Advice from a 104-year-old PhD student | ED 262 Above and Beyond the Call | Scoop.it
In October 2020, Lucio Chiquito submitted his PhD thesis at the age of 104. Mr Chiquito is from MedellĂ­n, Colombia. He started his PhD at the University of Manchester 77 years ago, held a successful career as an engineer throughout his life, and was the co-founder of Colombia's largest energy company. He attributes his longevity to being an avid reader, his spirituality, diet, frequent exercise, steadfast persistence and discipline.
