Finally, I was surprised to learn that many of today's kids will live to be at least 100. And yet, that is least true for children of color and those born into poverty. Too many of these children will not even make it past the first-quarter of life. If science says all children could have a 100-year-life, then we must shift how we talk about the future and youth readiness, committing to a new set of preparatory and protective factors—what I call currencies and currency-building strategies—that will make the prospect of a 100-year livable life more than a possibility.
