The US government tracked people from ages 20 to 65. They found that when these people arrived to 65, for every 100 people: 36 were dead 54 were living on government or family support 5 were still working because they had to 4 were well off 1 was wealthy ​ That’s the US. I don’t think that the rest of the world is so different. ​ I don’t know what your plan is when arriving to that age. Considering that you don’t want to be in the first group… what’s your plan? Where do you want to be? ​ Mine, certainly is not working hard for many years and not be in the 1%. And you shouldn’t have anything different to that.

On average, about $1,000 in “athleisure.” They...
