The 100 Year Life

Meer over het boek

Does the thought of working for 60 or 70 years fill you with dread, or do you see the potential for a more stimulating future with all that extra time? Many have been raised on a traditional three-stage approach to life: education, work, and retirement. However, this pathway is collapsing as life expectancy rises, final-salary pensions disappear, and more people juggle multiple careers. Regardless of your age, adapting to these changes is essential, requiring new life structures. This guide provides insights to help you navigate this evolving landscape. Drawing on expertise in psychology and economics, the authors offer a comprehensive analysis and practical solutions for rethinking finances, education, careers, and relationships to create a fulfilling long life. How can you design a career and life path that reflects your values while balancing work and leisure? What strategies can enhance your physical and mental health over a longer lifespan? How can you leverage intangible assets like family and friends to build a productive life? In this multi-stage existence, learning to transition effectively and experimenting with new ways of living, working, and learning will be crucial for success.
