Calculate Your Life Expectancy
 

This is neat! Be honest, take note, then go back and change the things that you can control and see the difference. It's a real eye opener!

This is a calculator that estimates your life expectancy.
It was developed by Northwestern Mutual Life.
It's interesting that there are only 13 questions.
Yet, they can predict how long you're likely to live .

OK, according to this calculator I'm living to 91. Hope my money lasts that long, and at least 30 of those years better be spent in TV!

That was cool - estimate 97 years!!! Lots more time left here in TV.

Ooops, 94 here! Money will never last that long! Oh well, maybe I can hang out in one of the tunnels here in TV!:highfive:

Thanks Indy. I got 97 and it sure perked up my day!

Indy-Guy:

Thank you so very much for posting this. I got a 93.

The exect age that my mom passed away at.

As they say in sports,"I'm signing up for this deal right now". :)

Mine said 55.......and I'm 58!!! :22yikes:

:1rotfl:

Just kiddin', just kiddin' - it actually came up with 85. I'll take it!

You are a funny dude: :a20:

93
 

I got 93. My mom is 85, dad was 86, my grandmothers where 86 and 93 and I have a second cousin who just passed away well into her 90's.

I think my odds of living a long time are good. Now I just need to get to the Villages.

Ditto

Hmmm...I got 95. Not sure whether that is good or not. I've judged my money to last till 90 with a comfortable life style......I don't really want to give up moving to TV just so I can live to be 95 with enough money. Maybe I to will just move into one of the cart tunnels when money runs out....oh an money lasting to 90 was before markets crashed last week and probably tomorrow....:cryin2:

Wow. 91. Can I get that in writing?

80 years old. Went back and tried again with no drinking=87. I guess you lose 7 years if you are a drinker of alcohol.

I note from om posters that their life expectancy ranged from 85 to 97. Mine was 91. Hope when i reac that peak I can remember who you are when we are playing golf :D

I guess I can buy some green bananas now.

This was a very helpful tool. Originally I was in the high 80s. With the current state of my 401k, Social Sec, etc. I simply cannot afford that. It appears that not wearing my seat belt, upping my drinking and taking up smoking gets me back to a place where I will not run out of money. It may even be more fun :D

Reminds me of the joke, "I'll never forget what's his name". :)

:1rotfl:

:BigApplause: I love it. I'd suggest keep on wearing the seat belt, forget smoking but up the drinking and partying. You will not only not outlive your money, but have a blast doing it. Go for it!

Wasn't it Frank Sinatra who said "I feel sorry for people who don't drink. They wake up in the morning and that is the best they are going to feel all day."

Longevity partially based on heredity
 

On the long lived side...my dad is 81, and he's still going pretty strong...his 2 older brothers are 91 and 89. My paternal grandparents lived to be 93 and 91,

On the short lived side...my mom passed away at 67 (lots of health issues, but her ultimate cause of death was congestive heart failure). Her father died at 47 (cancer). Her mom died at 72. My mom's sisters died at 22 (kidney failure) and 74 (cancer).

So I guess for me it's a crap shoot ... :(

:a20:

Insurance
 

It suggested I buy as much life insurance as I can get tomorrow. :posting:

Ha-ha!! :D

List me as the beneficiary, would ya?? :thumbup:

Bill :)

OMG. Mine said 99. I need to get back to climbing the corporate ladder in a high-pressure job.

No wait. If I do, my life expectancy will nosedive and I won't need a high pressure job. :shrug:

Any more room under those tunnels?

99 is just too old, have a couple drinks and relax.

Wow. I should live to 89!

I'm a wannabee and was nervous taking this test as figuring maybe I wouldn't make it down to tv as my house is still on the market, But I got a 92 and now my blood pressure is down and stress is gone.
I can't wait to come down and be part of you fine people

86! gosh I hope so. Lots of time to enjoy family and the Villages. :a040:

94! At the rate I am shrinking, I will be able to sit in a high chair and car seat! :laugh:

i got a 95....not too shabby!

I got 99! That would give me another 29 years. It seems like a long time but the years go by fast.

The world's longest lived person, Jeanne Calment, lived to be 122 and 164 days. That means I would have to live about another 52 1/2 years to break the world's longevity record. What the heck, I think I'll go for it! :loco:

Training begins right after lunch and I plan on going the distance. :boxing2:

I think I broke it!
 

mine came back 'condolences on your passing' :loco:

ouch!!!!

Funny stuff. :1rotfl:
