[SINGAPORE] This year, around 1,500 Singapore residents are 100 years old or older, up from 1,200 in 2015, and just 700 in 2010.
What is the probability that we will live to 100? In 2018, UBS Global Watch, a survey of high-net-worth (HNW) individuals, found that more than half believed they would live to 100.
I am also convinced that I will become a centenarian. While my father passed relatively young in his late 60s, my mother is now 92, albeit frail.
