Find something you love to do – and pay for it (Βρες κάτι που να αγαπάς να κάνεις - και να πληρώνεσαι γι αυτό)

In 2040 I imagine and I hope that more and more people have found and earned a job that really loves them. Not to work with expatriation and with a sacrifice, not to feel wasting half of their lives simply because they have to survive, to stop waiting from the morning to arrive in the afternoon, from Monday to Friday, and so on, to wait every day (either on a working day or that) with the same appetite and passion for their work that they would find in, for example, a hobby. This should be achieved through real investment and engagement with children and young people since yesterday, by effectively integrating vocational guidance into secondary and tertiary education. By constantly reviewing and updating all existing and emerging jobs (university or non-orientation) and their respective lifestyles, personal analyses and psychological tests with a view to proposing alternatives for each individual, depending on their personality and irritation. But even for adult workers/unemployed/pensioners at all ages, there should be guidance structures for anyone who wishes to follow another path, operating according to the same criteria, while at the same time providing advice and an action plan to move from one object to the next.

I hope that there are some decision-makers who have opened their eyes to how society's economy can hang together in the long run. In 2040, I'm 51 years old and apparently still have more than 20 years in the labor market - that is, if I live that long. So in 2040, I hope that we have sorted out how the welfare society will be able to hang together and if I continue to work in the public sector, I hope that there has been a major review of the legislation surrounding public benefits, so that there is more dignity for both the sick and the caseworkers on the other side of the table.

There is no more money, everything is free, jobs are done without pay because we don't need it anyway because everything is free, people live in peace and without worry, we have enough natural resources, nature is green and unpolluted, politicians have become honest because there is no money to bribe them with....

In 2040, a world war will rage. It will be fought largely over water resources, which will then be chronically scarce. The few countries that still have clean, drinkable water resources will be under occupation by the richer developed countries, which will own their water resources. People will live in scarcity and poverty, famine will reign, disease will be rampant and people will die en masse from malnutrition and poisoning. War will end when humanity is extinct.

In 2050, Europe is very different. Cities have become green and smart, with tall buildings covered in plants that clean the air and generate energy. All buildings are energy self-sufficient and every home uses advanced recycling and solar panels. Cars have disappeared from the city streets, replaced by wide paths for pedestrians and cyclists. At every turn we see urban gardens where people grow their own food. Transport has changed completely, with high-speed railways and flying cars connecting cities across Europe. Education is technology-driven, with every child having access to a personalised curriculum. Europe has become a centre of innovation, where people from all cultures come together to create a better future, free from pollution and more connected to nature.
