"The Problems"
- Unhealthy behavior drives 80% of Healthcare needs
- Being overweight and obese is the new norm
- Our nation has a "Retirement Savings Crisis"
Lifestyle Choices that Drive Healthcare Costs
- Obesity
- Overweight
- Smoking

"Retirement Crisis"
Senator Harkin wrote the "Retirement Crisis"
- Half of all Americans have less than $10,000 in savings
- The average 401(k) balance is $58,991
If we can effectively communicate the ills and costs of unhealthy behavior, we will be able to motivate behavior change and shift monies spend on unhealthy behaviors to retirement savings.
"Health to Wealth Solution"
Example: A person who is 25 years old and 50 pounds overweight, on average, spends $5.27 a day on extra food to maintain their weight with their current food choices (identified by our calculator).
Same person smoking 15 cigarettes a day, on average, spends $4.69 a day based on what they pay per pack.
Same person consuming 1 drink a day, on average, spends $4.00 a day based on their consumption habit.
This equates to $4,385.41 in annual, pre-tax dollars. When converted to a Qualified Retirement Plan, over $204,640.00 of new retirement savings for this 25-year-old.
