The Prime Timers are pioneering a whole new stage of life: The Lifestyle Years, a phase of life that brings a new balance to work and leisure time that didn't exist for previous generations.

Bernard Salt is a world renowned demographer, and he probably knows more about the pre-retirement and 'lifestyle years' than anyone in the country. He's dedicated his career to studying this age group and how we are changing the way we live, work, buy, spend and sell. 

In episode 6 of Prime Time, host Bec Wilson and Australia’s leading demographer Bernard Salt discuss how the Prime Time generation is changing the game of life:
Prime Timers are doing things differently - creating a whole new stage in life that has never existed before. And for the first time - it’s exciting!
How happiness works in the Prime Time years, and how the happiest years are ahead of you in the decades to come. Learn about the things that drive our happiness down, and what turns it around
How pre-retirees are reimagining work in the Lifestyle Years: Working longer but lighter - our changing expectations of life, work and leisure time
How Prime Timers changing the way we connect with community
What the numbers tell us: Breaking down the census data - what is going right, and what is going wrong in our Prime Time years and what we can learn
Housing and downsizing is changing and the statistics tell a clear story of generational change 
The hunger of the Baby Boomer and Prime Timer for travel and grey nomading: How it's shaping the expectations of our generation

Prime Time with Bec Wilson is the podcast for all of us in the second half of life (47+) who want to live long, live well, and thoroughly enjoy it. Together we’ll dive deep into what will make this phase of life great, with insights from experts and pioneers. We talk about money, health, happiness, relationships, sex, travel and so much more. After all, there are no set rules for navigating this second half for our modern generations.
