Realistically with life extension technology how long could I live?

300? 400? 500? 5769?

Born in 1989

23.

Not enough information for valid response. We'll just have to wait and see.

>> No.2501223

you? you're fucked. Your child might if you are rich and pay for the experimental stages. Your grandkids might benefit, again if your kids are rich.


Gotta get that zygote. Too much of a problem after that

as soon as they find a way to repair telemeters, as long as you don't die from other means other than old age, probably infinite (but eventually, something will kill you)

Yes. Lots of people even today are living past 100. See unlike most people I actually watch what I consume.

Probably no more than several hundred years. Cancer will most likely kill you off eventually, and if that doesn't get you then some accident or disaster will.

LifeExtension magazine publishes recent research and findings about various ways to extend life and keep your body healthy.

Of course, they sell the products they discover, so there's always the chance of bullshitting. But they have lots and lots of research to back up their claims.

all pharmaceutical companies sell the drugs they discover and nowadays most drug research is done by the pharma companies themselves, so research from universities is way better than what passes for most prescription drug data

Companies will charge the maximum that the market will bare. However, if something is too expensive your market will be limited to those who can afford it. If your price is too high, then your market will be tiny and quickly saturated. Once your market becomes saturated, it dies and so does your company.

The solution to this problem is to lower the price and enlarge the market. Then you can make larger grosser profit because there'll be more people to sell to.

This is what draws down all prices. The company that figures out how to lower the price makes more profit, so they'll all be spending huge amounts of time and money to be the first.

I think beeing immortal is possible after 200 or 300 years

>> No.2503246

Before we talk about long life, you should probably fix the blatant problems that come with age. Namely, cancer and Alzheimer's. In a world with 300 year old's, everyone will have Alzheimer's. I'm happy dieing at 70, thank you.

It's true. These phone charges are sending me to my grave.

130 years if you're lucky.

Biological immortality can only be realistically achieved by genetically modifying future generations and we are at several decades of research and development away from this, if it is at all possible.
