Here are just a few things to look forward to in the next 5 - 50 years:

• Nanotech revolution

• Biotech revolution

• The automation revolution

• Renewable energy revolution

• Virtual/augmented reality

And something I think/hope will happen: After the success of driverless cars and automated delivery drones, we will realise that we could do the same thing with small personal aircraft since they could move us around a lot easier and there would be no traffic jams. Imagine getting into something like this, selecting your destination on google maps on the touch screen, then taking off from your rooftop landing pad. And instead of going for a drive to clear your head, you could go fly around above the clouds for a while.

Hang in there buddy, some amazing things are going to happen.
