        I’m 30 now, having a hard time looking at the next 40-50 and thinking I want that. Definitely not 90

          Are you suicidal? Longer life does not mean living as a cripple, we can extend our health if we research more. And exercise and lower calorie diet seems to improve health a lot. A 70 year old who exercises and eats lightly will be healthier than a 30yr who eats like an American and drives without walking much.

      My dad died a few days ago. In the last months he told me more than one “I could use three lives to do all that I’m interested in”.

      Because a world in which people live to 80 tend to live well till 65, And a world in which people can live to 120 might open up the possibility of living well to 90.

      Stretching out life expectancies tends to stretch out the length of quality time too.

        I’ve not been enjoying the last 30 all that much, I don’t think I want another 90 or nearly that far even
