What I would like to support is a large and long term study involving multiple families in multiple European countries with multiple values.

I don't think the outcome is very interesting. There are all ready subgroups in society who have some kind of UBI like pensioners and trust fund babies.

I want so see the effects on the total economy. If for example UBI leads to massive inflation it would completely nullify the UBI.

How about productivity? Saudi Arabia is an interesting example, since their economy pretty much runs on free oil money. Saudi nationals are notorious for having bad work ethics, and they have to import foreign workers to run the economy.

I personally don't believe in UBI, but I'm willing to change my mind if proven wrong, as long as my own country is not part of the experiment.

Actually that would be highly desireable because it would mean the UBI acts as "employment of last resort" rather than free money, except you don't have to do anything to keep your job. It also means that every job will pay more than UBI which means there is no incentive not to work. Considering the financing challenges you want as few people as possible on the UBI.

I think it will lead to inflation of rents untill landlords capture most of BI value. Unless it's specifically prevented by rent controls or progressive real estate tax that's fed straight back to BI funding.

Having seen quite a few EU funded software projects going no where for years and years, its hard to believe they have the capacity to pull off anything complex. Lots of good people and intentions but idk how it all fizzles.

They are good at organizing conferences and barbeques though.
