After seeing what happened to my parents I have considered hiring something to take me out at 75 quickly.
But my motto is "I am telling you, I'm not going".
That being said, I would prefer just not to get "infirm" and I refuse to believe that I have to. Both of my parents succumbed to the "medical state." My dad was taken out by cholesterol drugs and poor health advice and my mom died of drug side effects, drugs that were straight up NOT necessary.
But even they made it to a ripe old age without getting unable to do things. Dad was ok until he was like 75 and mom was ok honestly until 6 weeks before she passed at 82.
To me my life will get easy at 60, when I will qualify for my pension and also, be able to retire.
