How to Live to 120 (https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=353134)

40 years in a nursing home will be fun as long as I can still receive scam calls

If living to 120 means living 30-40 years of your remaining life without Mahomes as the Chiefs QB… I’d be okay with tapping out earlier.

Dude's probably gonna die of a random heart attack next Tuesday.

Prob because he missed 5 minutes of his scheduled sleep.

Deep down I'd like to out live my wife so she doesn't have to die alone. Problem is she's a mix of Native/Mexican and Irish. If the Native/Mexican genes take over her two grandmother's lived beyond 100.

I ain't making that and wouldn't want to.

Yeah, personally I really want to get to retirement age healthy (and after watching some family health issues at that age, have taken some steps to help make that happen), and then wonder how much you can cram into that part of your life... my grandfather traveled all over the world after retirement, then had a relatively short time where he wasn't nearly as mobile and had a couple long stays in hospitals due to relatively simple issues that just took a bit to recover from at his age (and live to 94).

I've heard financial people call it your 'go-go years' when you first retire, then your 'some-go' years, then 'no-go' years.... a decade of no-go currently sounds like a no-go for me, but maybe we'll be watching Mahomes' grandkids winning Super Bowls for the Kansas Chiefs in the International Football League.

Unless we end up in a world like the Jetsons, who the hell wants to live to 120?

If only the good die young, guess I'll live to be 150 or so....Karma. Dad is 88 and was doing fine until he fell and broke his hip and collarbone. Moms been gone for 5 years now and she was the health-nut while dad smokes non-filtered cigs and smokes 2 packs a day for 68 years.

Watch your dad closely. Elderly people breaking a hip is usually a bad sign of things to come. Lot of them die a few years after that

After watching the video I added a few things to my grocery list ,

Now it consists of Broccoli, Cauliflower, ginger, EVO , Keystone Light, Tostitos, cheese dip

With the way things are going in the world and here in the US, the last thing I want to do is live another 60 years.

We need Mahomes to take notice of this guy's regimen so he can play until 50.

This. You can’t fight genetics. Live your life and pray you die in your sleep.

That’s why it’s never too early to get your will and advance directives set up.

Don't drink and don't smoke, still die.

By 95 she was depressed and just wanted to die. The closest people to her in the Senior facility that weren’t living vegetables were in their 70’s that she didn’t have anything in common due to age gap so she felt lonely all the time.

My aunt is about to turn 94.
