The only thing that matter now, is to frantically build finances to where you can afford the indefinite life extension therapies through genetics and medicine which are on the brink of becoming a reality any day.

At first the rich will live, while the poor continue to die and have offspring. These children must desperately try to reach upper echelon status in society which will be the only way to have enough money to stay alive. One possible effect would be a very unstable society where sheer egoism will rule. Crime rates skyrocket and world finances plummet. Nobody willing to risk money or spend.

Or will poor people not even mount a fight and just accept fate. Of cause this is only relevant for our current generations as the future generations will have all this handed to them.

The meds aren't working, friend. Time to reevaluate.

All Getbiggers will survive due to their superior intelligence and fighting abilities.

Rest will die off.

Who would want to live forever, would be fucking boring, especially as later on you're still just going to be a vessel for drugs and treatments which keep you alive, nothing more. Euthanasia should be encouraged for old people who are entirely dependent, maybe give a cash bonus to family. It would save on massive healthcare costs.

Don't know that you'd have to encourage it; just make it an option.

My dad told me to put a pillow on his face Jack Nicholson style if he is ever a vegetable or being kept alive and just shitting himself and not knowing who anyone is. These people drain public health money so that kids can't get cancer treatment. Even just sitting in a hospital bed costs around €2000/day. God our health system is fucked and run by retards.

Many people feel this way, but smothering would be an absolutely horrible death. The unspoken 2nd Amendment benefit, instant and painless.

Just do it in a hotel, where 1st responders can witness/handle the mess. They're prepared for stuff like this.

I visited with a 104 yo woman.

She was ready to go, said she was just waiting for God to take her.

No matter what drugs you take your body will fail you. Medicine is not magic.

Of course, but it will undoubtedly drag you through years of suffering and uselessness first.

Provided someone doesn't do you in first, my old friend.

That's what I'm saying brother.

Living forever only looks good on paper.

People have a hard time accepting that death is a part of life. The estimate is that 120 billion humans have lived on earth since the dawn of humans, we are at 7 billion now, if even a small amount could be kept alive for too long (150-200 years never mind eternity) the earth would clog up pretty soon and life would be shit for everyone.

Fuck 120,000,000,000.

This is personal.

If there was no death and life was infinite then where is the motivation to achieve marriage, children, grandchildren and financial and health security within our biblically allocated 3 score years and 10 ?

If we all lived for ever we would be demotivated to do anything.  With the sands of old father time falling thru that hourglass we are driven to put our short time available to good use.

You talking about death or Socialism?

Can you imagine people from Victorian England watching Jersey Shore or Made in Chelsea?  ;D

I'm 30 and I feel like punching all these dickheads in skinny jeans with asses that go halfway to the back of the knees, if I lived to be 200 I'd have about 100 fashion trends that would make me a serial killer.

Also, the accumulated wealth of old old people would become disgusting. There would be such ridiculous inequality as 400 year old trillionaires would be competing with 30 year olds to get houses.
