When do you think you will die?

When do you think you are gonna go? If you could pick an age to die what would it be? If you could live forever, would you?

Some think I'm already dead

Chalk it up to wishful thinking . Also, pretty sure Sunbiz took the real Omeletpants out in the parking lot of a Naperville Denny's, and buried the body in the woods near some camp for Christian kids from troubled households, that he could abuse without consequence.

Ideally, I'd like to live 25 years in retirement. This should be ample amount of time to enjoy the money I worked my whole life for, watch my kids and grandkids grow and travel. So, I'd be good with dying anytime after 85.

Depends on how technology advances.... I mean if they invent shit where I can move my consciousness to a robot body or a clone body.... I might stick around a few hundred years until fisch eventually gets me.

The other day I had an endoscopy done.
When they drugged to knock me out I remember staring into a poster on the wall and then I woke up when the procedure was done.
I don't remember getting drowsy or anything of that sort.
Kinda like falling asleep I guess. You don't know you've slept until you awake, right?
I wonder if that's how dying will be... Like you really don't know that you're dead.

I hope you don't mind me asking, I know you mentioned AR in another thread. Did they see anything, damage to the eso****us or other issues resulting from AR?

I didn't hear back regarding the biopsy yet.
But he said just from looking it seemed okay except there were red spots on stomach wall likely inflamation or maybe h pylori.
Need results of biopsy for that.
I asked about damage to esophogus (barret's synsdrom) he said no.

Do you guys think age reversal will really be possible in the future?
Will it then remove the need for children?

I've had an occasional bout of AR. I love coffee and beer, sadly for me those are what will trigger the flare ups.

Yeah, coffee, alcohol, carbonated drinks, chocolate, spicy food.... just about everything that I like, too.
I've completely cut them out for now hoping that maybe in a couple more months I can have a glass of whiskey.

I have always said I wanted to make it to 100. I think with medical science advancing as quickly as it is that by the time I am getting up there it will be a possibility.

but I am certainly going to have to have the micro scrubbers clean out the system a time or two!

Only thing with living over 80 is retirement fund.
Right now I have a plan of retiring at 60 and living off of my funds til 80.
But if living to 100 is around the corner it screws up my whole retirement plan...

You might have to knock off a bank or something...

I'll be happy if I reach 70. Not to keen to go beyond, considering my family history.

I'm thinking another dozen summers, but I don't want to leave my wife alone. My greatest worry at this stage.

There are a handful of factors that influence aging. It's really a matter of targeting those(which sounds really simple, but is actually really really difficult).

I think it's more likely we'll see extended life spans from reduced effects or amelioration of age-related deterioration(e.g. shortening telomeres), but we could see reversal as well.

When you combat aging, then we get to some moral questions as well. Do we want to live that long? Do we want to be immortal? What's the point of having kids, then? Etc.
