Well the one thing I'm the worst at is predicting the future. I thought about NFT but a blockchain record of ownership doesn't seem valuable to me considering the digital content can be replicated anywhere with 100% fidelity.

The flaw I saw in the Star Trek utopia is that even if anything can be replicated perfectly, there would still be a market for originals such as paintings. Somehow a perfectly replicated work of art is less desirable than the original. A classic car is more valuable than a replica.
