In the next 5 years, these will be the most expensive things, not houses or cars.

With the advancement of society and the continuous development of the economy, the value of everything in life is constantly changing. Previously, everyone thought houses and cars were the most luxurious things, symbols of economic power, so most people aimed to own them.

However, in today’s rapidly developing economy, people’s lifestyles and values have shifted. In 5 years, the most expensive things may no longer be houses and cars, but rather things that are very simple yet cannot be bought.

Here are some predictions of what will become the most valuable in the next 5 years:

1. A stable job
   In today’s fast-developing society, a stable job has become a key goal for many people. A stable job ensures a steady income, which can cover tuition fees and daily expenses for a family, as well as foster good relationships with colleagues, and allow for a high-quality life. Many young people nowadays desire a high income rather than accumulating small amounts each month. However, this is not something everyone can achieve, and it remains a goal for the coming years.

2. Healthy food
   As the economy and society evolve, so too does food, and these changes significantly impact people's health. In today’s fast-paced life, many people choose take-out or fast food to save time. Although convenient, these foods pose various health and food safety risks. It is difficult to control the freshness and quality of ingredients in take-out or fast food. In 5 years, this situation may worsen, making safe and healthy food increasingly valuable.

3. Health
   If we look at the past generations, for our parents (the 60s, 70s generation), the biggest goal in life was to have enough food and clothes. By the 80s and 90s generation, society had moved beyond basic needs, and the goal shifted to becoming wealthier than others. Nowadays, many people chase wealth and comfort, often at the cost of their health. In the future, health will become the most valuable asset, even more precious than money.
