Today’s “on-demand” lifestyle, powered by apps for food delivery, transportation, home services, health care, and smart-home tech, comes with recurring costs that didn’t exist for prior generations.
As people live longer and more adults age alone, these conveniences increasingly become essential expenses. Retirement planning must evolve to account for this new category of ongoing, app-driven living costs.
@AbacusGM $ABL uses data-driven, longevity-focused solutions to help clients prepare for these evolving expenses.

Those trucks in your neighborhood delivering countless packages are more than a supply chain at work. It’s a lifeline supporting aging-in-place and independence. More on this in my recent @Forbes article. forbes.com/sites/josephco… @MIT_AgeLab @mitsupplychain

We always hear that men are better prepared for #retirement than women. But that's just about money. On other measures, women may be better prepared. forbes.com/sites/josephco…

A great look at the Longevity Preparedness Index, which introduces a new conversation – and establishes benchmarks – for measuring US adults' preparedness to thrive as they age. We are proud to have developed this new index in collaboration with @johnhancockusa.
