If it was going to be relatively soon -- say, within the next couple of years -- then yes, I'd want to know.
I'd want to make sure all my affairs were in order, and that I had a chance to tie up any loose ends with friends, acquaintances, relatives, and so on.
Otherwise, no, I wouldn't.
I guess the best thing to do is to try to live for the moment as much as possible -- and know that any of us could go at any time.
Take nothing for granted -- especially life!

Why, what difference could that possibly make to me. When I die.. I'll be dead.. no big thing. Plus looking into the future is rubbish. Just because some wise men could predict eclipses and sucked the local king into thinking that they were seers doesn't mean that we still have to indulge in that kind of ignorance.

I'd love to know. I'd relieve myself of some of these ridiculous obligations that are an everyday part of life and quit trying to
have more and more "stuff". I'm obsessed with "stuff" and it all has to be left behind. I need a cure!
I'd get my affairs in order and make sure I was able to tell everyone how I feel about them. One shouldn't miss saying I love you and then die.

Nope, I just want it to be natural when it comes...no predictions what so ever. If everything was known then there would be no spontaneity and excitement in life. Some things require risk and knowing of the unknown.

No. I would hate to know. I would spend everyday worrying about it. My whole life would consist of waiting for that day and I could not enjoy life until I had prepared myself for death.
I can see the merit in knowing the day of your death. It would allow you to get everything in order and be as prepared as you could get yourself up to that point, but this all relies on being prepared. I hope someday to be able to answer this question differently, but for now I would have to give an emphatic "no."

No.
I went to this deathclock website..
Although It was fictional...
I felt a bit paranoid and wanted to forget the date it showed I would die. I'm glad I forgot.. cause it would haunt my life forever.
It's only fictional..
but it gets to you..
Like what am I going to do that day, or year?

Absolutely. Then I would now when to blow my last dollar on something enjoyable and cozy up to a welcoming receptive person of the opposite sex.

Yes. Would allow me to plan what time I have left better. I'd love to know.
