Last week, I enjoyed finishing the book "The 100-Year Life: Living and Working in an Age of Longevity" by Lynda Gratton and Andrew Scott. I was also fortunate to attend the launch event for Professor Scott's new book, “The Longevity Imperative,” co-hosted by MIT AgeLab and TIAA at MIT Sloan. The authors provide a unique perspective on economics and social science to discuss longevity. I particularly appreciated the way they structured the book, weaving life-relevant examples into nine chapters on topics such as living, financing, working, intangibles, scenarios, stages, money, time, and relationships.
Longevity presents complex challenges that everyone faces, including issues of identity, choice, and risk, all of which help us navigate a long life (P17). The factors influencing and impacting how we live a long life are diverse, complicated, and systematic—economic and financial, psychological and sociological, medical and demographic (P16). We are already in the era of longevity economics, driven by service and experience industries. Preparing for the future involves transferring money and other social currencies from today to the future, a task most find difficult when trying to connect their current self with their future self (P201).
What impressed and inspired me most was how the authors re-defined "asset" as an innovative figure of merit to measure the quality of longevity planning or the concept of longevity. They describe an asset as something that provides benefits over time (P86) and categorize five different types of assets (P85, P112, P130): tangible assets (e.g., money, pensions, homes) and intangible assets (e.g., emotional support, a wide circle of friends). Among the intangible assets, they identify productive assets (e.g., reputation, peers, knowledge), vitality assets (e.g., regenerative friendships, health, balanced living), and transformational assets (e.g., diverse networks, self-knowledge). This approach effectively helps individuals comprehend the importance of longevity planning and reminds us of what we can and should do to prepare for living and working in an age of longevity.
