| Summary: | <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Context and relevance</strong>. The World Health Organization has included vitality (resilience) in the five areas of internal human functioning. <strong>Objective</strong>. To conduct a theoretical analysis of ideas about vitality as a resource associated with professional longevity. <strong>Hypothesis</strong>. Vitality as a resource is cross-cutting in nature, its increased expenditure can affect professional longevity and life expectancy. <strong>Results</strong>. 1. Increased expenditure of vitality can lead to a decrease in the period of active working capacity and life expectancy. The phenomenon of «payment for intelligence» is described — the rational and search activity of animals is accompanied by their neurosis and a decrease in life. It was found that professional athletes have significant health problems and sudden death syndrome after heavy loads. Representatives of stressful professions have an officially shortened period of working capacity (early retirement). 2. There are mechanisms for compensating costs and restoring vitality. Socioeconomic compensation for successful professionals (salary, affordable medicine, etc.). Cost reduction and restoration of vitality through optimization of sleep and rest. Use of personal resources (physical exercise, intellectual and creative hobbies, handicrafts, etc.). Subjective feeling of restoration of vitality when interacting with other people (communication, interpersonal contacts, psychological climate), as well as when achieving a goal (when the final result coincides with the acceptor of the expected action). <strong>Conclusions</strong>. The identified methods of reducing costs can increase professional longevity, but not slow down biological aging.</p>
