Being healthy is the top priority and the top concern for wealthy investors, according to UBS's most recent Investor Watch survey. In fact, 90% say investing in their health is more important than growing their wealth.
Investors believe their wealth is a primary reason for their well-being. A full 92% say their wealth enables them to live a healthier life.
