Never really think about it. My dad died of colon cancer at 67. My dad lifted weights and stayed in shape his whole life up until the day he died. Never smoke or drank. His father died of leukemia at 57. My grandfather on my mom's side died at 76. I never have drank, smoked , dipped, did drugs, etc. I'm 51 and run everyday and work out about an hour. Eat pretty decent. No fried food. That being said I'll probably drop dead at 60 while some unhealthy 350 pound redneck will live to be 85.

Passed it 11 years ago. No big deal. I owe it all to clean living.

All the unvaccinated were piled up in the streets dead so I’m guessing they had the shot if they made it through the winter of death

Nope. Went through too much chemo and two stem cell transplants. I've got 10-20 years if the cancer doesnt come back according to my doc. Leukemia is very common for sct patients.

Wouldn’t break my heart if I didn’t.

Since I’m 63 about to turn 64, I’m praying that I’ll see 65.

Looking at grandparents age at death:
59
68
72
99 (still living)
Parents
71
70
Me
49
Statistically 65 sounds plausible, but I had cancer when I was 32 so who knows

Saw it a year ago.

I’m in my late 40s and overweight. Family history of heart issues, cancer and dementia. I don’t feel extremely confident I’ll make 65 - and if I do, the odds are it might not be an awesome ride.

I never thought I would make it past 18. And I thought 25 would definitely be it. Then I thought oh shite I better think about a future. Here I am at 66 1/2 and still kicking in good health so I’m planning for a future career.

Hope. Worry about heart disease

Great grandfather 65
Grandfather 68
Father 53
I’m approaching mid 40’s and don’t expect to see 70 honestly.

No.
I hedge my bets by drinking too much.
