Article might as well be titled "to live long, be rich"
How they managed to completely overlook the "hidden" confounding of being very wealthy and retiring in Manhattan is rather impressive.
- Chinjut 10y agoThe article isn't making any claims about retiring to Manhattan causing increased lifespan. It isn't even intended as a scientific article at all. I suspect many here only read the headline? It's one man's personal essay on their decision to retire to Manhattan and their enjoyment of it. [Tl;dr: The use of "long life" in the title (probably not even chosen by the author) is figurative, not literal.]
