    Makes You Think-A Few Vices Are Good

    Will I Live to see 80?

    Here's something to think about.

    I recently picked a new primary care doctor.

    After two visits and exhaustive Lab tests,

    he said I was doing 'fairly well' for my age.

    (I just turned 60.)
    A little concerned about that comment,

    I couldn't resist asking him,

    'Do you think I'll live to be 80?' He asked,

    'Do you smoke tobacco, or drink beer or wine?'

    'Oh no,' I replied.. 'I'm not doing drugs, either!'
    Then he asked, 'Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?
    'I said, 'Not much... my former doctor said

    that all red meat is very unhealthy!'
    'Do you spend a lot of time in the sun,

    like playing golf, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?'

    'No, I don't,' I said.
    He asked, 'Do you gamble, drive fast cars,

    or have a lot of sex?'
    'No,' I said.

    He looked at me and said,...

    I want to live as long as I can (that I am not a true burden to others) I want my life to have quality and I want to stay around to watch my daughter grow up and future grandchildren but once I get immobile and more of a burden to be around than a pleasure, than I will be ready to go to the everafter

    I want to live forever. Who would want to die when the year 3000 is coming up...? I bet the folks from 1900 would have loved to see 2000. Now you know how I feel...

    Good one.

    I guess it either you lived your life to the fullest but die like 10 years early or live life so you will live till 100 but live a shitty life.

    @1lear

    This is a very unique subject. but i dont think if we can actually live as long as we wish to. wish it was like that. then everybody would have been immortal i guess.
