Imagine Colombia in 30 years

For some reason, whenever I am in Colombia, and thinking of all that has changed, and all that hasn't changed, I begin wondering what will it be like in 30 years. I thought of that in Bogota, when stuck in traffic, and watching the transmillenia buses, packed at rush hour, going by. Was thinking, those were a good idea, but likely something better will emerge.
I was thinking of the transformation of Medellin, over the past 10 years, and about the building boom there and in other parts of the country, and wondering what things will be like in the future.
Anybody have any thoughts on this?

I'll tell you that something to look at is "La Bolsa de Valores de Colombia". Ive recently started my investments and I think long term there are great buys and a lot of interesting opportunities for both local and foreign investment.

Well, there won't be as much traffic in 30 years because there will hopefully be a Metro in Bogota by then.

or because we are too old to walk by then.
metro in Bogota, almost for certain. therefore, why not go ahead and begin with it?
