable so they don't have to move far away. I can see them often, child mind my grandchildren and travel with them. I don't want my children to be swamped with debt from huge mortgages, I want them to be able to continue their careers after having children and not have to give up work because of lack of affordable childcare. I us to able to travel together both locally and on ferry to France and UK without it being cheaper to get a flight to Spain for a week than stay locally for a weekend. I want our local government to put people first, building communities instead of just houses. I want my children not to have to worry about going to the doctors because it's too expensive or where will their children go to school because there isn't enough spaces for the amount of houses built. I want my children to be happy and to be able to make memories with them. I want my future to be family!

Robots and AI take over the land and enslave the human race that feels like caged animals. Climate change wipes out the earth as we know it. Food is now just insects and species have dwindled to a few survivors

Una visione ottimista
My days are no longer very similar to those of 2025, today I dedicate the morning to profitable activities and the afternoon to family and my interests outside the workplace. The week is always made up of 5 working days and two rest days and I can decide independently when to take 2/3/4 continuous weeks of vacation to spend in Italy or in the rest of the world at affordable prices. Transport costs have fallen dramatically to foster cultural experiences and exchanges, and the economic impact is not so important. The community has decided to make a system and to pool the knowledge to make sure that the man takes care of what needs an added value, while the repetitive and exhausting jobs are done by automatons. Nature has restored a balance in which what is produced locally is consumed and if you want something endemic you go to that place spending little and polluting little. Education is accessible to everyone and there will not be a myriad of people influenced by social networks with a cultural flattening, but each individual will contribute with what he knows how to do best and what he is brought for.

Let people be kinder and more patient. Forget about the immediate effect of things, like buying something and having it already. That the communication company worker was more fluid. Equality between rich and poor. I would like to travel every year to a different place. Sustainable transport and without non-oil plastics.Enjoy life in all its extension without haste or stress.

Hög teknisk nivå med tyvärr inställning sköt dig själv skit i andra.
Technology has made yet another advance. The battery has developed to higher capacity even solar cells have higher efficiency. This means that more cars can be electric. AI can now be used by the common man, which means that light diseases can be taken care of yourself. Much of the care will take place at home. Unfortunately, the world will remain uncertain. We will see more ego-tripped leaders who want to show their power. Egoism will flourish on several levels. No democracy as we see it today in 2025.
