MODERATORS
Almost all of them have to work to live somewhat comfortably. They also have to do their own housework and childcare in addition to paid labour, which rich people do not. Both of those, especially in combination, are stressful. Stress ages you.
Once you get to a certain amount of wealth, you never have to do labour again, paid or otherwise, unless you want to.
Not to mention that they can't afford dieticians, personal trainers, aestheticians, etc., as the rich do.
They absolutely do not need to worry about food and housing. The sample size of these people is gigantic and it simply has nothing to do with it.
If they stopped working, they would eventually have to worry. That is the fundamental difference.
Those "super rich" people lose their hair etc too., today they can simply afford to do something about it. 50 years ago they looked like everyone else. The money is important to deal with the issue, not to prevent it.
