Studies have shown that engaging in an encore career can lead to improved health and successful aging for older individuals. This is likely due to the increased social and cognitive activity that comes with continuing to work and engage with others. Additionally, depending on the specifics of his situation, Fred may also see a more secure financial situation from his encore career as a professor. Poor health (A) and less activity (C) are not likely outcomes of an encore career, based on research.
