, while the growth of the freelance gig economy offers an alternative to the outdated job-for-life.
The latter stages of Peggy’s working life might involve part-time work, mentoring, or volunteering—all opportunities to be productive and spend time with people from different generations, helping erode social barriers and ageist attitudes. Flexible work lives also means “a lot of responsibility is put on individuals,” says Scott. “Today’s five-year-olds are going to have to manage their careers much more than previous generations.
The 100-year life isn’t about striving to stay younger for longer, it’s about staying healthy enough and connected enough to maintain a sense of purpose, whether it’s found in the workplace, family, or community.
didn’t life expectancy just plummet worldwide?
I feel for those kids in the future!
'Through boosters we can reduce the world population by 10-20%'. Bill Gates.
Yeah so after like 10-11 COVID infections that newborn probably won't live to even see 60. Maybe you should stop spreading around propaganda and instead start educating the public about Long COVID? Or do you lack a spine too, just like all these other major outlets?
not after mass infection with covid
Life expectancy in the United States is in decline. We have the technology to prevent COVID infection but refuse to implement it.
Oh, so we're just pretending Covid isn't happening? And everything else? Life expectancy is in rapid decline.
lols, after multiple repeat covid infections they will have dementia by 50
LOL, what planet are you reporting on? 🤔 Apart from the damage being caused by Covid-19, you must not be following the bird flu news.
Actually 60 is the new 80, and they’ll work right up until death.
I hope they aren't referring to the US lol.
Lol not with COVID running rampant still
Not with Covid.
Um, no they won't. In the United States we've lost a year in life expectancy for every year of the pandemic so far. We've slid backwards from 26 years of progress to the standards of 1996. If it continues, by 2040 the life expectancy will be 50, but do go on.
Fantasy Ever heard of COVID? Life expectancy is going backwards What a terrible piece of journalism
....................I. This is disappointing...but you know, just ignore the ongoing pandemic I guess.
How likely...
Not with SARSCOV2 - not happening.
Ha! I love how you deny reality
Bold claim seeing as how the world’s governments are destroying the Earth.
let’s hope not in poverty and weighed down by inept governments, or industrial tyrants or world dominating Hitlerites!
what will their lives be like? intelligent, discerning question. deserves answers. and concerted effort to bring about a legacy to future generations. that they may live happy, prosperous, fulfilled lives with purpose and significance.
Too much pain, depression, anxiety and medicines
Ok,looking how the societies are now and the new trendings, living among fascist,new naZionalist,wokist,fanatic religious,vegans, politicians and the worst of all,greedy corporations,I guess their lifes are gonna be shit
A male child will probably start off male, then by age 12 will decide that he is a female. Then by age 25 she will decide that she is a female monday thru friday and a male on weekends. This will go on for 25 years. Then aged 51 or so it will decide its a male antelope.....etc.
Should the US keep pushing smaller nations around, no one will reach 100, a nuclear blast will destroy that dream.
Not if parents are vaxxed.
The way things are going now with society heading the way it is I would say the longer life is just prolonging their suffering, at least in the former United States of America.
Those that survive the ravages of climate change, of course.
Life expectancy is going downward as pharma controls dd training.
If those babies are lucky enough to be born alive that is. Too bad the MRNA Jab has made that rarer and rarer. Don’t take my “crazy”word for it. The governments own statistics make the trends obvious. If you are lucky enough to find them before they are disappeared.
Probably with Alzheimer due to constant electromagnetic radiation from cell phones….
Savernake19631 Let’s reword that. For children of wealthy people with access to high quality water, food and access to healthcare and protection from war 80 will be the new 60.
I don't think so, the planet is literally dying there's no way none of us will live in 10 years from now
Is it really a good thing for such a long life? The older the more Chronic diseases, what quality of life is that
Sure, in theory.
Does bill gates know about this. 100 years he won't be happy. He's got a vaccine for that.
Like our shitty ones, just longer
FANTASTIC
the trends of having access to more, learning less common sense, and choosing ignorance are increasing, I’d say these kids are doomed. Lol
My grandson stays sick with RSV etc. there has to be some good come out of this....
All these lgbxyz people. Humans will be extinct in 100 years. Yay to abc123s!
I doubt this will be true in the US. most people in the country are struggling to survive. my generation is the first generation to make less money than their parents and have a lower life expectancy than their parents…
Dream on! Our planet’s revenge hasn’t even started yet. Add to that our poisoning of ourselves and you’ll be extremely lucky(?) to reach 80, 30 years from now.
with covid like viruses? awesome!
If you can afford it. Everyone else will keep dropping dead in their forties/fifties.
Bold assumption to think society won’t have collaped by then
Horrible.
thats absolute bullshit.. your pharma sponsors released a potential genetic time bomb on the planet. life expectancy has been plumeting almost tactically for the past few years prior to covid due to horrible food and preventable disease.. you are liars
I'm 77 so all I can do is pray for changes that didn't have in my time, realistically mostly over, and for these newcomers, along with ones the age of my grandniece, who's 17, to be able to avail themselves!
Horrible
Come to Canada 🇨🇦 😢 if you can't afford to live here they just offer you assisted suicide for the low price of your organs
And they'll be working to pay their and the countries debts till 102... or beyond. Retirement? Forget that. Just a fairytale the older generations had come true.
I'm gonna guess a Mad Max wasteland! 😠
I would imagine the likelihood of that is fairly low, at least in the US with how unhealthy America is, drugs, violence. People may have the resources and knowledge to extend lifespan, doesn’t mean it’s going to happen.
Hopefully they’ll see the death of religion, the rise of tolerance and the integration of nature and science!
In wealthier nations, or nations with better healthcare systems? Because the US spends more on healthcare than other wealthy nations, but life expectancy is declining…
I don't think so. Isn't life expectancy dropping in most countries?
Nope, they will get fatter, more unhealthy and the world will face stark challenges by the end of the century that will push the global population down
Its sad that American children won't be able to join in on this
It won't be pretty.
They won't when the government is trying to depopulate us. Giving us fake meats and jabs what we don't need
You'll be able to be a consumer and work for large corporations for decades longer
vankapro Not in the United States. You should fix this.
What will their lives be like? Probably exponentially worse since they will be torn between living for a long time yet being told by globalists that there needs to be a decrease in population. Combined with a piss-poor educational system, it's a bleak future.
I'm 47 and I've been saying that I can probably live to 120 for about 20 years now. The amount of technological advancements are getting more and more powerful, at a faster and faster rate. We can barely predict 2030, let alone 2050 and beyond. Shit's gonna get WEIRD, QUICK.
With all the processed foods and toxic pesticides in our food, I seriously doubt they will live that long.
'Kids, if BY SOME MIRACLE we avoid a nuclear war, WE will make you work for 60 YEARS rather than 40 that we had to; you will not own a house, a car, a video game, a movie, BUT you will feel like you do EVERY month when you have to pay the subscription. Rejoice!🙂'
Keep dreaming.... Kids are more and more 'motionless'. Which will lead to obesity , and mental illness will do the rest .....
Horrible. Earth is horrible.
…no one will live to 100 if US neocon-hawks successfully manage to start a nuclear war with Russia or China…
The parents will be happy to see his offspring growing younger, stronger.
Don’t see this applying to Americans 🥲
