Would depend on the 5 years I think... 110-105 sure, less likely as you get younger..

Heh, morbid 4000th post.

The last 5 years generally suck anyways


Agree, hard not to take this deal, unless you're already a multi-millionaire.

As long as it is the last 5 years, not so easy if you suddenly age 5 years upon acceptance of the 5M.

Depends on what years. 40 instead of 45...no. 85 instead of 90...hell yeah.

Not having $$ can cause stress to shorten your life.... You may end up ahead...

That was my first thought. But not just stress, it just costs a lot of money to keep yourself healthy

Just wondering, though, how could the bet be graded? Either in this world or a science fiction one?

One of the conditions of the deal must be that the giver of the $5 mil must know when you're going to die. If you are 40 at the time of the deal and you are going to die when you are 45 before the deal then you die immediately if you take the deal.

I would have to know at what age I was going to die before taking the money.
