genetic engineering? ai singularity perhaps? How do you intend to live forever?

  • I only plan for things that are possible so no plan to live forever.

    Having said that, scientists are working on a cure for aging. Even if they sort that out before I die, the treatments will be too expensive for me.

      If you are under 40 and in age appropriate health, you have reasonable chance to benefit from anti-aging therapies. Start prepare 😉

      Most probably they will be expensive af at the beginning. And similar to microwave ovens or mobile phones, they will become very affordable with time (economies of scale, experience curve, competition, expiration of patents). Probably even many countries will subsides them because they will keep people healthy longer (so they could work out be generally productive, rather then costing a lot of money on treatment of chronic diseases).
