My Dad died at 38 from a massive heart attack.   Ill be 39 in a few months, anything else is bonus.  Horrible genetics.

 

You could do what Angelina Jolie did when she had a potential faulty parts - had them removed and replaced with synthetic ones.

Also comes in handy at games like BILLS/JAGS & BILLS Cheatriots, the 1st time.

SOME THINGS TO PONDER AS WE AGE

The inventor of the treadmill died at the age of 54
The inventor of gymnastics died at the age of 57
The world bodybuilding champion died at the age of 41
The best soccer player in the world, Maradona, died at the age of 60
And then..
KFC inventor died at 94
Inventor of Nutella brand died at the age of 88
Cigarette maker Winston died at the age of 102
The inventor of opium died at the age of 116 - in an earthquake
Hennessy cognac, Irish inventor, died at 98

How did doctors come to the conclusion that exercise prolongs life?

The rabbit is always jumping, but it lives for only 2 years. The turtle that doesn't exercise at all, lives 400 years.

So …Have a drink ...Take a nap ...
And when you wake up, have bacon and eggs!

Happy New Year.

Mom died at 101yrs, 246 days - Dad at 100yrs, 282 days. Mom had broken her hip or she would likely still be here. At Mom's 100th birthday party one of the guests commented that it was the first 100th birthday party he'd ever been to - told him it was the second one I'd hosted in the past year and a half. At any rate 95 will be just fine, I've seen 100, don't care to make it.

If you live to 100 will you enjoy living that long?

 

I have a number of relatives in 90s who are just waiting for life to end.

 

My Japanese aunt is so frail she cannot leave her home or do anything other than sit.

So quality of life is the key. As stated in my answer, both my parents lived past 100, 95 will be just fine. Both golfed until 92 and had 3ish decent years after that. Who wouldn't sign on the dotted line for that? The last 7 years, well, I just kept telling their North Carolina grandchildren not to come to visit, it isn't how they would want to be remembered.

Kane Tanaka, born in 1903 and world’s oldest person, celebrates 119th birthday in nursing home

 

The longest verified human lifespan is that of Jeanne Calment of France (1875–1997), who lived to age 122 years and 164 days. She supposedly met Vincent van Gogh when she was 12 or 13.[1] She received news media attention in 1985, after turning 110. Subsequent investigation found documentation for Calment's age, beyond any reasonable question, in the records of her native city, Arles, France.[2]More evidence of Calment's lifespan has been produced than for any other supercentenarian, such that her case serves as an archetype in the methodology for verifying the ages of the world's known oldest people.[3][a]
