In a @WSJOpinion op-ed (paywall), @AARP’s @PolicyDeb cites a key study on how positive beliefs about aging can extend the lifespan. “The advantage held even after controlling for age, gender, socioeconomic status, loneliness and health.” #Aging #Longevity spr.ly/6014sByYA

Cortney Sanders (@SocialSecurity) cites Debra Whitman (@policydeb) in her closing remarks: "Zip codes are more important than genetic codes in determining a person's health and welfare." And, Cortney adds that social insurance creates the outliers.
