That's the problem with a long life - it's not one in THIS world, your last bit will be in someone else's. Yours will be gone long before you are...

Well that's the most depressing ****ing thing I've read on here in some time.

My Father in Law passed away when he was 65...my mother in law just passed away last year at 85....

While she was a great mother in law...you could see the light in her eyes fade each year she was without him. And each time one of her close friends or family would pass, it would affect her even more.

If not for my kids, her only grandkids, I truly think she would have been lost.

My wife will probably outlive me....just based on the genetics of her mom and her maternal grandma.

I pretty much think...based on my health issues, that my expiration date will probably be around 80...she will probably live another 10 years after that.

The funny thing is that reading the go-go, some-go and no-go comment, I am a bit different. I spent way too much of my working life being on the go...traveling to every state except a couple. I seriously am over getting on a plane to go anywhere these days....I have no desire to unless I am traveling to see a Chiefs Super Bowl in person.

I think I will forever be a some-go person....go where I want some of the time and just freaking relax here in FL never having to shovel snow or drive on ice.

Jumping Jacks and pork

money would run out like 20 years into your retirement unless you are bigredchief

Not if you choose the.right cat food and live in a trailer.

Trailer is always going to get hit buy a tornaughto

Genetics is on my side, which can be good or bad. G-moms-99.5y & 93y, G-pa's 96y & 93, G-aunt/uncles all +90y. My Dad last year at 86y in his sleep. Both sides all live long.

This is good and bad, as many of the above comments have evidenced.

One item I don't think was mentioned, cost of living longer ie. Nursing Homes are not cheap. One of my G-pa's & G-mom's lived in assisted living for 6-10 yrs. He was worth +800k...at death ~200k. I didn't have LTC (Long Term Care).

So, not only was his quality of life diminished (he was wheel chair bound), he watched his legacy diminish as well. His gift was his attitude. He was the President of the KC chapter of the Optimist Club. (actually existed!)

As mentioned, I don't care how long I live as long as I can basically do what I want. Then take me out with #1 in my sleep, #2 on the golf course by a massive myocardial infarction (the 10 yro in me loves that term), Nuptial Bliss as Genghis Khan went on his 7 marriage bed, #4 Cement Truck.

I approve this message!

No, thanks.

I am hoping I take one last trip to DisneyWorld with my kids and their spouses....the night we get back my kids are spending the night. I say good night and thanks them.for this last trip and go to bed that night and and pass peacefully in my sleep.

I don't want to burden my family with a Nursing center....having volunteered at one and seeing how many Seniors are put in one and no one visits, I don't want.that for me or my family.

As long as Im not in pain. I do. Thats alot of Chiefs games.

Yeah but at least here in Florida we are not Tornado Alley
