    Both sides of my family tend to live into their late 80's. Several in my Grandparent's generation lived past 100. If my mind holds up like most of theirs have, I hope to see 100 myself. Then again, if God Calls me home tomorrow, that's fine with me also...

    Nope; I am living on and on. Here on earth through my sons and elsewhere by the grace of God. At the age of 50, seventy-five ain't that far off.

    Don't want to know, just hope I live a long, healthy, happy life, and that the last couple few seconds,minutes, or years of my life aren't spent suffering

    i have no interest at what age i die. rather, I'm only concerned with at what my level of health is.

    for example. i would much rather die at 60 with a heart attack having lived every day of my life to the best i could manage. when i wanted a steak, i had a steak, or a cigarette, or a glass of whiskey. having full mobility, use of my organs and limbs. my memory etc. the other side of the coin being living till 70's, 80's or beyond. developing heart failure, kidney failure, dementia, incontinence. needing medications, procedures, treatments, help getting to the toilet(if i make it) and help cleaning up if i don't.

    i would much rather die young and happy than old an infirm. years of being around nursing homes has given me one and only goal in life. i don't want to be in one, or in that shape in general.

    guarantee me that in a contract and I'll sign it tomorrow.

    At what age do you ask this question? How long do your relatives live? What is their health?

    My neighbor's mom had a stroke and was mostly paralyzed. She weighed around 400. She lived in nursing home. For around 10 years years when we visited her, she always asked, " Why can't I just die".

    I guess what I'm trying to say, quality of live beats the hell out of length of life sometimes. I certainly won't say always cause i haven't been there yet.

    I personally will be 70 in March. I have had pains that would put you on the floor crying, (gout). Before I have another really bad and long term attack of gout, I think I had rather be cut loose. Tom

    Personally I would not want to know. When it happens oh well.... I want no pre existing knowledge of it.

    Agreed. My father in law died at age 75 but he was healthy as a horse until the morning came when he simply did not wake up while in his own bed. I don't think I ever saw the man without a cigarette in one hand, a cup of coffee (or something stronger) in the other and a big smile on his face. My own father died at age 65 but during the last ten of those years he was in declining health, the final five years were spent in and out of the hospital and the last year was just agony for him (and all of us).

    I would rather die in good health, wishing for a little more life, than go on in such poor health that death would be a relief.

    You might feel ok about it now but imagine how you would feel as the last days were counting down. I'd rather just take my chances. Knowing the future would be a greater curse than a blessing.

    I am not concerned as much with longevity as I am with having enough warning to fulfill my final wish. I want to crawl into the HVAC ducts of the offices where the Brady Campaign people work, die then stink.
