Seriously, I get pissed when people claim they believe any amount of time will be "enough". I say, those people have no fucking imagination. I say, those people should kick off NOW. I plan to live forever, and at some point I'm going to want all those resources they're wasting in their lumbering rush to the grave.
Now that I am in my early 30's Iwant to live forever. If I could do it over I would want to go at about 21 or 22. Damn I would have died a happy man. With no debt. LOL

Got the impression the above was aimed at me. I said I'd be happy with 50, never said that would be enough. For me that is 20 years from now. I'm in no rush to a grave, but there are things like genetics that you can't do much about.
Gone are the good old days when you reached your upper 60s to mid 70s & all you did was have a simple heart attack & died. I install equipment for a lot of senoirs & all I can say is the Golden Years aren't golden at all. Because of modern medicine & drugs, people may be living longer now, but the quality of life hobbling around in a walker just, peeing in a diaper, & staring at the walls all day long doesn't seem like that much fun to me. Heaven forbid you should start to lose your marbles, then you get warehoused in one of those awful nursing home, or as I call them, Gods Waiting Room where your keepers are a bunch of Haitans.
Personally, if I get to the point where I need to go to a home, that's when I'd like to check out. :thumb:

It wasn't aimed at you, but there is a big difference between accepting that you can't do anything about it, versus acting as if you wouldn't choose differently. I'm just one of those people who, given the chance, really would prefer to just live forever. I'm having a great time, and I see no reason to believe it would stop if the biology end didn't mess everything up. I DO know people who claim that they wouldn't want to live forever, given the opportunity. That's a very foreign concept to me.
Although I was being intentionally a bit fascetious, since I know most people were not answering open-ended "Radio-style"... The question was, simply, "how old do you want to live to," and in my case there is no upper limit. Why stop?
