Insights & Ideas: How We're Going to Live
The "Staying Put" and "Moving On" sections offer straightforward ideas about where we'll live as we get older and what kind of role place plays in the quality of our lives. The "Insights and Ideas" section explores how we will live qualitatively no matter where we are located.
What determines how we age? For some, aging is informed by the 5 G's: Grace. Gumption. Gratitude. Generosity. Goofiness. For others, it is simply determined by the stark reality of where we are on the scales of health, financial stability, and just plain luck.
