Natural Health Tip - Never Retire
By Gary Scott
The keys to wealth and longevity are one! I have studied longevity
a lot. Few aspects of finance have such an impact from a personal and social
point of view as how long people live. Long lives create more time to make
money or more time that capital has to last. Longevity affects government spending,
social security, medical costs, etc. Longevity and health also have an enormous
impact on our financial planning. Eat and live bad means save up to pay the
doctors but don’t worry too much about a big retirement fund. You won’t
last that long.
Eat and live well and you had better stack up the bucks if
you plan a slow down, but don’t worry so much about medical costs.
There have been numerous studies of longevity and the conclusion
so far is that aging is overrated. Old age can be just as fulfilling a part
of life as adolescence! What is most interesting were some conclusions about
what might cause long, productive lives.
The studies show that the same factors that create longevity
create wealth! "Those who are hopeful, happy and optimistic in attitude
live much longer." So let’s be thankful!
Anti-age researchers for example have also discovered that
those who had a rich vocabulary and were able to express themselves early in
life were most likely to keep their intelligence intact in old age. Instead
of use it or lose it the motto is "develop it and keep it!" They
also found that a life pretty free of tobacco, alcohol and excesses of any
kind help. Mellow attitudes filled with faith, prayer and a sense of community
are anti-aging factors.
Another key is that they are always looking forward. Having
a purpose and keeping your mind active, reading, talking and working helps
you live longer and earns more.
Purpose, hope, optimism, silence, activity and faith. These
factors are also the fundamentals of health and wealth.
So how about this? Don’t plan on retiring. How about
this instead. Live to be 100 or more. Let your capital grow so your lifestyle
improves every year. Do more at 69 that at 65. Do lots more at 79. Have a huge
bash for your 89th and think up a whopper for your 99th birthday…something
so outrageous you can’t imagine it now.
A business acquaintance agrees. Lord Rees-Mogg, a member of
the British House of Lords, and used to speak at my seminars decades ago. Now
near his 80s he is still active and he spoke at a seminar with me a couple
of years ago.
The gala dinner at the end of this seminar was a great treat
and fortunately I was seated to the right of him. We talked all night. I learned
a lot. He is a genuine, learned man with an incredible grasp of history. The
last time we had talked Lord Rees-Mogg was Sir Rees-Mogg and that's had been
nearly 20 years. His mind is still sharp as a tack, he is energetic and very
physically fit.
Recently an article about old age authors included him and
says:
William Rees-Mogg, 77. After Charterhouse and Balliol College,
Oxford, Lord Rees-Mogg joined the Financial Times in 1952, rising to become
chief leader writer and assistant editor before joining The Sunday Times in
1960. From 1967 to 1981, he was editor of The Times, where he still has a column.
He also writes for The Mail on Sunday.
"I think there's been a big change in journalism. People
now realise that the audience for journalism is influenced by its own experience
of life and that newspapers want to retain their older readers at the same
time as they want to get younger readers and therefore, you get a great demand
for old journalists to write.
"You're writing for people with a similar life experience
to your own. There are more and more old journalists and I think that's a natural
trend. You do establish a strong relationship with your readership.
"I've got two areas which I've written about for most
of my life. One is politics. I was the FT's lobby correspondent for six months
in the 1950s. The other is economics and financial journalism. I tend to go
back to those as the core of what I write about.
"I was on two papers in succession which were very much
on the up - the FT in the 1950s when the modern FT was created, and The Sunday
Times in the 1960s, when it became the dominant broadsheet Sunday paper.
"At The Times, my earliest years were years of opportunity,
but in the 1970s a lot of work was basically defensive, trying to keep the
paper going despite interruptions in production. My advice to young journalists?
Never retire."
