Book Summary

The 100-Year Life is a thought-provoking book about how longer life expectancy is reshaping careers, education, relationships, and retirement. Written by Lynda Gratton and Andrew J. Scott, the book argues that many traditional life structures—like studying, working, and retiring in fixed stages—are no longer suitable for a world where people may live to 100 or beyond.

The authors suggest that individuals will need to redesign their lives in “multi-stage” patterns, mixing learning, work, rest, and reinvention. They explore how longer lives can create both opportunities (like second careers and lifelong learning) and challenges (such as financial planning and changing relationships). The book encourages readers to be more flexible, continuously update their skills, and think strategically about long-term life planning.
