I spoke with an expert on the topic of longevity, Michael Clinton, founder of Roar Forward, *** business intelligent platform with Hearst Ventures, *** part of our parent company Hearst. During our conversation, we talked about what life will look like down the road for today's young people. How do you define longevity and and why do you think it's such an important topic in today's world? 100 years ago our life expectancies was 62. Today it hovers around 80. There are over 700,000 people who are 100 in the world. There will be over 20 million in the year 2100. Clean water, nutrition, medicine, vaccinations all contributed to this rapid shift in life expectancy, and it will dramatically reshape the financial needs of the population. You know, today's 11 year old is going to have *** 60 year career. They're going to have to work longer to fund *** 90 to 100 year life. They might have different careers, but it's *** very, very different second half of life that we're now looking at. We're already witnessing major social changes. For instance, women in the US are having fewer children and starting families later in life. Women giving childbirth in their 30s and 40s. More and more the norm you can stage your life in different ways that you know previous generations were never able to do. We call it the social movement of our lives because it affects everyone because everyone is going to move into these age groups. The first millennials turn 50 in 5 years. That's *** huge generation and they're going to rethink what that all means. At any age, you can. Prepare for living *** longer, healthier life. Stay active with regular exercise, eat nutritious meals, and make sure you're getting enough sleep. Catching potential health issues early through routine screenings can make *** huge difference. And don't forget to keep your mind sharp, try out new skills or hobbies to keep your brain engaged reporting from Orlando. I'm Nancy Alvarez.
