maybe we would then have to rely on modern medical technologies such as cloning. anyway, it would be quite impossible to have a worldwide greying population as there would always be coutries such as India.

Well..I am not too sure about India and Africa....but China will be one huge country that will be facing greying population next...considering they are still a developing country, this piece of information is quite a surprise for me.

Because of greying population, by 2030, ...


Then becoming physiotherapists would be good.
My friend is a private physiotherapist doing home visits and he's earning quite alot with flexi schedule. His clients are mostly old folks who are not able to make their way to hospital for physiotherapy (or they refuse to go and wait there).

With a greying population, the problem is much more serious than just needing more healthcare services. Who is going to maintain all the infrastructure (i.e. all the roads, buildings,)? Who will be running the armies, police? When there is fire, who will be the firemen? Who is going to provide services when you go into a restaurant? When you have problem with your computers and any house equipments, who trouble-shoot for you?.....when we say worldwide greying population, it means that we can no longer import workers to fill these gaps anymore.

2. Healthcare - Greying population

3. Domestic workers - higher divorce levels yield more one-parent families

By then, most of the world currencies will be linked to a basket of other currencies and MOST importantly with gold as a component. I’ll not elaborate. In short, the result will be that bankers will not be able to pay themselves big bonus like what those in walls streets are doing today.


Let me make a try on this. I think in 2030, robotic engineers will be in great demand. Because of greying population, by 2030, most of the developed nations and even developing nations today like China will have a high percentage of old people. The world will require intelligent robots to accomplish many of the chores and even to chit-chat with lonely old people.

Cos everyone wants to get into the business/ banking line now - so - dd/ss concept? Lesser engineers... thereby leading to better job prospects?.. :idea:

So…whatever the future holds, learning a diversity of skills and the ability to think and synthesise, I think, are the key.

1. Choose an area of knowledge that is
a) hard to access;
b) requires lengthy technical or conceptual familiarisation;
c) is linked to money, physical comfort, or food.

(This will set you up comfortably.)

2. Choose a second or even third area.

3. Make sure that very few people (or none) have the expertise to link these areas into a useful synthesis.

(This will make you nearly unique and ensure you always have a job.)

4. Learn how to do this with or for other people.

(You will then have the basis of a corporate existence.)
