Longevity
On last week’s show we talked about calculating your longevity and if you missed the show go to yoursafemoneyshow.com to hear it. I bring that up because the world’s oldest person passed away last week, and her name was Maria Branyas Morera. She was 117 years and 168 days old. She was the 8th oldest person in history according to Guinness World Records. They say except for some hearing and mobility issues, she had no major health issues. She died in her sleep. The family said in recent days she had spoken of feeling close to death and would miss drinking coffee, eating yogurt and seeing her pet. She said she attributed her longevity to “luck and good genetics. She also said “order, tranquility, good connection with family and friends, contact with nature, emotional stability, no worries, no regrets, lots of positivity, and staying away from toxic people. She lived through two World Wars, the Spanish Civil War and two pandemics, the 1918 flu and Covid 19. She contracted the coronavirus in 2020 at age 113 but made a swift recovery after suffering mild symptoms. Based on a 2022 estimate by the United Nations, there are 593,000 centenarians around the world. It’s a fast-growing age group, and the U.N. projects there will be 3.7 million centenarians alive by 2050. Longevity is something I use along with several other factors when formulating a retirement plan. Ask for our Safe Money Kit by going to the website yoursafemoneyshow.com to get your plan started.
