Have you ever been asked on a survey how long you expect to live?

Of course anything unexpected could happen, but based on genes, and being pretty heads up on my health I said 94. This is the second or third time I was asked a question like this in a survey. It does make you contemplate your own mortality. 94 is a long life, but I have less than 30 years to live.. If you want to answer how long do you expect to live?

Yes, I’ve been asked that a couple of times in a survey before. I’m guessing 11 more years. I don’t remember what I put on that question in the survey though.

I have never been asked, I am not sure what I would answer, I think that 85 would be a good guess. That means 10 more years.

I would be a little freaked out if I thought I was only going to live 10 more years.

@snowy22315 - May be I will live longer, but I am not sure I want to live as long as my Mom did, 96 it's a very old age.

I doubt I will live past 80. That's 3 more years. I've never been asked that on a survey.

This was probably my 3rd time being asked that. In a way it is good, as it makes you contemplate your mortality, and maybe make some better choices.

Nope. If there's I won't bother to take it. My life existence depends on how I keep it.

It really isn't the business of someone you don't even know.
