Motivation
I've always been a big believer in the power of money to motivate behavior. I'm going to assume that it is merely a coincidence with this case in Miami, where, 15 years ago, an 85 year old man promised his doctor a free trip to Europe if he helped him reach 100. The man did make it to 100, and the doctor is going to take the trip.
I hope this doesn't start some kind of bidding war for doctors' services, such as "How much is it worth to live long enough to see your grandkids graduate from college?"
