How old do you honestly expect yourself to live to be?

Question

And so how much longer do you think you have to live?
Just curious.
I reckon 120-150 and I've got about 110 or so left.
But I'm an optimist.

Answer 1

Hopefully. old enough to overcome my fear of death.

Answer 2

I've already "Lived" a few lifetimes, even in moments, and have no proof that life ends, other than in the immediate, physical sense. The process however shouldn't be spent dwelling on any end time, but savoring the real time, while it lasts.

With no offense and an obvious declaration of being YOUNG, perhaps you occasionally feel 10 feet tall and bullet proof. I do as well, and I've been around longer than I will be.

Also again, with no offense; optimism, may cause carelessness, or even apathy, and as you might muse about 120 candles on some birthday cake while crossing a street, you might be dismissed by a fast moving bus?

Answer 3

I should think that I'll live to be about 68. Mam died at 65, Dad died at 71 and I can't think of anyone in my family who made it to 80. However, I would like to live until I'm 115 but only if I'm still able to write or type. I want to get into the Guiness Book of Records as the person who's kept a diary the longest. I've been going for 26 years, one month and two days so far. If I make it to 1st January 2081, I'll have kept it for exactly 100 years, I'd glady die on 2nd January 2081.

Answer 4

Watch this: I don't think living for a long time is just wonderful. I think that God puts some people here for a long time for two reasons, they are perfect examples of living life on Earth, and to watch someone do what there attended purpose was, the latter the bad part. I think I was put here to get something done, inspire a few poeple, and be on my way. God promises 72 years for the honest, and loving people. Long life is a blessing, and I would want to live life to the fullest. SO....

I am a 21 year old married man, with a daughter. +2 years

I am a black male and the block is hot and full of cops
who want me to stop,... breathing that is. - 5 years

I work hard, play harder, and laugh everyday, + 4 years

I will say 73 years.

Answer 5

im 21. I smoke and drink but am starting to cut down, now is the time! Im becoming more active and healthy so i can live longer. In the future i want kids etc, I want to travel, i want to do so many things, i need a long life!
With family history etc, 70, maybe older. I want it to be longer. Live forever!

Answer 6

Well considering i have inheritted all the minor genetic conditions that affect my family (foot problrms, myopia, arthritus,hayfever etc) i will probably die from a combination of heart disease, cancer and lung problems. So i reckon i may have another 20 years but not much more

Answer 8

well i don't smoke or drink, i walk as much as i can and eat a balanced diet, so i'd predict up to 80 or 90. if i ever reach 100 or past that, then i'd be very lucky. btw, i turned 26 today on the 3rd february

Answer 9

I truly expect to live to 60.
I have been diagnosed with cancer but I beleive that very soon a cure will come out or at least a way to control it.
I live every day with hope and if I get to 60, I will be well pleased.
Love to everyone on chemo. at the mo. xxxxx

Answer 11

I think this depends on your age.

When you are young, you tend to think you are going to live for ever - well, you know you won't but you ignore it.

As you get older this belief turns to hope that you'll survive as long as possible.

Older still, you start thinking about your health. If you are healhy, you want live until 100. if your health is poor, you may start to look forward to the end.

Me? 95 would be good (as long as I'm healthy).
