Dude, if this upsets you, consider that there are promising signs we may be able to significantly slow or even reverse aging itself within the next 50 years.
This means that it will have taken humanity 10 or 20 thousand generations, since our origins, to achieve immortality. But you, me, and everyone reading this is going to miss out on that by about 2.
When the scientific discoveries drop in about 50 years, you can expect another 20 years of development, approval, and commercialization. So if you are 10yo now, you will be 80yo taking your first pill. Hopefully that will not be too late for you. Stay in school and don’t do drugs, there, champ!
Alternately it was posited in the late 90s that those of us that will live to 150 are already alive, at 40 years old with current medical technology I’m pretty sure I can make it another 70 years if I take care of myself.
Assuming a continued exponential growth in medical advancement.
The actuality of it though is my 401k is built around a glorious death in the water wars.

I don’t intend to be dead in the bext 50 years.
