Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

Many of the positive images of aging and suggestions on how to avoid the most negative aspects of ageism are based on the assumption of class privilege, meaning that people can afford plastic surgery, exercise classes and social activities such as ballroom dancing or golf and that they have available time and facilities to engage in pursuits that will keep them young.

However, many older people with meager incomes, little savings, and poor health as well as those who are isolated in rural areas or high-crime sections of central cities, do not have the same opportunities to follow popular recommendations about successful aging. We find that older people tend to have more wealth but less income than younger people. Older people are more likely to own a home that has increased substantially in market value; however, some may not have the available cash to pay property taxes, to buy insurance, and to maintain the property. Among older persons, a wider range of assets and income is seen than in other age categories.
