The Longevity Shift: How Living Longer Could Reshape the Market

On The Investing for Beginners Podcast, Ryan Zabrowski explored a big idea: What if people live significantly longer—and stay healthier?

If society starts to expect a much longer, more active life, it changes how we think about everything—from retirement to investment time horizons.

That shift in expectations, in his view, could have major implications for the stock market—including how we value companies and what kinds of businesses thrive in a longer-living world.

Watch the clip to hear how longevity isn’t just a healthcare story—it’s a financial one too.
