Having good balance is really important for your health, not least because it means you are less likely to fall over (injuries caused by falls at home cost the NHS about £450 million a year). But surprisingly, having good balance is also a powerful predictor of dementia, as well as how long, and how healthily you will live.

Looking through their data, the researchers found that all three of the tests they had carried out in 1999 had, independently, predicted the chance that someone would die, but the one-legged standing test had been the strongest indicator.

Seems there's a serious flaw in their testing. What if a person doesn't have a leg to stand on? I did one of these on Buzzfeed and it said I've already died. This is convenient as well as intriguing. No worries whatsoever! Ah...the afterlife is good...

Work is retirement... We are not here for a good time...

Ready to work until you die? Economists recommend delaying retirement to afford old age

It seems we're actually here for a long time, not a good time.

Perhaps you’re not shocked by the idea that working longer will give you more money to spend at various points in your life. And while many already struggle to make ends meet and cannot afford to save, the researchers make sure to point out that people ought to put away as much as they can — delaying retirement is meant to be a supplement to one’s retirement plan, not a replacement. Get it together, people.
