As in a healthy life. And let's not assume population resource problems. Let's just assume that if life span were extended to whatever length we would expand to other planets or whatever so as not to destroy earth and your loved ones could stay alive with you etc.
 
I'd be quite content with the average. I doubt I'll get there, with my smoking. Honestly, I'd be pretty happy with 70. That's another 30 years.
 
I've done alot, seen alot and left alot. I'm ready for eternal peace. It's gravy now.

Didn't think I'd make it to 38.
 
Well in the OP scenario I would obvioulsy like to live forever. But 78 is fine for me, all things considered.
 
Forever. Heck, i can always kill myself I want anyway!
 
Argh. Keep ***** lingo away from here!

Could you really be that much of a coward?

It kinda ruins Hemingway, Cobain and others (I can't remember the 3rd person that it wrecks a hero for me). They would be far greater having receded into oblivion.
 
Not him, but yes... that's a real shame for such a man.
 
I'd like my death to be of my own, direct, choosing.
I think that curing aging, and preventing death, is something that's best approached with a teamwork model. All the people who want to cure aging, or prevent death (in themselves, or loved ones) should contribute to help make it possible.
 
We all live forever. Influence even unknown, like a pebble in an ocean.
 
I plan to live forever, of course. But barring that, I'd settle for a couple thousand years. Even five hundred would be pretty nice.
