If I would get killed now, my future me wouldn't care because

a. I would be dead and nothing (if there is nothing, it is not possible to care)
b. I would be in heaven (heaven, on all accounts, seems to be a pretty good place to be, as well as being forgiving and stuff)
c. I would be reborn and wouldn't remember having lived before, or if I did, would have a chance to do it again...

I would care right now if I were about to get killed. However, after the fact, I wouldn't anymore assuming any one of these scenario's is true.
