IN A place somewhere on Earth, there is a country.
It is an island called Utopia.
The island is 700 Sq km in area and houses 5 million people. The island is prospering and the population is growing at 5% a year. Only about 3.5 million people are natives, the rest came from neighboring countries as immigrants. 6.88% of the people leaves the country every year.
Utopia sees 40,000 newborns,
15,000 deaths every year. Of the those born, only 1 in 100 is a stillborn, the rest are expected to live up to about 100 years old.
The country is blessed with an even ratio between man and woman. 1 man: 1woman. All of them get married.
Because the government was so good, 100% of the people received at least 10 years of education. Of those, 80% received 15 years of higher education.
There are 2million jobs and 1.9million people in the labour force. But 3% of them was unemployed, which is 57,000 people.

Less than 1,000 people of the same age are free to do whatever they want to do without affecting the functioning of the nation. This is the number of people that can choose as they like how else they want to live their lives. Some of them are volunteers for charity. Some become artists. Most of them are entrepreneurs who retires at very young ages.
Are you the lucky 914?
