Yeah I think you have the move the age up to about 48 and then you’ll get some real debate

Avicci just died at 28 as have many other stars in their 20s and early 30s.


Literally zero people in their early 30s died at 28.

I would never want to be famous, nevertheless 20 when I died, so give me the later.

Would you rather die young and famous and live on in many peoples' memory or die old and be forgotten?

I gather he is a DJ...maybe i’m not up to date on what a DJ does.


Did he DJ for someone famous or something. Doesn’t a DJ essentially just play other people’s music?


Can’t be, right? I mean, everyone’s cool stepdad was a DJ for dance parties when I was a kid and all they did was play Boyz 2 men and “the Train”

Another profound question. To live on for centuries, have history remember you (presumably, kindly). To do something notable.

A young man who I have already forgotten his name, the French cop who traded his life for that of hostages. He should live on in the thoughts of us all.

Everyone is eventually forgotten anyway, so why does it matter if you're forgotten sooner?

a better question/discussion would be early 40s i think.
Do you have kids?
If you do (or did, for the sake of this exercise) then every minute more you can live (until they are at least middle-aged) is desirable as a parent.

I (we, no pics) had our first kid (both of us) at age 27 so I can’t know what not having kids is like in my early 40s.

Famous dudes off themselves or OD at a pretty high rate, so I’d be happy living to be an old happy middle class dude.
