My best guess is I'd likely get bored with living at age 500 and be ready to check out. But I'm in my 60s and am excited every day to get up and work on my various projects, and follow lots of events in the world.

Being alive is glorious.

I wish you another productive 40, in good shape and health. Ok, another 60 healthy productive years so you live till you’re 120. Would you want more than that? Im 40 and am looking to expire at 70 or 80 (if I make it of course). Is there something wrong with me to expect that? I find the thought about death in old age somewhat comforting as if there is an end to all this movement and that is the exit. Im not afraid either.

Thanks for the kind words. Yes, I'd like to live beyond 120. But absent a medical revolution, that isn't going to be.

If my body has failed to the point where I can no longer do the things I enjoy, and there was no hope of improvement, I'd probably rather check out.

In the meantime, I intend to work until they carry me out in a box. I have no interest in puttering about in the garden :-/ and playing bingo. Ugh.

You're going to be on the tail end of the age scale, but I suspect if you keep extremely healthy and try out any new treatments and relevant supplements as soon as you can get them, you'll still be able to participate in longevity escape velocity.

I have been looking into "The End of Alzheimers" book. It's recommendations are simply healthy living.
