What will your 100-year life look like? Does the thought of working for 60 or 70 years fill you with dread? Or are you able to see the potential of a more stimulating future because of having so much extra time?

Many of us have been raised on the traditional notion of a three-stage approach to our working lives: education, followed by work and then retirement. But this well-established pathway is already beginning to collapse–life expectancy is rising, final-salary pensions are vanishing, and increasing numbers of people are juggling multiple careers. Whether you are 18, 45, or 60, it is important to do things very in a different way from previous generations and discover ways to structure your life in completely new ways.

The 100-Year Life is here to help. Drawing on the unique pairing of their experience in psychology and economics, Lynda Gratton and Andrew Scott offer a broad-ranging analysis as well as a raft of solutions, showing how to rethink your finances, your education, your career, and your relationships and create a fulfilling 100-year life.

Shortlisted for the FT/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award, The 100-Year Life is a wake-up call that describes what to anticipate and considers the choices and options that you’re going to face. It’s also fundamentally a call to action for individuals, politicians, firms, and governments and offers the clearest demonstration that a 100-year life could be a wonderful and inspiring one.
