Longevity pioneer Peter Attia explains why the quest to live longer is constrained by the US healthcare system

The ultra wealthy have been shelling out to live longer for some time.

Roll and Attia discussed cancer as an example. Treatment breakthroughs are not having a seismic impact on survival. Better survival requires better up-front detection, Attia said. Because stage-for-stage, you have a better shot at beating cancer if you have fewer cancer cells. For Attia, it was well worth it because a good 5% of people who die of colon cancer are diagnosed with a cancer that occurs at or before the age of 40, he said. "But the second thing that a single payer system does very well — and this gets to the heart of what you're asking about, Rich — is the payer owns the risk for life, so there is an incentive to prevent," Attia said.

With all of the buzz around"longevity," and much of that buzz generated by the world's most elite circles, conversations about living longer can get. People are aspiring to live to 120 through shortcuts and technology breakthroughs.
