    Then nobody takes care of you once you turn 85 and you shit yourself every time you fart.

    I don’t want to have kids, but let’s not pretend it is paradise. I see what my father does for my grandparents, and I couldn’t remotely imagine what they would do without him.

    So yeha, if you want to live until you’re very old, it won’t be a fun ride. Your only alternative is to be rich and hire nurses that do whatever you need, and hope they won’t take advantage.

        You’re assuming you’ll reach 85 in perfect health conditions. Do you know what dementia is? Please tell me how you’d care for yourself if you got dementia at 75.
