Poll: When do you expect to die (decades)

[spectrenihlus]

The average rate for death right now is basically late 80's. When do you think you are going to kick the bucket?Personally I expect to live well it to my centennial years, what about you?

you know I'd actually rather not think about that

Singularity hits sometime in the 2030s, we all live forever as immortal supermen.

Or I just get frozen, and woken up a thousand years in the future.

Or medical technology starts advancing fast enough that we reach "escape velocity", and everything's fine.

Plenty of ways to live forever. Failing that, take up BASE jumping at 50.

I answered 'other', as I'll probably die in my mid-30's with my current lifestyle.

Believe me, lifestyles don't kill as fast as they allegedly do.

As for me, huh, I think I've got a few decades left. I'm going to answer "other", however, because my honest answer would be "Before I get too bored, hopefully."

I will live to see 200 years old. I know it! I can do it. Starting from today, I am doing everything in my power to live to see that age. While I could cryogenically freeze myself, I do actually want to live in the interveening time

I give myself a couple more years before I die from consumption.

I died at 45 in 1891

I was considering the amount of death threats I get monthly as well. Counting that, 36 is being generous, really.

 

[wintercoat]

I'm expecting to die in my early to late 70's, though knowing my luck, I'll be lucky to reach 65.

 

[smithy_2045]

Never. I'll live forever.

 

[Kae]

Heh, considering how stupid I am and in how much trouble I get sometimes, I probably won't make it past 25, then again I've somehow managed to survive for 21 years now, which is rather impressive considering how many times I almost died in some stupid way but got lucky, now that I think about it, with my luck I'm probably going to be the first immortal man.

Hey, that's quite nice attitude ! :]
I hope i'll die before i'm old enough to be dependable on others. Late 70's would be ok.

After decades of research and testing, we will finally be transformed into beings of pure light.

Go team.

Not exactly what we will be after of course, but, in the ballpark.

So, we'll keep testing and maybe someday we'll achieve man's ultimate dream, to evolve into pillars of pure salt.

Can't wait.

So salty.

 

[Heronblade]

Lets just say I have zero interest in growing old and leave it at that.

 

[Broady Brio]

80's. Assuming technology doesn't advance from this point forward.
90's. If technology does.

The life expectancy at birth for my age group is 71 for males, so '70's seems like a good guess. Not sure why it isn't included in the poll. Of course, now that I've survived childhood diseases, my life expectancy is probably a bit over 71, but still in the 70's I'd guess.

I don't know where/when the OP is from, but in the U.S. the average life expectancy at birth has never topped 80 (currently at 77.something).

That's what the data say, anyway.
