Forward Thinking
GDP and Longevity
Health is valuable to us, GDP may not capture that. But it's going to be totally key because if we are all or the majority of us now live in these longer lives, that healthy life expectancy is key. This is the first time ever in human history beyond the middle age, you can expect to become very old. So if we do age better, I think we're sitting healthy life expectancy.

And we've got to made sure our productive potential extends as then we can finance those longer lives."
