Chris Daley Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 After good men spend a lifetime grinding their hands down to the bone for nothing, we are met with either cancer or heart disease. How about you? Which one do you think you will get first? I would like cancer first. It seems more gradual amd less sudden. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaywalker2 Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Heart attack. It runs in the family and my blood pressure is too high so it's more or less inevitable. I just hope I go quickly. Fortunately, there isn't any cancer in my family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaiyaTH Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Sorry but this topic lacks the basic intelligence before it was even opened. Do you really not understand this yourself? First of all, we can't control or decide to get a (deadly or late detected) cancer at any random age. Secondly we can't control the same thing with a heart attack. To talk about ''not smoking reduces the heart attack chance with 20%'' is complete BS, sure it's nice to add on if you can, but in terms of actual odds or percentages insignificant AKA big BS. Anyways, if you want to worry as a male in general, and look at pension ages at the same time, I can educate you quickly: 1/4 male die before 65. Even more before 70 and 75. They tell you to work until around that age, and most of you plan to live the good life from 50-55. I tell you now once only: you are doing it wrong if that applies to you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the reality of the odds, nothing personal. Chances might be higher to just die of a random accident in the first place. To plan life, at retirement ages, decided be employers, is the entire brain<deleted>. One should live and plan life, as if it doesn't even last after 50-55. If people did that, everything after would be bonus, and most make it until 50-55 too. Edited May 27 by ChaiyaTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaiyaTH Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 (edited) Knew a guy in Chiang Mai, from Austria, never smoked drinked or did girls, lived here since many years though. I always felt sorry for him; he lived such a boring life, never enjoying a single thing, but apparently so healthy. Guess what happened? No joke here. He was like late 30s or early 40s, collapsed at Central festival chiang mai + death on the spot. I guess except for a small circle nobody even knows today he died, because he was such a boring person. To then take in mind that he worried about health all the time.

Ehh yeah right, until you find out at stage 4 and your gone 2-6 months later, while suffering hardcore on a hard attempt chemo anyway. Trust me a heart attack + done is better. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post soi3eddie Posted May 27 Popular Post Share Posted May 27 (edited) Had cancer already aged 47 and successfully treated and clear for 10 years so far. Good annual checks. So, will I get cancer again or a heart attack? Hopefully neither but it focuses one's thoughts on living life to the fullest.

He's probably weak willed and/or in denial but, as an ex-smoker I can confirm that my system works a whole lot better without puffing cigarettes all day - about 20% better so the claim probably checks out.

retarius Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 Suicide, if I can maintain my sanity while I am dealing with the cancer. Somehow I think it will be prostate cancer that gets me. There are no heart attacks and not too many cancers in the family (blood relations). Any cancers have been limited to breast and ovarian cancers. On the other hand diabetes is rife....

Survived each , kind of, but a lifetime of (functional alcoholism) will do that to a bloke. I've tapped on the brakes @ 73 but no real regrets as I've nothing to compare it to. Enjoy life's little pleasures. What money I never spent on myself I spent on those who took care of me when I needed it most.
