Life expectancy depends on wealth. What's the average for rich people?

Same as some peasant in any civilized country with universal healthcare. Something like 83 or so.

Nope. In countries with universal healthcare life expectancy sadly is still dependent on wealth. Better food, better doctors, lower chance of having a hazardous job, better ability to rest instead of rushing back to work etc etc.

(i.e. Germany: About 5 years on average between poorest and richest.) Inequality is bad for us, everywhere.
