What's the point of living an extra few years either? I'd rather die at 70 after having lived a healthy life, than 80 and suffered the last 10 years

- landemva 3y agoYour body, your choice.
- zerodensity 3y agoYou say that now. I bet you are going to be dancing by a different tune at 70.
- sonicshadow 3y agoThink you're intentionally misreading what I'm saying, thanks for that
- zerodensity 3y agoAm I? I think not. You are saying that you would rather live a shorter time in good health than a longer time being unhealthy at the end. I am saying that the day will come when you start to deteriorate, get aches, getting slower, maybe even critically ill. During all that you will most likely still not want to die. People suffer in every age group most of them don't want to die. Why do you think you would?
- sonicshadow 3y agoIt seems like you know me better than i do!
- yCombLinks 3y agoIt seems like you're a poor communicator, because that's the only reasonable way to interpret your comment.

- ffhhttt 3y agoIt was actually sarcasm?
- wizofaus 3y agoI'm fairly sure in countries where the life expectancy is lower you're more likely to suffer in your final years.
- rjh29 3y agoA larger percentage of people are dying young. It's an average...
- YetAnotherNick 3y agoI think suffering is based on life expectancy and not fixed. Life expectancy was 50 years not a long back, but still people suffered last 5 years or so of their life.
- Loocid 3y agoWhy do you assume you'll suffer from 70-80?
- mr_toad 3y agoLow life average life expectancy is usually caused by people dying young. Gun violence, automobile accidents, obesity, an opioid epidemic…
- afterburner 3y agoJust moves the suffering years to 60-70.
