Welcome to the Age of Longevity
Plan for a Longer and Better Life!
More time to live creates challenges and opportunities and alters all aspects of our lives. What could we do and, what should we do?
A longer life exposes financial risk for all. The CBC reported in 2019 that Women will manage an increasing concentration of investable assets by 2028, and women continue to outlive men by about six years. Also, we can live many years with a serious or chronic illness. Mental illness, the new pandemic, afflicts all ages. Within our aging families, we must take responsibility—for the old and the very old. Previously, the 3-stage life was education, work, and retirement. Education provided groundwork. Today learning is lifelong. More working years (older employees) compels retraining, yet ageism still stains the workplace. Outside of work, in family life, we can see ourselves as the living ancestor of four or five generations. There is much to understand and more to accomplish. Stanford University published a New Map of Life, where one reviews, reassesses and refurbishes goals, interests, education, and career.
So, The Age of Longevity gives us more time to explore and grow. What can we change, and what should we continue?
