The near doubling of life expectancy in the 20th century is among the greatest challenges and opportunities we face today. If we continue to live our lives according to the norms based on lives half as long as the ones we now enjoy, we will surely face a crisis. But we can, and need to, change education, work, and intergenerational compacts to use these added years to improve our quality of life.
