HOUSTON, March 12, 2024--More than half (54%) of Americans say it’s their goal to live to 100, according to a new study from Corebridge Financial and The Longevity Project. Family, friends and new experiences are seen as the top benefits of a very long life, with 72% of respondents citing continued meaningful relationships with family and friends and 65% looking for more time to explore and have new experiences.
I’d rather retire at 60 and live to 75 than retire at 70 and live to 100, assuming I’ll have the same amount of money to inherit for the next generation. After the age of 80, I’d be so old that I’d have no energy to do anything.
