How Many Christmases Do I Have Left?

Holidays come once a year, which makes them easy to count and surprisingly sobering to see written down.

Many people find the number is a nudge toward the visits, calls and traditions that matter most, not a cause for gloom.

Counts use average remaining years from the SSA 2023 period life table. The "1 in 4" column uses the age a quarter of people reach. Averages, not predictions.
