Discussion How many years do you think you have left?

[letsgetout]

Unless I'm really lucky, I feel like I'll probably die at a relatively young age, I'm too hedonistic with low impulse control and get into dangerous situations more often than I should. If cryopreservation works or anti aging meds work, I think I'd live to be a couple hundred years old but thinking about it some more, death is really something great we've been blessed with. I don't think I'd want to have a typical elves lifespan in fantasy, that seems like too long, I'm not anhedonic or suicidal but I'd want an erase button at some point. 100 years (at best) seems a little too short but 500 years seems too long. How long do you think you'll live for? How long do you want to live for?

Billions.

 

[Bojack]

I’ll probably live to be a 100

 

[Matthias8272]

I will cope with escorts and travelling til I get to the age where life becomes miserable and you're in care then do assisted suicide or something, so probably quite old

 

[Latinolooksmaxxer]

more than 1 probably

 

[Schizo Tappy]

I will live until I die of old age, health problems or get killed. What you say is basically fantasy at this time so I don’t think about it

My grandmother lived to 90 (I think) and she would smoke when she was younger. Indeed she died because of cancer. Not sure which one but im guessing lung.

Grandfather lived to 85 I believe and im not sure if he smoked. He also died from cancer but I was very young when it happened, no idea which.

That's just my father's side of the family. I have no idea about my mother's side.

I'm guessing I'm at risk of cancers so I'll avoid stuff that destroys the structural integrity of my DNA. Smoking and going out in the sun too much.

Also they were not particularly active (neither am I for most of my life but i've been trying to make a healthier life for myself activity wise)

I never touch alcohol, I drank a bit after reaching legal drinking age but i decided I will never touch it again. Im part irish so I dont want to become alcoholic.

I already have and know about a few chemicals that are shown to increase lifespan in mice so I'm confident that continuing my scientific knowledge of the area will help.

I honestly think i can extend my prime (feel and look in my 20s) into my 40s or even 50s, Remain strong physical and mental fitness into my 60s and 70s and remain physically and mentally active up to 100. After 100, I'm not sure how well I can maintain my body but who knows how advanced medical technology will become, my current predictions are for current understanding, I'm confident I could extend my life span and health span further than this.

Tbh I would love to be immortal

 

[Mister Fuwy]

50

 

[FloppaFlops]

after gta 6 i can basically die

 

[Mister Fuwy]

50

Hopefully not

 

[radicalrationalist]

i don't think i can bear being 80, something about that number, maybe from my experience knowing and seeing people of that age being insentient, immobile, etc. maybe i'd fare better, but who knows. therefore i think maybe another 10 to 15 years is all i have left

 

[try2beme]

I really need to die

 

[radicalrationalist]

I will live until I die of old age, health problems or get killed. What you say is basically fantasy at this time so I don’t think about it

what i would do to be young again. it's pretty much impossible to convey to a young person what he needs to do, there's just no frame of reference. advice from old people essentially felt like white noise to me. but now having experienced old age, i comprehend their regrets fully. i would work on increasing mortality salience asap

 

[cytoplasm]

minus 10

 

[Htobrother]

Tbh I would love to be immortal

Soul is immortal
