Life Week #97 - 2024 predictions
Anyone can predict, even if most of us should not...
2023 summary
Before predicting 2024, let's seek how precise my predictions for 2023 were.
⛔️ I will finally finish my first side project
and it will become a minor success. It should double my passive income level by the end of the year. ✅ My wife will release some first educational materials, but will start considering going back to school in September. ✅ My son will win some medals in wrestling tournaments, but it will be too difficult to win any gold this year. ✅/⛔️ My daughter will continue to sing and will become the top signer in the next X-mas show of their group. ✅/⛔️ We will have a couple of big family events. I expect at least one not-so-positive. ✅ Economic situation will not become better, many of us still don't experience a crisis which means that there is a place to raise a bar. ✅ War on Ukraine will not end this year, it will not be very dynamic. ⛔️ Elections in Poland will bring no change, there are too many printers ready to print money. ✅ Inflation will not raise anymore, but the drop will be very, very slow, mostly due to printing money due to elections.
Nice predictions, right? 🙃
2024 predictions
Let's try to predict what the future brings...
Personal
- I will finally (finally 😳) finish my first
side project
and it will become a minor success.
- I will finish the renovation of my new flat to start renting it but not by the end of September, as initially planned, but by the end of the year.
- My wife will stay in the school she is working in currently with a smaller amount of hours as a teacher but with the new role of supervising teacher in one of the classes.
- My son will finally wake up from his teenage laziness to do some activities / find a new hobby.
- My daughter will continue to sing and will finally perform her first song as a solo singer.
Global (from the Polish point of view)
- The global crisis will not end this year due to many geopolitical conflicts in Europe, the Middle East, East Asia, etc.
- The war on Ukraine will not end this year (again), it will not be very dynamic.
- The real estate market in PL will finally have a small crisis in the second half of the year.
- AI will still grow, while Apple Vision Pro, although excellent, will not change the AR/VR world.
- The AI revolution will continue impacting the IT market limiting the amount of developers needed in the market & salary raises outside the AI business.
