Healthspan vs Lifespan: Why Gen X Must Rethink Retirement
In this episode, Dr. Preston Cherry talks about why Gen X should focus on health span—how well you live—not just lifespan—how long you live. He explains that many people over-save for retirement and miss out on living fully now. Instead of treating retirement as one big block of time, he encourages planning for different life stages. The key is to spend in ways that match your current life and values—so you can enjoy life while building for the future.
Takeaways:
• Plan for health span
• Spend by life stage
