It is quite natural that man wants to live long. But there are a few who think life after youth is not worth living. What is your opinion?

Hi vijayanths, The numbers don't matter. I want to live as long as I remain healthy and able to get about. I will be 70 in October and am still going strong. I know that this could suddenly change so I try to make the best of what is still possible.

I'm not really sure how long I want to live. Part of me wants to live fast and die young, but another part want to live longer and adopt kids and have a family.

Hi vijayanths, I am 51 yrs, so I am much wiser than you, ha. Seriously, as long as I am healthy and can walk around, I wouldn't mind living to 90 years. After that I'd be afraid to look in the mirror at what I see. Have a great day!

Hey, Yes u r right that a lot of people dont like to get old and Iam one of them. I want to live a big life, not a long one. The ideal age to die for me would be around 45-50 years. Iam aware that this site have a lot of members who are above this age mark and i have no intention to hurt them. By 45 i want to do a lot of things, c a lot of palces and most importantly do something which will be an example for the next generations to come. I have also heard that great people dont live long. So lets C Cheers, Tutul

hahahaha, thanks for making me understand that Iam not great,lol. It is a good concept that quality is better than quanity, but for me it won't suit to this discussion. You should live a quality life for a loooong period, so live long friend.

For me i am happy to live as long as i can. I prefer to live not more than 80 years old. I don't want to be my children or family's burden when i get old that they say i turned into like a baby traits. I am already happy if i can reach 60 or more than 70 years old.

Well, this question is quite hard to answer. It's because we are not sure we are able to live up to what age. Sometimes, it's depend on our health and also God's will..As for me, if i am able to live up to age around 80 or 90 years, would be quite wonderful and fulfilling for me. At least, i am able to see how is my son and his family live would be in the future. Besides that, i would like to see how is the future world would be..Nice question...

When I was younger I used to say that I have to die when I reached 30 because I don't wanna have wrinkles and I don't want to look like a tree trunk when I die. But as I age, I wanna live as long as I can with the man I love and my future family of course. I want to see my future children graduate from college and have their own family before I die. And...there are a lot of ointments and treatments which prevents skin aging right? As long as you can afford it. =)
