I posted once that I was good checking out at 60...

Basically this planet/county ain't shit.... At that point my kids grown. I've kept it real. If I was told in my 60th birthday..2042.... I'd be good with that.. I'd take that walk calm and cooly
 
Idk how i would feel

But if i had the chance to know or not know... i wanna know

Id rather be prepared

Plus if its gonna happen at 60 i dont need to worry about it happening before that at least
 
If I knew when I was clocking out I'd aim to accomplish everything I've still havent gotten around too. Literally just banging out goals cause now there essentially bucket list shit. Definitely most importantly I'd make sure the fam is fully equipped with what they need to be set.

Wouldn’t want to know to be honest unless it was something terminal where you knew based off the docs guesstimation, besides that it would be hard to stay motivated everyday knowing what day etc you’ll be going.

Had this convo not long ago with a coworker since he was having issues and his DR didn’t know what was going on on just yet.. what triggered the worries from him was another coworker that pretty much went in for a MRI for his constant headaches and turned out had a tumor and had to be rushed into surgery, well it was removed but not without damage and then turned around it grew back so he’s terminal now and it’s not looking good.
 
If given the choice, I wouldn’t want to know. If for some reason I did find out, get my affairs in order then chill until the day comes. No traveling, no eating right, no exercise, etc. Just enjoy every day doing jack shit cause I been working my ass off and been worried about too much for too long.
 
Uh I'd prob obsess over it unhealthily.

It's already an inevitable fact I don't want or need to know more unless it can be prevented.

Terrible thread to enter on a Monday morning btw

Are you doing assisted suicide? You'll want to check on any life insurance policies so you don't screw over your family. Some void it
 
60 ain't that far, so I can't say I'd be happy about it, but I'd accept it. I'd probably prioritize traveling more between now and then, but other than that, I wouldn't change much. My family still needs me to be who I am, so I can't just abandon that and do whatever I want because I feel the clock ticking.
 
3/4 of my grandparents died before 50.... My grandfather in my mom's side made it to 80, but he had dementia and Alzheimer's. I never met the other 3 grandparents, they were gone before I was born.

My father checked out around 70
I know he lost a brother early. But I don't keep tabs on that side of the family

3 of my mom's siblings checked out in their 70's as well. And my uncle is still here, but he has dementia now as well.

Just off of family history, I don't think it's in the cards for me to be a vibrant old man.

I'll very likely go early, or suffer for a really long time with dementia. I've always considered 60 a good age to go and still have all my facilities.

Yeah it's morbid.... But it's shit I think about.

family history aside, I just personally don’t understand the perspective and that’s ok.

It seems selfish at minimum. It’s like you don’t care how your grown children (or any of your loved ones) feel about you checking out and how that would affect them from day to day. But atleast, they’re grown

There’s been a lot of progress on Alzheimer’s treatments so you might be ok by then.
