Studies have been done showing that people change their minds about how long they want to live as they get older. When they are young they think 75 is real old and they don't want to live any longer than that. Then when they reach age 75 they will change their upper limit to about 80. And if they reach 80 they will say 85 is enough and on and on it goes.
