Does the thought of working for 60 or 70 years fill you with dread? Or can you see the potential for a more stimulating future as a result of having so much extra time?

Many of us have been raised on the traditional notion of a three-stage approach to our working lives: education, followed by work and then retirement. But this well-established pathway is already beginning to collapse life expectancy is rising, final-salary pensions are vanishing, and increasing numbers of people are juggling multiple careers. Whether you are 18, 45 or 60, you will need to do things very differently from previous generations and learn to structure your life in completely new ways.

The 100-Year Life is here to help.

Drawing on the unique pairing of their experience in psychology and economics, Lynda Gratton and Andrew Scott offer a broad-ranging analysis as well as a raft of solutions, showing how to rethink your finances, your education, your career and your relationships and create a fulfilling 100-year life.

- How can you fashion a career and life path that defines you and your values and creates a shifting balance between work and leisure?

- What are the most effective ways of boosting your physical and mental health over a longer and more dynamic lifespan?

- How can you make the most of your intangible assets such as family and friends as you build a productive, longer life?

- In a multiple-stage life how can you learn to make the transitions that will be so crucial and experiment with new ways of living, working and learning?

The 100-Year Life is a wake-up call that describes what to expect and considers the choices and options that you will face. It is also fundamentally a call to action for individuals, politicians, firms and governments and offers the clearest demonstration that a 100-year life can be a wonderful and inspiring one.

最早见到这本书，是在今年罗振宇《时间的朋友》跨年演讲上，他提到了本书。这本书的书名马上吸引了我。 “百岁人生”，对我来说是个过于长远，也是一个想都不敢想的问题，但是在科技、医疗水平持续发展的社会背景下，这样的人生对我们来讲似乎又触手可及。这是我对本书印象至深...  

在我们将要读《百岁人生》的时候，刚好赶上《时间的朋友》年终秀，会上罗老师也提到这本书，也像这本书一样，只告诉一个结论，我们将来都会活到120岁，至于有没有可能，论据是什么？都没有说，只在大屏幕上放上一本《百岁人生》，那么《百岁人生》里介绍了么？很抱歉也没有，还...
