At 80, you don’t want to be too surprised.

And you don’t want to be like the car-chasing dog who catches one, then can’t do anything with it.

I was almost 70 when I stopped working. I told my financial planner and physician that I plan to have a heathspan of 98-99 and a lifespan of 100.

My physician said that when they started practice patients said they hoped to live to 80. Then 15 years ago patients started talking about living to 90. Now my physician is dealing with people like me.

My financial planner wants me to have a big estate when I die. I want to live well, and have the cheque for my funeral bounce.

(Actually, I am an organ donor. Then my body is going to an academic facility for teaching how to do surgeries. Then they have to dispose of whatever is left.)
