Is it better to die young or old?

I'll take the full meal deal, please. You may lose your youth and vitality as you age, but you gain so much wisdom and peace (if you pursue it) - it's definitely something to look forward to.

I am an aged care nurse so listen to me when I tell you die in your 60's getting old sucks.

I've seen old people who where bitter and miserable. For them it probably would have been better if they'd died young. I've seen young people so jubilant and happy, so free and loving. They probably deserve to live long. They might not though. Bad things can happen to good people and life is unfair sometimes.

I hope I can live a long time, but sometimes I wonder if I will though. Sometimes I wonder if I'd really want to. Sometimes I wonder.

Why don't you ask the ones who died young if they would have wanted to live longer, or are they happy to be dead. What, and the question did make any sense?

It depends on how happy you are, and how happy you think your future can bring. If being old is being miserable, then it may be better to die before that.

Middle-aged. You're old enough to know that the world is a terrible place, and you're young enough to still look good in your casket.

Old.
