What a year! I couldn’t let this end without a couple of predictions that may or may not happen in 2015…
• Apple’s iWatch will kickstart the wearable tech revolution.
• Apple Pay will not make much of an impact.
• China’s economy will slow down even more, leaving time for the government to deal with pollution.
• Violence and frequency of terrorist attacks will increase even more, leaving no time for other governments to deal with problems at home.
• Solar power and other renewable forms of energy will become more popular and affordable.
• Physical album sales will become less popular and concert tickets less affordable.
• Minimum wage will rise in all 50 states.
• Oil prices will continue to decrease around the world.
• Another country or area will vote/protest for independence (read: Hong Kong).
• Another area of Ukraine will be in turmoil as Russia attempts to seize it (or succeeds).
• The Ebola epidemic will spread to surrounding areas such as the Middle East and Europe before eventually being stopped.
• The flu epidemic will hit hard in the United States this year.
• Most predictions with plenty of research backing them up will come true.
• Some of my predictions will not.
