Would you study 4 careers, will you pass your life drinking anyway, will you free more free with this extra time?, is this life really to short?, should be us "middle age" when we are 100?, IS the youth and life not passing too fast?

Assuming you aged at a slower rate in proportion to the death i.e when you are 40 you really have the body and mind of a 20 year old, 60 have a 30 year old etc etc I would really like this.
As it stands life is too short and time moves too quickly, I am 27 and it feels like I was only just 19 a couple of years ago and it seems to get faster and faster as I get older.
Before I know it I will be 60.

If I found out now that I would live 200 more minutes, or 200 more years, it would be the same to me.
This is the very meaning of "Live in the moment, not for the moment." Now in an eternity. Focus on now, and you'll be content whether you live 200 more seconds or 200 more years. Your decisions should be based on the fact that they are the right decisions, here and now. When tomorrow comes, you make the best decisions for that moment. As far as long term plans, it wouldn't be any different than now. You can make long term plans for when you're 80, but you're not even guaranteed tomorrow. You make the plans the best you can, and then you live in each moment.

Wait. I think that was Emilio Estevez as Billy the Kid...

That is a very thought provoking question. It would really depend on if my loved ones would also live that long. If so, I would do whatever I could to better society and myself. If not, I really don't want to out live my children (I know that this is somewhat out of my control). If I were to out live my children, I would honestly not be of much worth to society. Is life too short? It seems that way, but it depends on how you live it. I still feel like I am in my youth, but time does go by quickly.

200 years? I'd never want to live that long. I'd be totally decrepit for the last 100, with no one my age to talk to. My closest family relation when I die would be a great-great-grandchild.
Oh, this would be terrible

Life is what you make it, If I could live to be 200, I just hope my body don't fall apart so I could enjoy it to the full! Just think of how much you could accomplish! Life is definitely to short when your enjoying yourself!

Just think, at about 59 you'd be 50 nineteen at 100 you'd just
be middle aged, drawing your pension at around 180.
That would amount to working for about 160 years.
Not for me.

if life was that long, we could probably improve our life, sociably and financially, to a great extent.. but p*ss our great great grandchildren off cos we don't just hurry up and die rather than non-stop gabbling about the good old days when we only had pcs and ipods..
the worlds population would be pretty messed up too..

I do not want to live to the age where I have to depend on someone else to dress me, feed me, and bathe me. I want to live a good, long, healthy life to see my children grow up and be happy but not to the point where I have to have someone wipe my ***!
