If you had to choose between dying young violently having achieved a lot, or dying old peacefully...?

Question

having achieved nothing more than say "best insurance salesman three years running 89-91", which would you choose.

Let's set the first option as say: dead at 21, car hit by train, artist on the same fame level as Basquiat or singer at the same fame level as Dave Matthews

Answer 1

I would rather live a long life next to my husband and watch my beautiful children grow up and have children of their own. That's all I want.

And btw, I am still chuckling at your avatar dude lol.

Answer 2

Your examples of achievement are shallow.
Tell me "Dead at 21, but cured cancer. Or dead at 21 and invented teleportation."
Then certainly I would like to be known forever, despite my short life.

Answer 3

Live fast, die young , and be a beautiful corpse.
