Q #32
Would you accept twenty years of extraordinary happiness and fulfillment if it meant you would die at the end of the period?

Of course the crux of this question isn't that you get extraordinary happiness and fulfillment, it is that you get 20 years of remaining life guaranteed! Since tomorrow is promised to no one, I'll take the 20 years.
Sure! When can I sign up?
Yup! I have no desire to grow extremely old. Quality rather than quantity works for me!
WOW!!
See ... I am thinking ... 20 years ... I'll only be 67 .... that is beginning to sound young to me, LOL!!
If I am happy and fulfilled then that means Robbie has done well in life .... good job, wife, kid(s). And I would hate to leave those kids without their paternal grandmother ...
Plus .... I am pretty durn happy right now ...
Live fast, die young. Leaver a good looking corps. James Dean was not all that wrong.
I'll take one please!
Given my age, and the fact that I am 6 years into such a time, I will take 20 more just like the last 6.
At 45 I would definetely take the extraordinary happiness and fullfillment. There is only one thing that I ask in return if I am permitted. I ask that it be a wife that will also receive the same gifts. That way it can be shared which is what life is all about.
I sure would. I'd take the 20 years guaranteed, especially knowing they would be great years..sign me up as well.
