In dialogue with the articles in this volume, this afterword takes up the relation between temporality, ageing, and models of the good. In particular, it will consider the diverse models of time that are present in each place studied by the contributors, examining how they shift in relation to one another as people age. I also explore how changes in people's time horizons as they age can shape the prospective component of models of the good. Do values change over the life-course, or do models of their realization change? Whose models of the good should take priority in decisions about what constitutes successful ageing? These and other considerations aim to bring temporality into the centre of current discussions of values, ethics, and ageing
