Paul, this reminds of an interview with Kahn in the FT from October 2009, where he minced no words about the advantage of being a centenarian: "I think people my are age are brighter than people your age. You don't make the same mistakes and that by itself gives you an enormous edge. So how old are you?", he asked the interviewer. "Er, 40 this month." To which Kahn sniffed: "You lack certainty in your convictions."

At the time Irving Kahn was 103 and Roy Neuberger was 106.

I hope there's a direct relationship between longevity and investing (probably first it has to be successful investing).
