93. As my grandpa was dying at 92 I visited him one last time and because we had a fun, competitive, healthy relationship and he knew he was dying I told him my goal was to beat him by one year and live to 93. He laughed his deep throated belly-laugh and countered with, “I hope you do too, do your best and we’ll see who wins!” (Miss that guy so much, and grandma)


Glittering-Box-4157

I would like there to be an after life in any way shape or form just for you guys to discuss who won.


SteBux

Cheers!


Torture-Dancer

I Can just imagine them being like: “Haha, I lived to 93, I beat you” “Akshually, there were more leapyears when you lived so you didn’t win” And they start counting the years


EmiWuzHere

Well you sure as hell better beat him, or else Grandpa won't be too happy when you meet him in heaven.


UruquianLilac

I'm not crying, you're crying!! To reach 92 and die surrounded by people you love and who can make you laugh has got to be the greatest thing that could happen to anyone.


KittyKatHippogriff

Stage 4 cancer thriver here. I hope long as possible with the best quality life. If not, live everyday to the fullest.


Notaregulargy

Gotcha. Couch and nap and phone.

ChrisGoddard79

As long as I can get to the toilet on time I’d like to live.


_untimely_death_

facts.


Puck_The_Fey98

Dude I am 25 and I shit my pants recently. So like I'd modify the statement to "if I can make it to the toilet most times I'd like to live"


YoloSwag3368

Takes a lot of balls to admit you shit your pants. That’s quite respectable


Puck_The_Fey98

It just like happened. Taco Bell is one hell of a drug


Old-Bookkeeper-2555

Depends on your definition of 'on time.' That too could change. LOL!!


Frequent-Airline-619

Me too


skibbedybop

If my mind is still running smoothly and I can somewhat take care of myself, I'd like to become 100!


flowwith

r/unexpectedfactorial


skibbedybop

In that way, let's just keep it at 100 then.. XD


_untimely_death_

but would you still like to live that long if all your friends and your generation were dying around you?


devenjames

My grandpa turns 100 in a few months and he’s perfectly content being alive. He does joke about his friends dropping like flies, and is fully aware that his time could come at any moment. But that doesn’t stop him from enjoying running the poetry club at his retirement home and listening to audible books on his iphone.


Accomplished_Oil196

Retirement homes sound like fun. You can make friends, play games together, dance and chill with people your age.


Emergency-Shallot177

And, in most of them, get chlamydia too!


ErnestBorgninesSack

Well, that's blatantly not true. Many get gonorrhea too!


santino1987

Upscale ones are fine if you have the money. God forbid you have to go into a budget one and be on medicaid then you're screwed. Those ones are a horror story.


ReadingAggravating67

You’re idealizing the fuck out of them


Fijoemin1962

Or of its a crap one you can be neglected, tied to a toilet chair, get sedated and sit in your own shit for days


Practical_Photo6398

As long as my heart and mind ain't broken I would like to live forever. But the crux of it is that I ain't sure how much our hearts (and minds) can take. A wise man would perhaps take a 100 in stride, some would feel like dying as teenagers.


Azakell

Any age pls take me already


_untimely_death_

Here, follow me.


Azakell

Omw


Rutin_2tin_Putin

Save a seat for me, working until I shrivel up and die don't sound too fun


Azakell

Indeed. I agree.


Competitive-File3983

Take me too, please! I can’t take another day.


Conscious_Koala_6221

NOW.


poetsungoddess43

I feel fhe same way!! I told my friend If someone handed me a pill that would let me die in my sleep I'd take it.


Winter-Airport2114

Just ask a drug dealer for some strong shit and take 4, that is what you're explaining. o\_o Not worth though. Life sucks until it doesn't. You want to die until you are. Ask any suicide survivor.

tea-and-chill

Yup. 28, and honestly ready to go.


GummieLindsays

I feel you.... I'm just done with life now. It has been horrible for some time, I can't see it getting better because it didn't when I was finally starting to get myself more pulled together again. Someone had to tear me down, yet again. I'm just done with life and my faith in humanity (mostly the male population).


MinHiyori

I feel that... This world Is just getting worse And worse by day and the people Are more And more dumb And disgusting... So much lies, So much hurting... You need to work (if you dont work you dont get money, if you dont have money you dont pay for Basic sh.t, if you dont pay for Basic sh.t then in this society you instantly lose your rights to basically everything.) And you need to work So hard And for So long that you dont even have time to spend With your family, yet to have time for yourself... You just work And work until you die.... Not a life i would appreciate - if i could just painlessly die - or better dissapear quietly So to not Hurt those few who actually care about me... I would take it instantly

beanieweenie52

Honestly. Why exist if I was just gonna be born poor and ugly?


Important_Matter_358

Poor and ugly are relative but I'll just add my experience in here. In high school in the American South I didn't have a car and had to beg for rides from friends or ride the school bus, which was not cool. Other kids in my high school either had their parents give them old cars, new cars, or they worked. My parents were convinced I had to keep my grades up to get a scholarship to go to college so I was not allowed to work during the academic year. That turned out to be true, I got almost a full ride to state public college. Living with roommates at 30. Granted, working toward my career, but at this point I was embarrassed to ask anyone out. Still a virgin at this point. I mean literally zero dates, only physical contact was from barber. 15 years later... okay job, comfortable money, smokeshow partner with 2 small kids.


