In terms of medically and technologically? Sure. I’d hands down rather be an average person today than in 1860 or whatever.

In terms of say, home ownership, age of retirement, weight, social life, financial security, time off, etc - things that actually make our now longer lives fufilling - how have those trended in the western world since say, the 40’s?

If I took just one average job of these so many “available”, could I support kids and have financial security in decent housing?
