I don't know your medical history, but the AVERAGE person of age, say, 70, may have a better chance of making it to the year 2045 than he thinks. Consider:
Already, labs are growing human organs that can be used for transplants. These won't be transplants with high rejection rates, either, but your OWN organs. Your DNA. Vastly healthier and possibly (depending on the process) much younger than the rest of your body.
Already, laboratories have demonstrated that by surgically connecting a young animal to an older animal, the older animal begins to turn young again. (And the younger animal rapidly ages.) This isn't feasible for humans, of course, but think about what it actually means! By replenishing your BLOOD with with whatever is in a younger person's blood, many effects of aging are reversible! We have to figure out what it is about a younger person's blood and learn to synthesize it, but I think that's doable. There's a lot of promise here.
Already, headway is being made in extending the telomeres in human cells. Telomeres dictate how many times a cell can reproduce, but with each new generation, they become shorter. When they are gone, so are you.
Believe it or not, human head transplants are soon going to be a reality. How long will people live if this happens? You figure it out. How many people die due to failures above the neck? I bet that it's fewer than one in one hundred. Head transplants won't be for everyone. Where will the bodies come from? Growing a body is more difficult than growing an organ. And it would probably need to be an ADULT body... so the process would be time consuming - requiring ten to fifteen years, perhaps.
Lastly, there are technologies that MIGHT materialize in the next twenty years to dramatically extend human life. There is talk of transferring people's minds into machines. Suspended animation could evolve, allowing us to survive until cures for whatever ails us are found.
But none of this is available today, and it all requires that we live long enough to see it happen. There ARE things people can do to improve their chances. Exercise and dropping bad habits are high on the list, of course. The most significant one is probably the most difficult: Going onto a near-starvation diet. Study after study has shown that taking in only enough calories to meet the body's needs would double most people's lives. But that takes extraordinary will power. And if you do it wrong, you'll actually cut your life short.
So, is it really worth giving that a try? Maybe. It depends on the person and his situation, I suppose.

In MY OPINION, and it is important to note that it is only an opinion, I believe the following.
1. The article is likely true as it relates to manual or physical performing of duties, including already the ability to utilize the AI and computerized selecting processes on self ordering machines we find at some fast food chains already.
2. DGP, RIBS, Snapits, myself, ZIM, will not be of this world by that date.... We shall have moved on to the next one long before then I am sure.
3. The living wage thing just got rejected by national vote in Switzerland by a wide margin. Overwhelming in fact, so I am not sure if we will decay as a society that quickly or not.
4... As stated by myself numerous times here before, and on my Bible board, IT is not going to matter as we are at the end of the period known as Laodicea and merely awaiting the Trumpet of GOD to sound and bring this world to a close.
I had the privilege yesterday evening to view and handle many ancient manuscripts dating back to B.C. and also all the Old English translations into Old English as well as the steady progression of the BIBLE from the Dark ages through the 1600's.
Simply awe inspiring. Know what? The BIBLE today (KJV authorized version) is word for word in the first five books of the Bible, the Pentateuch, also known as the Torah...
Same for the BOOK of JOB, and all the rest of the manuscripts because when you have overwhelming amount of manuscript pieces remaining even unto this day, all one need do is simply look at the preponderance of evidence and they can know that they can depend their very eternal soul on it...
WHat a joy I had last evening holding much earlier translations of GODS WORD and those men who were tortured unto death by those who keep the BIBLE from the people (the Roman Church) willingly gave their mortal bodies for the greater glory of allowing the GOSPEL of CHRIST rain down as life giving water to the PEOPLE and let them read and decide whether or not they want to believe.
I cannot be at the convention today due to meetings.
