      I remember this mindset when I was 17. Unwavering faith in the unlimited human potential. Head loaded with science fiction didn’t even need drugs. Ray kurzweil. Longevity escape velocity. Flying cars.

        Flying cars exist, but only for a few billonairs, same as most other big invention today. Space hotels in the near future, while a lot of people don’t even has the money for a living place.
