Just for fun... I was wondering what some of you thought about this prospect.

Very nice question!
As a Sasquatch of just over 700 years, yeah, I could go another 700! Providing I am not caught and subjected to those horrible experiments I have heard about!
Being an Ol' Sasquatch has it's down side as well as some nice benefits!
Some of the benefits - I know the real truth about history and you would not believe it! I've met Abe and was there when Davey Crocket kild a bar on this tree. Taught Davey a little about spellin' I did! (Sasquatches are not real great at spelling, but we manage)!
The flip side ... While knowledge is Power on your side of the fence, it ain't worth nothing if you can't use it! True knowledge (other than knowing how to survive in the woodlands) does not help a Sasquatch out much.
Yeah, my speling has improved slightly, it is far from perfect!
We generally do not have a health plan so when I get aches I can't do much about it! Birch bark and a little wintergreen helps a bit but not that much. Hard to get underneath all this hair, you know?
Anyway, I'm babbling like a brook here.
So, yeah! A long life has it's rewards. Wouldn't change a day of those I've been given.
Adding more to what I've had? Yeah, I'd like that! But it ain't up to me! If The Creator wants me here on Earth for another day, that's His choice. I'll take what i'm offered!
Thanks for the opportunity!
The OL' Sasquatch Ü

Have you seen Tuck Everlasting?
Living up to 150 years would somehow be like that to me.
Sure it would be nice to have a healthy, happy life for that long; but if the world would be just like now, then no thanks.
If the world would be a better place, then why not?
Still, I would kind of get bored with seeing the same world for 150 years; plus I would be "older than most".. :p

Absolutely! I think that many wonderful things will be discovered, explored and found in the next 150 years that I would love to be around to see it all. (I believe the good will outweigh the bad).

Hell No because think of how quickly the body begins to go downhill after 60, then 70.... can you imagine how uncomfortable and feeble you'd be by 150???

There is a real example of 120 years. But why to live expecting someones help even to get up, sit etc.

If I could be sure that I would be in good health I would love to live to 150 I think...It would be a great way to see my grandchildren and great grandchildren grow up...

Yes: If I had alot of money, had friends that wern't dead, and I was pretty healthy, sure why not?
No: I am very sick can't even walk by myself, all of my friends were dead, and I was poor, I would have no intrest in living.

If you are healthy and wealthy why not. But if your not wealthy, are you going to be prepared to work another 60 years.

Only if it took that long for me to feel happy leaving this world.
