How come those CEO' who sit on their ass all day but can afford healthcare like most people in the rest of the developed world live so long? Retiring and sitting on your ass all day will put you under real quick.
There's a reason the stats of the USA look like a 3rd world country to the World Health Organization.

2012 we were 37, 2015 we are 38.

You're right, the affluent live longer. Better cardiac care, better diet, and less exposure to carcinogens, would be the big three probably. Also, better doctors.
