I wish to live for as long as I wish to, in good health and without being a burden to anyone. Immortality would be great.
But if I really could choose a number, I would choose 120 years old. That way, I could be witness to a century of changes.
The first twenty years of my life doesn't count as I was still a self-centred young adult and there was absolutely nothing and nobody more important than myself. Hence the next 100 years for me to appreciate the world and its continual changes.

Maybe not in years but to live a life that is full, happy and productive doing something I love and giving back to the world...and in the end leaving it a better place than I found it. Since I am not doing something that I love for a living (tho I do volunteer for hospice...now that I love!) I think I will be living for awhile till I do! LOL

I cannot give you a certain year but as long as I am still healthy, my mental state is good and can do my things by my self and do not need anybodie's help till that time I want to live because I do want to get old and wait for people to help me

I want to live until I'm at least one hundred and something.. everyday alive would be a bonus.
Why, because nobody ever really wants to die. It is something that is far off in the back of your mind and the longer you think you are going to live, the further off death seems to be..

If the time is good quality relaxed fun time, then I think 100 years would be good.
If its painful stressed out bad living with no sex and having bad health or mental issues then kill me now.

I would ask that I live only as long as I have a quality of life that is satisfying to me.

Forever, but I'd like to appear to be 23 years old all the time.
Duh.

120 years.... time span of what is considered a full life time since ancient days.
