If you plan to get older for a long time, you might visit a few of those assisted living centers, and hope that some day you can play bingo with the ladies.

Both my folks are in their mid to late 90's. Both live in separate assisted living facilities (divorced years ago, but friends).
I wouldn't wish their present living condition on anyone. Very depressing.

Both of them beat cancer in their late 70's and early 80's.

Knowing what I know now, if I get something like cancer late in life I'm not going to fight it. I'd much rather burnout bright.
