I'm 60. I am definitely healthier at 60 than either of my parents were, but my parents did not come to the US until they were almost 40. Cause of death on my fathers Death Certificate is Prostate Cancer. He was almost 93. Rich Americans are dying left and right from Cancer(s) that are just about non-existent in other parts of the world. Everyday 60 plus children under 12 are diagnosed with some kind of cancer. ALL the cancers that matter are increasing, year over year, in incidence. What is silly is to imagine that in ... 20 years, it won't become apparent that the Centenarians are no longer being replaced with new ones.
