Living To 500: What Would Happen If We Started Living Really Long?

Living To 500: What Would Happen If We Started Living Really Long?

Mere Mortals

Don't worry Mere Mortalites, we promise to still be doing the podcast until at least deep into our 400's!

In Episode #280 of 'Musings' Juan and I discuss: living to 500 but with a constant degradation of body/mind, why Euthanasia might become a common/noncontroversial topic, why the money system and one's perspective of time would radically change, the core memories we would still keep across the decades, whether people would voluntarily choose to live that long and how you wouldn't really care about your great great great great great great grandson.

As always, we hope you enjoy. Mere Mortals out!
