Life expectancy: 77.9 years.
Life expectancy in the US will probably go up slighty over the years. Medicine will help it go up but more and more people are also getting cancer and such so it evens out. But it will move up slowly.

Today's life expectancy depends on a number of factors; genetics, lifestyle, nutrition, and the probability of accidental death. The average life expectancy is between 75-80, with women having a slightly higher edge than men. As for the future, as far as the medical profession is concerned, yes, there will be many advances, medications, etc., and hopefully the general use of embryonic stem cells that can not only prolong life, but enhance the quality of it. So I would say significantly more.

Depends on what country you live in.
75-80 is the average of most developed countries.
Life expectancy will increase in the future.

it's definitely possible they'll be 93 years old in 2100 and people live to 93.
