If you could, would you want to live to be 120?

It's gonna happen soon. Google "Will we likely be able to reverse age soon?" and see what comes up.

And people are seriously underestimating how fast AI will progress the technology so it'll likely be available within 10 to 15 years. And it won't be as expensive as people think it will be. I'd be willing to bet on that. All technology is initially expensive and as time goes by, it gets less and less expensive as well as better. Look at computers, phones, healthcare, military tech, lasers... everything has enhanced and gotten much cheaper. The world's first stem cell burger cost about $325k to make a single patty in 2013. Now it's around $10 a patty. And it'll only get cheaper. And that's only 13 years of difference. It's crazy what can happen in a decade. Landscapes change. Technology advances.

It won't be at the level of just living to 120. We'll be able to reverse age indefinitely. Meaning you'll be in peak physical shape for as long as you want until you want to start aging again and die. Again, for those who don't believe it's gonna happen, all I can say is, I can't wait to say I told you so

If I could also add on to it healthy wealthy and wise and everything mentally and physically keeps working why not

We don't have so much time

And when we pass our spirit still lives and if we have any desires whatsoever on this planet we have to come back and do it all over again

To leave all your desires behind with your body when you pass

No matter what test you get put through do not be afraid do not be scared take it on because you're going to have a challenge and if you're scared of something you're going to have to come back

And you want to pray and Hope if you come back you remember everything that's what the world is doing right now it's Awakening

I would much rather live longer than have to come back and do it again
It gives me more time to find myself my beliefs the answers that I'm looking for

FreyaRed · Accepted Answer

Yes, I don't want fight against my nature.
To survive and to prevail is one of first instincts of life. This instinct is older than neuronal nerve system and Genome exchange due sex. It was probably first program in life forms on Erth created or obtained. [ if 'something damages your cell hull' then 'flee' else 'fight' ] It's the quintessence of life.

Yes… but only if I were still completely healthy, independent, and free to travel and enjoy life the way I wanted to.

I wouldn’t want to live to 120 just for the sake of living longer if I were constantly sick, bedridden, or unable to do things for myself. For me, quality of life would matter more than the number of years..

OlderAndWiser · Answer

Yes, if i still have the energy and desire to chase my wife around the bedroom!

molonski2 · Answer

The only reason anyone would say NO is because they assume poor health or lack of mobility , of course no one wants that..
When you achieve a certain age you loose people along the way , you will see this in your 50s mainly but , if you get beyond 75 and are NOT overweight , you will see a lot more people achieve 100 in good Nik , now 120 is simply an extension , you must however be in good health and your weight needs to be absolutely correct , and I mean absolute , that's for movement..

So , if possible under the above conditions and assuming great physical and mental , then of course your answer would be YES..

The facts are it's all about health and self sufficiency.

aceleon · Answer

never. why would i want such a misearable shit? to see everyone i ever loved die and live to burry them? to watch everything i ever knew change and disappear infront of me? to end up all alone as an old and unhealthy man with no one? to continue to keep suffer from my ocd? watch myself decaying? perhaps even get alzheimer or demantia? or cancer?

EzraIsShy76028 · Answer

HELL TO THE FUCK NO... I'm extremely mentally ill with many mental disorders and I've been unhappy my whole entire life and I've been through several therapists and medications and it helps in an extent but still not enough, the last thing I wanna do is prolong my life. I'm only 25 but in my mind it feels like I've been on this awful planet for at least 100 or more years. If anything I hope I die before I turn 30. I'm already having a shit ton of health problems gradually pop up anyhway.

Telekinetic-Potato · Answer

We might get to see our friends and family make it to that age.

Sure, I'd like to make it to 120 or more. I like seeing the world change. So much stuff I want to do and so little time. I don't think an extra 120 years starting from now would be enough to do it all.

Lliam · Answer

No I wouldn't. Not the way this country is going. I had my fun when there was freedom.
I love my wife and will be lonely and miserable if she goes before I do. And I'll be sad to leave her if I go first.

ProbablyClueless · Answer

I would, assuming that I had a good quality of life. Health span is different from life span.

Nothing is worse than living a long time when you're in constant pain or you're immobilized and lonely because of your health issues.

katiesmuff · Answer

It doesn't seem very feasible to me that the human body can sustain that age and still have any ability to be much more than a chair bound vegetable which isn't life in my book.

AngryCarl3 · Answer

No, I don't like the direction society is taking. I plan to cash in my chips pretty soon. Logically I have to put up with another 20 years of this malarkey, then I'm out.

mrkdvsn · Answer

Maybe yes, if I could be in reasonably good health. But then again, this assumes that Jesus has not yet returned, and that we have not yet gone too deep into a "Beast System" dictatorship
