The claim that high income is central to aging, affecting retirement security, health, and hobbies, is mostly supported by evidence. Studies from Pew Research Center and NCBI Bookshelf indicate that higher income correlates with better health and financial security in older age.

High income is central to aging for a person's retirement security, health, and hobbies.
The evidence suggests that high income significantly impacts retirement security, health, and hobbies. The Pew Research Center indicates that older Americans with higher incomes report better physical and mental health. The NCBI Bookshelf also supports the idea that high-income countries have better health and financial security for aging populations. However, the claim's wording as 'central' is subjective, and while income is important, it may not be the sole factor. Thus, the claim is mostly supported but not entirely definitive.
