Young people

There is hope. When I am old and my sorry arse needs to be wiped, chances are that it will be done by a cute young nurse:

"Despite the ageing of the population, the Netherlands will have one of the most youthful populations in Europe in the year 2050. 27 of every 100 inhabitants will be under 25 at that time. Only Luxembourg will surpass the Netherlands with more under-25s, the European statistical bureau Eurostat reported on Friday. The bureau has found that the proportion of youth in the total population is decreasing throughout the EU. While the Netherlands will see a decrease from 30 to 27 under-25s per 100 inhabitants, the EU as a whole the average will decrease from 29 to 23 percent in 2050."
