Where do you hope to be by 2030?

[TazzyDrunk]

As it is the start of a new decade where do you hope to be by the end of the next decade

I will be 36 in January 2030 , quite scary , hopefully I will be more progressed in life by then.

I’ll be 46 and my kids will be 11 and 13. I’m dreading the high school years so hoping they’ll both be doing well and happy. My parents will be in their 80s by then so hope they’ll be still here. Other than that would be good to be getting more sleep and hope that DH and I are getting a wee bit more time to ourselves here and there as the kids get older.

I’ll be 50.

If all goes well the baby I’m currently newly pregnant with with be turning 10 fuck. My eldest will be 27/28. My dad will be 15 and hopefully not a massive pain in the arse.

I would like to think the next ten won’t be a shit as the last ten, but I don’t have much hope.

I just want to get thorough it with healthy kids and no horrible illness/death.

My dd will be 15.

Hopefully with a couple of kids.

God knows where we will be living. We started off this decade in one country and have ended it together in another, via about four others on the way.

In January 2030 I will be 39 and DS 16.

I would like to be in our own home, as we currently rent. I am hopefully buying this year so that should be a given.

I hope to progress at work and have a better salary, and to have travelled a lot more by then.

DS will either be in his first year of college or doing an apprenticeship, whatever he wants to do. I hope that he is happy in his choice.

I’ll be 41 in 2030, my son will be 14, shit.

Hopefully I’ll be married to the lump that’s currently drooling everywhere.

I hope my son will be happy, well, as happy as a teenager can be!

I’ll be 52. DC will be 12. He might even be sleeping through the night by then. Mortgage should be paid off. Hopefully DH and I will both be alive and well. I don’t dare think any more than that as a couple of relatives are undergoing chemo just now, and my beloved cats are well into middle age already. I’m sure there will be lovely things that happen in the 2020s but there will also likely be devastating losses.

This thread has been really helpful to me. Lots of people are posting about what has happened to them in the last 10 years. The last decade has been pretty horrendous for me. It's really good to look forward now.
I'm striving for some peace and happiness.
I'm going to look at booking some nice activities in the next few days.

@Oopsypoopsy2020 oh that’s a good idea, I might do an envelope too.

The last 10 years started with me single, a few years out of university, party-ing a lot, not altogether happy. Ended predictably as married with kids. It’s funny to think of the people starting this decade how I started the last one.

The next ten years will be less eventful I think as I’ll mainly be at home watching children grow up. We might move house I suppose. Hopefully just quiet contentment.

I'll be 48 with two grown up daughters and a 16 year old son.

I'm hoping I'll be able to look back on ten years as a writer, with at least three published novels to my name.

I'm hoping my older children will all have found a path in life where they feel fulfilled and self-determined. I'm hoping DS will be coming to the end of his education having learned to manage his sensory issues and build on his strengths so that he can build an independent life.

I'm hoping my abusive ex will have faded into the background and I'd like to be living in a peaceful part of New York with the kids. I'm also hoping I'll have a wonderful, equal, well-balanced relationship with someone who is 100% right for me.

As the song goes:

"You've got to have a dream,
If you don't have a dream
How you gonna have a dream come true?"

I will be 47 with an 18, 17 and 13 year old. I would like to be in control of my weight and finances.

This is going to be the decade when I establish myself as an artist. My parents will both probably die. I haven't got any more time to waste.

Retired somewhere rural, my son graduating or well on his way to his career, probably fostering if all goes well.

I will be 43 and kids will be 18 and 14 . Hoping I will be more secure financially and can afford to do some nice holidays .

Still fit with all my marbles but judging by friends in their 70s it's a lottery!

Probably same shit, different day

Mortgage free, either new career I like or retire. I will be 55.

All things going well, on 1 Jan 2030 I'll be 44, and my kids will both be over 15. I'd like to have become fully qualified in my industry, which would double my current salary. We would have just over 10 years left on the mortgage (though I'd want to have been tackling that to reduce long before 2030).

I reckon my cats will be gone - 11 yo now. They've got a great life, so whilst it will be sad, it's nature. We won't have any more.

Retired

I'll be 52, Dh 53
Ds will be 16

Dps will hopefully still be around and in their mid eighties

I want us all to be healthy and happy

I also would love another child although that looks very unlikely, a different job, a new house and a dog!

Still alive!

I'll be 52 and DC will be 23 and 20. I hope they will be enjoying themselves and working towards their own goals. I hope to be living by the sea and would love to have a partner.

I'll be 54 and DH will be 62. I hope the company we're planning to start together this year (have been test-driving the idea for the past 4 years as a sole trader) will mean that by 2030 he'll have been able to give up his full-time job. We'll probably still be living where we are and the mortgage will nearly be paid off. Our older spaniel will no longer be with us, but the younger collie should still be around - whether we'll have caved in and got another one is debatable, we said we were going to take a break from dogs after the younger one so we could travel more, but both feel that it isn't a home without a spaniel in it. Senior horse will most likely have gone (he's 25 today), middle pony should still be around at 30 and I hope junior horse at 20 will still be taking me for the odd hack.

Still alive

DD will be 20 and DS 18. Hopefully both launched to uni or whatever it is they wish to do. We will have come through the teenages hopefully. At the mo they are 10 and 8 and broadly speaking it's a really golden time so am anxious about losing that.

My elderly grandma will have died (or is not she'll be 103!).

My parents will be 86 and 83 so I think I will be involved in caring for them.

Perhaps my sister will have moved back up north from London.

DH should hopefully have completed a long and rigorous training. I am hoping I will be in the mid of the same training.

I'll be 55 and menopausal. But my DM and DGM didn't suffer too badly so I hope I won't. I know the training I want to do will be v stimulating and it is what I so want to do.

I just hope for Health and solvency !