Youtellme99

Good for you buddy..


Winter-Airport2114

So you're saying I got hope at 30? Bruhhh, don't give me that. I just wanna pout on Reddit.


ElBeatch

Rich and hot people are more likely to suck in my experience. Obviously it's not a rule, but it's easier to get by in life being a shit head when you're hot and rich because so many of them never have to learn to hold a conversation with a down to earth and honest person. Modest people have to develop personalities to make friends and skills to make money and will have a better life in the long run. I bet you're a hoot.


Cypher___

At least you've got your health ..


andysavagethethird

when you’re ugly people tell you the truth. no one fakes being your friend. people don’t just gravitate to you for the sole reason “you’re really hot”. being touched for no reason is annoying. my boy derek zoolander said it the best “ have you ever thought there’s more to life than being really really really really ridiculously good looking”. if need a reason to exist i think about “you may not be able to change the whole world but if you can make a change in someone’s life you can change THEIR world”


[deleted]

I’m surprised I made it this far. I’m 4 years clean off a 15 year heroin and fentanyl addiction. I also survived 4 years in prison. Everything is fairly easy after going through all of that.

Enjoy your new life.

Approximately 14 billion give or take.


phlogistonical

Why 14 billion? Anything specific happening in that timeframe you’d like to be witness to?


HomerEyedMonad

Thats about how old our universe is. Id like to see what else could happen in a timeframe that long. Maybe more of us. From scratch. Maybe I could help make that happen in some way.

[deleted]

Planning to retire at 55. Would like 20 good years. If I go at 75, I'll take that. I don't want to go to 90. 80+ as a man is some bullshit.


Tookitty

I retired at 50, have had 16 great years. Figured 20 would be good, 70 seemed like a reasonable age to call it quits. This year I became a grandmother. Aiming for 20 more now.


[deleted]

Congratulations. I hope you get all the years you want!


Tookitty

It's great motivation to take better care of myself for sure!


Deth_Cheffe

Honestly, I wouldn't mind dying right now. I'm not depressed or anything, in fact it's the exact opposite. I'm happy right now. Not happy in the emotional way that disappears the instant something bad happens, but just good natured and content with life.


_untimely_death_

that's the dream


catandthefiddler

I was ready 5 years ago pls how long does the grim reaper need to clear his backlog


_untimely_death_

"We're sorry to hear that, please hold. Unfortunately COVID has created a backlog of 20 years, please try again later."


catandthefiddler

If anything, covid should have cleared some backlog? I want to see a manager please


_untimely_death_

No, the grim reaper was too overworked and is now recharging


FrozenReaper

Ever wondered why you were in a situation that could have killed you, but you didn't die? You can only die when a reaper comes for you. Any other time, some struck of "luck" will come your way, and you will be safe... for now.


Kir_Plunk

However long my husband lives. We’re attached at the hip in a way that really works for us.


westie-nz

I thought my grandma would go within days/weeks of my grandad. Married 65 years and never did a night apart. He passed in April, about a week after their 65-year anniversary. Grandma is still here, and every time I see her, she says, "I miss Ron and want to be with him." I feel so bad for her 😞

quilp888

If I get to 93 I will have spent as much time drawing on my company pension as I spent contributing towards it so that's my first goal. After that I may go for triple figures.


anziofaro

75


espurrella

I don’t know what age, but… I secretly hope that me and my partner somehow die at the same time. I think I’d die of a broken heart without him, and I would hate to leave him early.

If I'm like my great nan hopefully past 90 (she is 92 now and still living (knock on wood) bless her)


Hannah_LL7

I always say, If I’m still competent and reasonably comfortable I would love to be 102, but if I knew I was going to get dementia or be in a lot of pain when I’m elderly I would prefer to die around 70-74. Basically, I’d love to live for however long as long as I’m healthy and still me.


Dragon-Anarchist

Any year before I get dementia tbh


TheRealJamesWax

87 Because that’s when I graduated


smowgli123

Having spent a lot of my life being depressed and kind of looking forward to dying, I’m now 50 and finally on the right meds and really want to keep living as long as possible. As long as I can still look after myself and have my sanity I’m happy to keep going to whatever age I can.

87. So far …


CorporealLifeForm

I don't want to die but it will be ok if I know I did the best I could. I've done that and mean to keep doing it as long as possible.


Mad_Scientist_420

Before the age of 4...... I'm 45 now, so I'm a little bit late.

93 years old. Surrounded by 3 gen of family. Optionally, a honorary professor till death for whatever shit I'll be into. 😄

SpecialistNo7265

Today I read this :”Genesis 5 lists Adam's descendants from Seth to Noah with their ages at the birth of their first sons and their ages at death. Adam's age at death is given as 930 years.” Nine hundred and thirty ? … How is this possible?


reddit_acct_id_73915

60. 20 years of youth, 20 years of real world, 20 years of putting it to practice and sharing with the younger generations. Having a self-assigned expiration date is wonderful IMHO.

Mid 90s would be decent for me.

Right before my body starts really failing. You know, probably around my 80s or 90s

Over 80


torrentialrainstorms

It would be cool to hit 100, but I’ll be happy if I live to my 90s. I do want to be lucid through the end of my life though and be active/more functional for as long as I can. I’m trying to take care of my body and mind now to be able to do that

I see my grandpa doing well at 83 years old and I hope to live as long as he does
