[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]money, attention to health, physical activity. Also working -- at least in the royal sense (engagements, public appearances). Studies show that work keeps people mentally sharp and that actually retiring to just enjoy yourself is not good for your health. This is true in my experience, I can think of older people in my life who are retired, not that old, and now seem to have a hard time just dealing with going grocery shopping. My FIL was able to work through most of 80s on a reduced schedule and he was pretty sharp through then, and when he retired, his mental faculties went downhill sharply, sadly. Your brain -- you use it or lose it. Working as a older royal (work that you can tailor to your own schedule) probably helps a lot. [/quote] My father lived to 93 and was as sharp as a tack. He happily retired at 62 but continued to read and learn new things like most adults. [/quote]
