For one and just like Kissinger, I'm sure he had full-time palliative-care medical staff on bankroll, so for the last 20-30 years he was being monitored, and this included being heavily ascetic unlike his peers he outlived.
This is the logical conclusion — but there's like thousands of wealthy people around the world with plausible access to the same resources but they barely even get to 80. It's only when Enrile was around 99 when he avoided the public eye and showed signs that he's going to croak.
If it's not wealth or common sense, it's genetics... and luck.
Access does not always mean everyone will be interested in those resources...
