Age, like death (& taxes), is in our guts. It is one thing we can be 100% sure of. “Old age is still new.” – – Naomi Feil Youth is a Gift of Nature Age is a Work of Art – Chinese Proverb

The Age Wave

The Longevity Revolution

What have you heard?

Variations on Extending Life Life Span: defined as the longest number of years any member of a species has been known to survive. Life Expectancy: the average number of years people in a given population can expect to live, or more precisely, the mean age at death.

Madame Jeanne Calmont

“Elevator” Facts NOW: Over one in every eight, or 13.3%, of the population is an older American. PROJECTED: By 2030: Almost 1/5 (19%) of Americans will be over 65 – look like Florida NOW: Persons reaching age 65 have an average life expectancy of an additional 19.2 years (20.4 years for females and 17.8 years for males). Baby Boomers: Every eight seconds a baby boomer turns 50 (U.S. Census Bureau, 1996) NOW: The number of people today aged 60 and over has doubled since PROJECTED: The number of people aged 80 years will almost quadruple to 395 million between now and 2050.
