^*The Queen is still going in her 90's. How many of us will be doing that
Probably those of us who have access to the best health care going, never have to wait to see a doctor, no waiting for scans or ops etc. Combine that with the best quality healthy food, servants, no money worries, never had to do physical work.....in other words, a lifetime of privilege and cosseting, not hard to figure out is it.*^
Not just the wealthy who stay able and active in their 90s. A lot is genes too I think.
Three of my grandparents are still doing well in their early 90s. All three can get about in varying degrees, despite general old age conditions such as arthritis.Two still drive, safely too and without accidents or incidents. My grandma goes dancing at least once a week and is out and about most days. All three are/we're hardworking 'working class' and now live on relative small pensions.m, albeit my grandad has one go his work from years ago. One was a single parent for much of her 7 childrens' lives, not great areas for living, worked part time jobs to get by, state pension, sheltered council housing, relies on standard nhs, etc.
One thing money can't buy you is your general health or cures for nasty illnesses. Some of it is luck and some is genes too. Not everything can be attributed to having access to private medical care and a lot of money.
