'Persuasive, uplifting and wise' Niall Ferguson 'A revelation on every page' David Sinclair 'A must-read book with an important message and many lessons' Daron Acemoglu A leading expert on longevity calls for a revolution in the way we think about health, ageing, and the future . . . The last century saw a revolution in life expectancy. Whether you are male or female, born in the global south or north, the chances are that you can expect to live much longer than previous generations. But instead of seeing this as a precious gift of extra life, we see it as a burden, with ageing populations dogged by infirmity, dependent on an ever-decreasing number of young people to support them. Andrew J. Scott argues it doesn't have to be like that. Our longer lives can be a source of hope and fulfilment if we seize the opportunity to pursue the evergreen agenda, one in which we pursue a sustainable lifestyle both for ourselves as individuals - investing in our finances, health, skills and relationships to support a longer life - and for the planet.

What will your 100-year life look like? The prospect of working for 60 or 70 years can be daunting, yet it also presents opportunities for a more enriching future. Many have been conditioned to follow a three-stage life model: education, work, and retirement. However, this traditional framework is breaking down due to rising life expectancy, the decline of final-salary pensions, and the reality of multiple careers. Regardless of your age—18, 45, or 60—adapting to new life structures is essential. Drawing on insights from psychology and economics, the authors provide a comprehensive analysis and practical solutions for rethinking finances, education, careers, and relationships to cultivate a fulfilling life. Key questions addressed include: How can you create a career path that aligns with your values while balancing work and leisure? What strategies can enhance your physical and mental health throughout a longer life? How can you leverage intangible assets like family and friends for a productive existence? In navigating a multi-stage life, how can you effectively transition and explore new ways of living, working, and learning? This work serves as a wake-up call, outlining what to expect in the future and the choices ahead. It challenges individuals, politicians, firms, and governments to recognize that a 100-year life can indeed be inspiring and rewarding.
