Or maybe we see that the quality of life seems to deteriorate after a certain age. My goal was 70. Neither parent lived past 72. I think I can beat that now so I set my goal at 80. When I reach 80 I will see if I think another 10 years of good living is going to be achievable and then I will shoot for 90.

Whatever I choose does not matter. The good Lord has already put my name on the wall and will take me when it is my time.
