What age would be the youngest you think you'd feel ok dying at?

26 Comments

Think of everything you want to do with your life. Now, what's the minimum amount of years it would to take you to live your dreams? Add that to your age, and voila, you have the youngest age you'd feel "OK" dying at!

Maybe you want to marry, have kids, and see them graduate high school. Maybe you want to win a Nobel prize. Maybe you want to have a successful music career and release 5 number 1 albums three years apart. Is there an age you've always wanted to reach before you kick the bucket? Maybe you never want to grow old, and want to die when you still have lots of life in you.

25 or younger 32
35 12
45 8
55 8
65 28
75 or older 52

    Hmm, I'd say at least 800, although probably much older. There's no way I could do all the things I want to do during the length my life will be. Even if I live to be 90, I'll barely have scratched the surface.:/

      I assume you are a young girl and probably even moderately or more attractive. The mistake here is to assume your life will always be like whatever great life you may be currently experiencing as an attractive young female. All the perks, free drinks, free food, easy sex, gifts, presents, free rides, friends, friend with benefits, free air travel, etc etc will disappear once your youth and beauty goes and you'll know what it's like to be an average or ugly male... Am not sure you would still really want to be 90 then...

        Whoa, wait! You're saying that over the course of my life I'm going to go from being a female to a male?D: Why was I not told about this?o_0

        No offence, but you have a pretty shallow outlook, in my opinion. It sounds like you're implying that my life revolves around "easy" sex and getting "free" things, and that when I'm no longer able to have either, life won't be worth living. Wow.

        And you're pretty presumptuous too! I don't know what world you're living in, but I certainly don't live somewhere where people get bloody "free air travel" or whatever!

        Either way, don't act like you know me. The actual reason I wish I could live much longer is because there are so many things that fascinate me. I wish I had the time to learn about them, visit the places I want to visit, explore, etc etc. God, it must be depressing in your little bubble.

    I used to want to die at 30 from a drug OD or freak accident. I wanted to die before I became ugly/ looked old and wanted to have fun in the last moments before my death. Now though I don't bother entertaining the idea.. I don't really care

    The age at which I die at is irrelevant to me. I don't really have any long term goals in life nor do I really see my life going anywhere significant. I just live each day as it comes. If I died tomorrow, I would be fine with that, it would feel like it was the right time for me.

    I don't mind really, as long as i don't end up as some old wrinkled vegetable in my 90's DX Anyway, if you want to be remembered in your prime, it's best to die young.

    It would be the best to die at age 0, so you wouldn't have to face the disappointments in life and cruel reality

    I don't really care when I die, so long as I'm happy with my life when I do.

    The amount of "25 and younger"s is disturbing. I picked 55. Seems my answer isn't popular. I'd ideally like to die before old age diseases affect me.

    Personally I'm kind of okay with dying at any age. I mean as okay as I can be. It sucks but there's nothing anyone can do to stop the fact that their going to die so they might as well try to except that they could die at any time and any age.

    I wish for eternal youth when I think about the awesome cosmic events that will occur after I'm dead.
    But apart from that I'd like somewhere around 25 or 30, 28 probably, doing something fun and thrilling, in the prime of my life and not on a downhill curve. I too don't have any long term goals in my life, just make enough money so that I can complete my bucket list soon.

      I also have the age 28 in my head. It just came randomly.
