ONE IN FIVE PEOPLE THINK WATCHING THE BALL DROP IN TIMES SQUARE IS SOMETHING EVERYBODY SHOULD DO BEFORE THEY TURN 40.

THAT’S ACCORDING TO A RECENT STUDY BY ONEPOLL ON BEHALF OF VSP VISION CARE. THEY SURVEYED 2,000 ADULTS, EVENLY SPLIT BY GENERATION.

RESULTS SHOW THEY BELIEVE GOING ON A SOLO DATE (16%) AND CONQUERING A FEAR (20%) ARE ALSO THINGS AMERICANS SHOULD EXPERIENCE BEFORE HITTING THE BIG 4-0. 

BUT HOW ARE THEY PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE? MOST SAY THEY’RE EXERCISING MORE OR GOING TO THE DOCTOR (54%), SAVING MONEY (52%) AND SETTING REALISTIC GOALS (42%).
