57: How long will I live? The emerging risk of a long life.

"Unretired" & Inspired - A Retirement Planning Podcast

Caleb and Riley discuss how long you are expected to live! Maybe you’re going to drop dead before this podcast episode even ends (maybe that’s a bit too morbid ). Perhaps you will become the longest living member of your family. We don’t know exactly when, but do know that your days are numbered. In this episode we talk about a major retirement risk that we all face; the risk of having a long and healthy life. Learn more about:

• How long might I live? What do current statistics say about how long you may actually live?
• What is the probability of living to age 100? How is life expectancy changing? Is it trending up/down?
• What you need to do to take care of yourself and reach your full life expectancy potential.
• How do I increase my life expectancy and build a plan that supports a long life while ensuring I don’t run out of money? And don’t underspend?

Memorable Quotes:

• “A retirement projection simply tells you where you are headed based off many static assumptions. But a retirement plan tells us what we will do and when we will do it when those assumptions change. This difference is overlooked and very important”
• “Only 20% of life expectancy is based on genes, 80% is based on our lifestyle.”
• “The oldest person to ever live was the French Jeanne Calment who was 122 years and 164 days old when she died in 1997.“
