What will you do with all the extra years?

Right now there are nearly 2 million people in the USA who are in their 90s and it is projected that by 2050 three will be 9 million of us over 90.

What will the extra years be like for us?

Many "seniors" are already worried about outliving their incomes and  adding more years to their lives may add more expenses but not necessarily more income.

Living into one's 90's or 100's is no longer the stuff of legends 

  • it is happening to us
  • and happening right now
  • and will continue to happen

Will you just grow old?

Or grow older better by:

Eating well

Exercising

Taking supplements [but make sure they are not made from rocks and petroleum]

Being social

Hanging out with friends on your computer

Continuing to work [by finding a new career] – even if you don't need the  money

Playing


SMILING!!
