Most airline pilots end of dying at around 73 in a study I saw.

Perfect!

Well, maybe a couple years short of ideal. I don't know about anyone else here but I do not have much interest in living past 80. I'm younger than most on this forum, for sure, but I've worked with elderly patients, I have grandparents living and deceased, and I just do not think I'd like life after 80 or so, and especially 90. What's there to do? Sit around and think about all the thing's I'd done up to that point, that I am no longer able to do. I guess that whole thing I just wrote sounds more pessimistic than I really am.



Wish not so much to live long as to live well.
