The New Old Age Longevity Time Magazine cover

TIME MAGAZINE: The latest issue features ‘The New Old Age’ – What to expect when you’re expecting to live longer…

It is a sea change—and one that raises big questions about how we both individually and collectively navigate what, in a sense, is our new old age. How, for example, should we spend our extra time? Should employment still be confined to a finite number of years, or instead ebb and flow throughout an entire lifetime? And where, in a world of acute housing shortages, will everyone live?
