blog 65

If I could pick any time period to be born in I think it would be pretty easy to say that I wish I was born in the future. I think living in the future would be great. It’s hard to image what all new things there will be in the future. The world has come a long way in advancements over the years and it’s interesting to think how much further they will go in the next 50 years or 500 years. Maybe we will all be flying around in space ships instead of cars by then or jet packs. Either of those would beat a car or bus any day. I also wonder how advanced we will be in medicine by then. It’s likely that dieses like cancer will be able to be cured by then. Who knows, maybe in 500 years, people won’t even get sick any more. We will have a cure for everything. We will also probably live a lot longer. The age we die at has only gone up over the years so if it continues to do that, maybe will live to be close to 200 years old someday. That is a long time to live. You would be able to do so much since you would have so much time to do it all. If we lived to 200 would that mean that people would still retire around 50-60 or would they retire instead when they are like 100 or even older? I guess we’ll never know..

  2. My guess is they'd have to retire way later people are already having trouble living on their retirement funds, what if they had to last 10 times longer.
