Default How long would you want to live?

Hypothetical Scenario:

Your god comes to you when you are 18 years old and gives you 2 choices for your life - Which one do you choose?


1. Live a long, uneventful life. You live to at least 80 years old with normal health and no major problems and you get to see your children and grandchildren grow up. You get no other promises from God other than the age of your lifespan i.e. you may still die a painful death or whatever but you'll be guaranteed to at least hit 80. Whatever you try to succeed at in life will only yield mediocre results - you'll be normal no matter how hard you try and even if you try to commit suicide before 80, you will fail at it.

2. Live a short but amazing life. You only live to be 35 years old max but you will live an extraordinary life. God makes no promises how it will be extraordinary i.e. you might be a world class athlete, a prolific inventor, or celeb of some sort but God promises a short life full of experiences that 99% of others never get to have. Whatever you do in life will yield amazing results. You will die in some way before your 35th b-day - it might be painful or it might not be but if you decide to have kids you die before they even graduate.

This is all God tells you. You can't ask him any other probing questions. Make your choice based on only the above info.

I want to go when things start to break. I've seen and known several elderly people (though there was one would kick my ass for calling him elderly). Once your bones start to hurt every morning, it's getting close to checkout time.

I want to go before I become one of those seniors that everyone gets angry about, the slow drivers, the slow walkers, the old person that pulls out a blank checkbook at the Walmart line during the holiday season while there are 40 people standing behind you. Although, I always said I would be the most perverted old man ever, steal shit, "accidentally" rub up against some hot 20 yr old...what are they gonna do, throw you in jail? Just plead senility loss.

I'd rather not know, but I think someone has already chosen No.1 for my life anyway. I average at mediocrity.

Also, 35 to an 18 year old is ancient, probably every one of them would go for the 2nd option.

I would rather have the long uneventful one, but get to have kids and see them grow up. I already have the mediocre success thing going so I would appreciate that more if I actually could get married and have kids. By the time my life works itself out, I'll probably be too old to have any, or if not I expect to die in my 40's like my mom. Then my kid is going to be like me and miss me like crazy and get in a ton of trouble.

Listen, I got something to say...

it's better to burn out than to fade away!




In all seriousness, I was convinced when I was younger that I'd flash and burn and die out before I reached the age of 28. Now I'm almost 36 and although I still feel like there are things I need to or want to accomplish, I also feel that I've done a lot of things that some people will never get to do, and if I die tomorrow, I have no real big regrets about my life. I guess I kind of adjusted to the thought of dying when I was in the Corps and although a lot of my other behaviors from those days are gone, I still am ready to go when it's my time because there's not much you can do about it.

That said, if I was going and didn't like it, I wouldn't be opposed to trying to some with me.

Sorry guys, for those of you that took the 3rd poll option I deleted it and you'll have to vote again.

I realized the 3rd option was stupid to have as the entire point of the poll was to vote for one or the other and not to take a "safe" way out.
