*Do You See Old Age As Something Positive?

What if the deal was that you can be 35 again but you can't keep any wealth or friends or wisdom or even memories that you've gained since then?
@UnifiedHeron2 yea her sister who is my great grandmother lived to 98. I knew 4 other of my great grandparents on my mother side of the family who lived into there late 90s aswell. And I had a great uncle who smoked untill 65 and drank all the time and lived to 95 lol. I was born in 94 and I have a glimmer of hope I can see the 2100s and live to 106. Unlikely but it would be cool to see the 1900s 2000s and 2100s in one lifetime

you probably will maybe because of genetics
No. I don't believe that artificially keeping people alive as long as possible is a great route for humanity. Instead of spending trillions of dollars on ostensibly new effective healthcare treatments, we should be focused moreso on a number of other things, for example space exploration.

В разумных пределах уместно, некоторые люди чрезвычайно эффективны в создании полезного продукта для общества. Космос дороже на несколько порядков, побочный эффект оборонки.
Yes old age is a positive thing it means you're closer to heaven and don't have to deal with this system of things that is quite obviously set up by the devil and the beast and those with the mark of the beast and is all in favour of the haters and those in control of the money. Death, bring it on , goodbye cruel world , hate this ugly ridiculous system it's mental and always about the money. xxx edit :but I'm happy to be alive in the garden of eden xxx
