scientific trends indicate that in the next 20-30 yrs, there will be cures to old age. Scientist will invent technology that will extend life to 1000 plus years. If said technology becomes available, and you were to receive it and thus stayed healthy, how long would you want to live ?

As long as I could stay mobile and mentally 'with it' - like anyone else.
Living to be 1000000 but totally 'gagga' is pointless, let alone 100/1000.
I remember the Greek legend where someone as a gift of the gods got 'eternal life' - he didn't specify 'eternally youthful life' and just went on getting older and weaker.
Quality of life is more important than 'quantity'.

I would live forever if I could! but i have to be able to work in the jobs from the future!!
Just imagine... when you are 20, are much more wise than when you were 10. Imagine if you are 1000!!! you could know everything!!!
And wise people is peaceful, so, in a thousand years, there won't be more wars in the world, because most of people will be wise!

I sincerely doubt technology will evolve within 100 years to expand our lifespan to 1000+ years....
But if it could, Id take all the time I could if I was healthy.

Depends on how bad people will look at 1000? Plus wouldn't we be way over populated?

As long as I am able to take care of myself! But who knows?
Ask me in another 10 years when I will be 70 by the Grace of God!

That is a good question! I guess it all depends on if I had a true understanding of my purpose in life and was prepared to live life on purpose with true intentions! You could do that forever ifyou have focus! What about yourself?
