Would you be willing to reduce your life expectancy
 

.........By 10 years to become extremely attractive or famous?

by how much ?

1 year 5 years 10 years ?

By 10 years, its in the first post

sure why not 30 great years is better then 40 average years :)

The last ten years are the worst.

Also, the older you get, the more time flies.

No, but I might be wiling to give up 10 years to not be famous if I was for some reason...

Fucking drunken guys-gals, and numbers, fuck it :1orglaugh:thumbsup

I guess it would depend. Would this fame come with money? Fame without cash would be miserable.

If it came with money it could be worth it. Living to say 60 and having a great, fun life full of adventure, to me, would be better than living to 70 and spending much of your life in a job you hated and just surviving.

I haven't got that many to spare...

I'm already extremely attractive and being famous is the worst thing I could imagine.

Famous no, rich yes

Famous, no thanks. Harrison Ford put it well IMO:

"There's nothing good about being famous. You always think, 'If I'm successful, then I'll have opportunities.' You never figure the cost of fame will be a total loss of privacy. That's incalculable. What a burden that is for anybody. It was unanticipated and I've never enjoyed it. You can get the table you want in a restaurant. It gets you doctor's appointments. But what's that worth? Nothing."

Extremely attractive, meh. I sowed my wild oats just fine during the single years, now settled down so the payoff would be minimal.

Now, add "so rich you'd never have to work again" and we might have a conversation ;)

fuck no, I want to live to be 200 :2 cents:

:1orglaugh

:2 cents::2 cents:, I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks this! ^^

It's, sorry had to be done :)

are you the devil??? :uhoh

I'm confused..

I might.. but it depends on by how many years?

This :2 cents::2 cents:

For money yes, but for fame, no.

I wouldn't want fame. Nothing about fame intrigues me. However having millions of dollars... Fuck yea.

Does the fame come with money?

Looks, no...

no cos I already am

Easy answer.

Yup...

yeah, why not?

Give up the last 10 years of my life where I'm old and probably in pain to live the early years of my life as a filthy rich, famous person?

I do suppose it matters what I would be famous for. This could be one of those devil trick questions where you get your wish and suddenly you're in prison for life for being the world's most famous bank robber and you hid your billions somewhere else but you'll never actually get a chance to spend it. The devil is tricky like that. lol

But if I could choose it all down to the details, and design every aspect of my life and health, while keeping those around me and not losing anyone in the process, then yes, I would trade my last 10 years for it if I could design it all.

Hell no. Life is good... the whole thing, the ups and downs, the adventures, the quiet times of contentment, the scary terrible times..... all of it. I want to live as long as possible to see how things come out for my son.

If you are unhappy with your life, and willing to trade 10 years of it in exchange for material goods, odds are you wont be one bit more happy if you got it. Learn to love what you have, and work for what you want.

agreed. I would take it.

Only if i know how much will be here i would think about it :)

Gimme the loot, gimme the loot!

am i the only one that wouldn't want to look different or what?

why would being famous be good for anything? unless it were for something important and good anyway.

No. Fame and good looks are overrated anyway.

does anyone over 75 really have a "good enjoyable" life?

Fuck no.

For things as vapid and shallow as Famous/Extremely Attractive? Nope.

If living to 100, yes.

Living to 50, no

Sounds like the movie with Brendon Frasier where Elizabeth Hurley plays the devil

Yeah if they are healthy.

All comes down to shit they ate most of their lives. If you're basically in a wheelchair or "scooter" at 75 then hell no it's not a good life.

But if you can keep yourself looking and feeling good then why not have a good life? Especially if you're rich too.

Just saw The Rolling Stones on May 11th. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards are 70 years old this year. Charlie Watts is 72.
They looked like they were having a very, very good life. Mick Jagger was jumping and dancing and singing for almost 3 straight hours.

On the other hand...I've seen guys at 50 years old who needed to be rolled into a grave and buried. :(

I wouldn't mind knocking 10 years off; give me the fame, I hate lines.
