Aging and Longevity
To-Do Date: Sep 14 at 11:59pm
Overview
It is estimated that by 2050, 1 in 6 people will be over the age of 65. We currently have more people living to 100 years and beyond than ever before, and this is likely to increase worldwide.
What does this mean for those who are living longer and what does this mean for those who will be caring for them? Should we extend the time of employment and not retire until 80+? What resources will there be and what do we need to do now to prepare for this larger group of seniors?
And for those of us who could be living longer, how do we achieve that and maintain good health?
