Sometimes it seems that too much emphasis is put on living to be as old as possible. Especially when it is reported as cause for alarm that your country is falling behind other countries when it comes to life expectancy.
Also, when you see medias report on some very old person having their 100-and-something birthday, it as though it is important in itself to get old. But aside from their reaching very old age, there is not always that much impressive about them.
The important thing should be to live well.
I think 60 is unnecessarily early, though. It is not as if the conditions you mentions begin at 60, and you can probably live healthily and well for longer than that.
IIN that I don't understand why people would want to live past 60s?
